i might be wrong but i am under the impression that only the mass of the object determines it's gravity pull. regards

you mean an electron will not annihilate with a anti-proton because they are difference things but an electron will indeed annihilate an anti-electron as will a proton and an anti proton? if so, yeah i kinda got that, but thanks for the clearing up regards

hi ive just started reading about antimatter my question is quick: when the antimatter is created, will it only annihilate with it's original twin matter or can it annihilate any other matter?

the crooks meter appears to be somewhat of a hocus. never the less, i'm still into having light move stuff at high speed. i thought about magnetic photons - which to my understanding would be able to create a repel between light and material but i think i've found my answer: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_photon well good luck to any scientists out there if they are to discover magnetic photons. im somewhat disappointed and my theoretical repel spaceship has crash landed.

ya thanks for that im disappointed at the current favorite light based propulsion system it seems neanderthalic but looking at history and sail boats there might be a pattern there and hope for the future in light propulsion. cheers!

hi maybe i won't get a full explanation to the possibility to my idea but still i would like to hear some thoughts on my idea on moving a spaceship at the near speed of light (or possibly at the same speed or beyond, idk, this is theoretical thinking) if light could repel material we could build a spacecraft made of this material and expose it to light making it accelerate to at least the speed of light. so yeah that there is my idea. two things come to mind that would create chaos in this construct. 1- the violent instant acceleration of the spaceship when exposed to light; 2 - the disintegration of the spaceship going at the speed of light, if it resists the instant acceleration. maybe we can control the amount of "repel" the spaceship has toward light and create a secure acceleration. but in general, what do you think of this? and if you could point me to some online wikis on why this would not be possible or possible that would be great. thanks
