202. Unexpected effects caused by time travel

Moodles, Wednesday, 9 January 2013 18:37 (eleven years ago) link

Philip Nunez, Wednesday, 9 January 2013 19:07 (eleven years ago) link

REBEL YELL FOR HUGS (Austerity Ponies), Wednesday, 9 January 2013 20:19 (eleven years ago) link

if they could make one directional shields in the future, some wise guy would just flip the polarity on the weapons.
also:

206. reversing polarities makes a gadget do the opposite and saves the day.

214. Every planet ventured to, no matter how remote, has oddly the same exact gravitational force as Earth's.

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Thursday, 10 January 2013 17:19 (eleven years ago) link

^^^ This is why I think "Mission of Gravity" could be a great movie, animated or CGI.

aloo mutter, aloo fatter (WilliamC), Thursday, 10 January 2013 17:24 (eleven years ago) link

Plot: after thousands of years of travel, the surviving 1% of the ships crew (not killed in stasis from high-speed collisions with particles, radiation, equipment malfunction; etc) finally land on the destination planet and collapse upon disembarking due to poor health and high gravity. They are unable to move. They slowly starve to death.

REBEL YELL FOR HUGS (Austerity Ponies), Thursday, 10 January 2013 17:28 (eleven years ago) link

215. Ships' artificial gravity works at right angles to the direction of thrust rather than with it, as would make far more sense.

I wish to incorporate disco into my small business (chap), Thursday, 10 January 2013 18:09 (eleven years ago) link

if i'm getting what you mean i think that's a corollary of 216. despite there being no ground by which they need to orient themselves, large spaceships manoeuvre through space pretty much like boats, small spaceships like planes.
