Question	—	Storing 200TJ of Electricity for rapid discharge Here's the problem I'm having. I need a solution for the following situation. I have a sci-fi starship drive that needs 140TJ of energy every 6 hours. I have a Fusion Reactor that can produce 200TJ in that time period. The problem is the Reactors produces 10GW... so I need to store this charge some... (more)	—	about 6 years ago
Question	—	3D Printer / Replicator : Raw Materials and Distribution Cables So let's say you have a starship like in Star Trek and you want a Replicator, but don't have the ability to convert matter to an energy form to pass their electrical cables. Basically you have an advanced 3D printer. What Raw Resources would you need to make just about anything with this device? Cou... (more)	—	over 7 years ago
Question	—	STL Warp usage for transportation around a planet? Assuming the Alcubierre drive can be made to work, there are issues with it, like the creation of black holes and white holes in front of/behind the ship. There is also the having to be on tracks probably thing. Also the field ends up having cosmic ray particles pushed along with the ship which get e... (more)	—	about 8 years ago
Question	—	Which direction would be the best to send a Colony ship off towards? Which direction is the best way to go if you were to have to leave Sol and travel 500 ly away to find habitable planets to set up long term colonies? Core-ward? Rim-ward? Towards the core through the Orion-Cygnus Arm? Towards the Carina-Sagitarius Arm? Is there any difference in the direction? T... (more)	—	about 8 years ago
Question	—	FTL telescope-satellites In this world, as soon as humans invent FTL, they launch "telescope-satellites" (I don't know what to call them) out in several directions. They travel at 10c, can communicate instantly with Earth, and are 10 meters in size (maybe bigger if someone gives me a reason for changing the size). How many ... (more)	—	about 8 years ago
Question	—	Does this matter sound plausible? Does the explanation of this matter sound plausible? A type of exotic matter that allows for generating virtual particles with an energy of 432,541 Mj = 1 uL. The matter is not being converted to energy, but rather it is allowing for the virtual particles to be pulled from another dimension into our... (more)	—	about 8 years ago
Question	—	What would the consequences of this IEG be? In the universe that I am developing the following has occurred... A new type of "liquid energy" has been found/created: 432,540,909,020.0724 Mj in 1 Liter Edit: Description of what the fuel is in case it makes a difference - A type of exotic matter that allows for generating virtual particles with ...

Question	—	Could an Emotional IPA be created? So, I just had an idea inspired by This question here while simultaneously listening to a video about language... Could we make a sort of International Phonetic Alphabet for Emotions and States of mind? And what would it look like? It seems to me that if we could create such a thing it would be inc...

Question	—	What would happen if this FTL drive type concept were used in an atmosphere? So I was working on this concept for a sci-fi story and in this universe it uses a "warp" drive. The Genesis Field is a supra-dimensional field that causes spacetime to be created or destroyed (explaining dark energy), based on the pole of the field. This field used in an interstellar drive works mu... (more)	—	over 8 years ago
