Coastie Patriot GLP'er For life ![]() User ID: 73191545 ![]() 03/16/2019 10:06 AM ![]() Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Intelligent alien races could travel through interstellar space unseen by firing LASERS into orbiting black hole pairs to create high-speed 'halo One Ivy League Astronomer says humans could achieve fuel-free interstellar travel by harvesting energy from binary black holes in a brand new method dubbed the 'Halo Drive.' Theoretically, said David Kipping, an astronomer at Columbia University, aliens could already be using that technology without our knowledge. The Halo Drive method of propelling a spacecraft would work by utilizing 'gravitational mirrors' – a region of a black holes that swallows up matter and shoots it back out in exactly the same direction – to absorb the holes' energy. The search for intelligence amongst the cosmos is often guided by considering the possible activities of hypothetical advanced civilizations and the associated technosignatures that would result,' said Kipping in a study published in the journal AirXiv. 'Along these lines, this work has considered how an advanced civilization might utilize the light sailing concept to conduct relativistic and extremely efficient propulsion.' Scientists have observed that when photons enter a gravitational mirror and are subsequently shot back out, they not only gain velocity from their journey, they also retain some of the kinetic energy from the visit. Kipping says using those returned photons, which are called 'boomerang photons,' interstellar travelers could theoretically use the harvested energy to travel at a velocity 133 percent greater than the black hole. daily mail less 50 [link to www.dailymail.co.uk (secure)] Coastie Patriot SIC SEMPER TYRRANIS THE SAME PEOPLE WHO SAID NO GUNS BECAUSE OF POLICE NOW WANT TO DEFUND THE POLICE!!!! Dr Thaddeus They They don't really care whether the truth gets out, because the public no longer knows what's meant by "the truth." Well, I mean, no one can tell the difference anymore between what's real and what's fake. Anyway, the point is, I can tell you all of this, right out in the open, because it doesn't matter who knows about it. They won't know whether to believe it or not.- X Files: Lost art of Forehead Sweat A gun is a tool, Marion, no better or no worse than any other tool, an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that. -SHANE- Jefferson Smith: You see, boys forget what their country means by just reading The Land of the Free in history books. Then they get to be men they forget even more. Liberty's too precious a thing to be buried in books, Miss Saunders. Men should hold it up in front of them every single day of their lives and say: I'm free to think and to speak. My ancestors couldn't, I can, and my children will. Boys ought to grow up remembering that . - MR Smith Goes To Washington- to grow up remembering th My oath to support and defend the constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic has no expiration date!!!
