this is a modification of this thread:http://www.scienceforums.net/forums/showthread.php?t=5017&highlight=enterprise with modern/theoretical physics, we could create a cruiser with nearly the same capabilities as the Enterprise NX-01(less capable than NCC-1701[insert letter here]). how would it work(please, no startrek technobabble. (ex. heisenburg compensators))? i was thinking that for propulsion, it could modify the higgs field in the back of the ship(in such a way that it would have enough negative pressure to make repulsive gravity) and have some sort of graviton exchange in the front.

a compressed spring has more energy than an uncompressed spring. gravity is not only affected by mass but also energy. how compressed must a spring be for it to have noticible extra gravity?

if they are points, there is no contraction, for there are no dimensions to contract. i was under the impression that the contraction was done by the object and not the space between two objects.

this thought came to me while making my previous thread. what was used before the cartesian system?

is there a way to graph imaginary values on a cartesian coordinate system? for that matter, is there any other way to graph them?

huh? what can't be measured?

sorry, i wasn't talking about the pic. but, now i am. it looks so fake that it makes me want to hit the person that made it. it looks like they spect 1.07 seconds on it. and, yes, the pants look odd.

critical density is the density needed for space to be flat. i was wrong. visible matter is only 5 percent of criticle density. dark matter is 25 percent. that still leaves 70 percent missing. with that exception, my post was correct. space isn't "nothing" for it can be stretched, compressed, ect. although space and time are relative, spacetime is absolute, which dictates that they are not "nothing."

are those the kind that glow in black light?

the critical density is 5 atoms every cubic meter. observations show about 5 percent of that. that means that overall space is curved. our region of space looks flat for the same reason my town(overall) looks flat. it is much smaller than the rest of the universe. in The Fabric of the Cosmos, Brian Greene says that if the universe were shrunk to the size of the Earth, our observable universe would be vastly smaller than a grain of sand. hence, the observed flatness of space.
