this means you pass out and die before you reach the sun
When he reaches the sun, we all die:
However, at best that idea is only theory. But it might simply be ramblings of
Cnut237. Are you the 237th clone? Or simply the 237th attempt?
If we fire a BADecker at near light speed away from us but directly towards the sun, then its huge relativistic mass mrelBADecker would mean the kinetic energy it/he possesses could conceivably be sufficient to blow up the star, and atomise everything out to the orbit of Mars. Frankly I'm starting to think the whole plan is a bit irresponsible.
BADecker - I understand how much you want to fire yourself at light speed into the sun, but the downside is that in doing so you wipe out all life on Earth. I'm afraid we are going to have to abandon the plan.
That was your idea, not mine... right in the part of your own post you quoted.
Accelerating to light-speed from zero, in a 93 million mile distance, takes way longer than 8.6 minutes.
... which suggests an alternative in which we can all survive, and you can travel at light speed, and the sun doesn't explode. You simply need to lose all of your rest mass m
restBADecker ... not most,
all. I believe there are slimming shakes that can do this. If you can become massless, then you will travel at light speed. The downside for you is that due to relativistic time dilation, you will no longer experience the passage of time at all - the entire history of the universe from beginning to end will become a single eternal present. A bit like lockdown.
Sorry, but no survival. Check out average life expectancies. If circumstances change, expectancies might change right along with them.
The movement of light particles shows us that there is a whole lot we don't know about quantum. We don't know FOR-A-FACT what is annihilated to get light particles to move at the speed they do.
Well, you've just discovered orbital mechanics.
You have finally discovered that I read science fiction.
Well I see my buddy BADecker is staying busy posting and polluting the bitcoin forum with his
usual plethora of nonsensical posts and threads pushing pseudo-science, debunked myths, ridiculous conspiracy theories, sprinkled with the occasional godswill preaching garbage.
Pretty harmless for most sane folk around here I suppose. Albeit, always good for a laugh or two if not just a simple eye roll.
Just throwing that out there for any noobie lurkers who google bitcoin politics and possibly land here so they won’t think this place is a freaking loonybin.
After all, the FE thread went bye bye, so there is progress.
(I will admit to missing the battyshit crazy posts however....)
You're young, yet. If you start to learn things, now, and really start to learn how to think, there is a good chance that you will come up with something worthwhile talking about... in the distant future sometime. If the theories in the OP are developed into reality, and you get on the rocket that goes to Alpha Centauri, Einstein's relativity will make it a far, far, far distant future for those remaining on Earth.
