I seem to remember this one as: If you do that, you'll shread the fabric of the universe, because it's not possible . No object can go the speed of light, and relativity doesn't apply to speeds approaching c. It's been a few years, and theoretical physics was never my particular cup of tea (it doesn't involve gears... ), so correct me if I'm wrong.Energy is matter, matter is energy. Everything can be expressed as an eV. Wow... that was a fun class. Good times. John |

And Trav, those are screams of joy. The animals shriek, "oh fair karthik, please further indulge us with the beauty that is your voice..." To stay on topic, here's a favourite of mine: "A man of Toronto is shaved by the Barber of Toronto if and only if the man does not shave himself. Does the barber shave himself?" |

Or, I could just plug the Theory of Relativity in there and say it's impossible to go the speed of light because the energy required to move an object the speed of light would become infinite, but that'd be no fun. ![]() |

That sounds like a fun idea... File "shave Karthik's head" under -- "Good ideas for 2005 Bets". I'm sure no one has heard the last of this. Good one Trav. |

Re: Unanswerable Questions!!
More unanswered questions:
Why is the pound sign called the pound sign? Why is Jesus the only biblical character who has a last name? Why is it that when you blow at a dog's nose they run away but when you take them for a ride in the car the first thing they do is stick their heads out the window and into the wind? In Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, didn't you find it disturbing that the Oompa Loompa's didn't wear hair-nets? (That one came from a cool movie that had a lot of unanswered questions.. But it's rated R, so I'm not going to mention it publicly.. You want to know the movie's name, PM me.) |

Special Theory of Relativity! If v1 = v2 = c (you travelling at the speed of light AND the light), you have a a division by zero, so it's impossible to travel at the speed of light. Remember: m = m0/(1 - (v^2/c^2))^1/2 (where m0 is the inertial mass) You'll need a bigger, and bigger, and bigger (...) Energy... I'd like to know how those guys do that in the movies! ![]() |

![]() Okay, to be serious, a lot are explained as either cutting a hole in space (ala the Einsten-Rosen Bridge, or wormhole), or travelling through time as well as space (when you relize that time slows the closer to C you get). Then there's the occasional "hyper"-space (the ship moves to a different plane, where physics become less effective), folding space (the tesseract, making one place directly next to the other), or warping space (by making the space in front of you smaller so while going the same speed, the distance traveled is less). That's all I can think of off the top of my head. This is turning into an interesting physics discussion. ![]() |
