No, that's ok. You didn't know if I knew about string theory or not.

Quote:One thing that has always bugged me about extremely fast travel is all the interstellar matter. If E=MC^2 then even colliding with a tiny spec of dust would have enough energy to destroy a good portion, if not your entire ship. And that is just one particle. The Oort could surrounding our own system would be nearly impossible to breach at any fraction of the speed of light. Any ideas as to how this problem could be solved? |

Think about how bats fly without running into each other or anything else...we might be able to use some sort of super-sensitive radar to know when the ship is about to run into something, then have it automatically get out of the way and then resume its course.

That's some powerful and sensitive equipment you're talking about there...
