Starship Warp Drive Babble...

http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn18532-starship-pilots-speed-kills-especially-warp-speed.html

Interesting article... check out the comments below the article.

Here are my favorites.

The way the article is written one would think they know for sure - like they had a warp drive. This stuff is old hat and anyway:

1) It would be easy to ionise the on-coming interstellar hydrogen. It would then be easy to deflect it by a magnet and the Lorenz force F = qv x B. The faster the force the more the deflection.

2) Warp drive isn't actually moving through space but moving a bubble of space through space such that locally speed doesn't violate 'c'.




CAN YOU BELIEVE THES NERDS?
