Question 3-Level Roadway Engineering
I'm the city designer for a new city we're calling Morrowville. Having some of the worlds top minds, flying cars have been invented, but can only fly a few feet (2-4) from the ground and not everyone has made the switch, so roadways are still required. I've proposed a number of traditional roadways t...

Question How can I make a Venusian computer?
In my story, the humans of Earth have finally made the trek to Venus, and have discovered a previously unknown life form on Venus. On closer inspection of the mucus creatures, they seem to have the Terran equivalent of a computer, and are beginning a new technological era similar to the 2000 dot-com ...

Question How can my creature use explosives to get the maximum bite force/speed?
I have a creature in which its main feature are its alligator-like jaws. It's carnivorous, incredibly aggressive, and is a reptile. Let's call them boom-agators. Now reading through many different alligator and crocodile bite forces, they have a bite force of 3,700 pounds per square inch, or 16,460 ...

Question Can urine be used for radiation shielding?
I'm looking to use water as a radiation shielding device, but do not want to waste space on my ship with waste and other water byproducts. Rather than just storing waste, I plan to use it as part of my radiation shielding, particularly the urine. A bit of background on my ship. The ship is not large...

Question How big does a 2D maze need to be to take two centuries to fully map it?
I was reading a question and had a follow-up question with a story idea that I'd like to develop more fully. The idea is a HUGE maze, thousands (or more) of square miles, that has small clearings created in it with magical happenings within them. It will have multiple biomes, but the main character ...

Question How can I hide my island?
I'm a supervillain. I have no name, but you can rest assured my intentions are dubious and always result in general harm. My biggest problem these days are these pesky superheroes keep finding my lairs and destroying them. Now I may be rich, but these places are expensive, and I hate having to const...

Question Are multidirectional rings on a planet possible?
So I'm looking to add rings to a planet, but I'd like it to appear to be an atom (like a 3-D model with the electron trails) using the dust and debris from collisions long past. My idea is to weave the rings into sort of a basket pattern, getting further and further away with each ring (a couple mi...

Question How can I create a stationary planet?
I'm looking to not tidally lock my planet, but place it between two suns that rotate around each other. The goal is to have constant sunlight on all sides of the planet and for the suns to rotate at a constant speed relative to the planet. I want to clarify, I don't want the planet to relocate within...

Question What is the highest pressure any life form could theoretically survive in?
I'm working on a quest (Space game, but don't ask, it won't be good in anything but story and even that may be a stretch. XD), and I'm looking to use our solar system, Jupiter and Saturn specifically, as a point of farming for my main character (He-3, yknow), and I want them to come to the discovery ...

Question How many plants does it take to breathe?
I'm working on a space story in which an astronaut is travelling to Neptune to validate our CurrentEarthâ„¢ corporation's findings regarding our Solar System. The setting is a moving ship similar to the Mars home base in The Martian, but I came across a bit of a boondoggle, he needs to breathe! Being t...

Question If I had an alien race, how would they interpret our numerical characters as being numbers?
So say we discovered aliens through a wormhole near Saturn (Interstellar anyone?). Congratz to us! But we have a bigger issue in trying to communicate with them. They developed in a completely different way than us, but their general physiology is the same (Bi-pedal humanoids that utilize vocal chor...
