Ingredients:
- wormhole
- Particle accelerator
- space ship
Directions:
1 Find or build a wormhole—a tunnel connecting two different locations in space. Large wormholes might exist naturally in deep space, a relic of the big bang. Otherwise we would have to make do with subatomic wormholes, either natural ones (which are thought to be winking in and out of existence all around us) or artificial ones (produced by particle accelerators, as imagined here). These smaller wormholes would have to be enlarged to useful size, perhaps using energy fields like those that caused space to inflate shortly after the big bang.
2 Stabilize the wormhole. An infusion of negative energy, produced by quantum means such as the so-called Casimir effect, would allow a signal or object to pass safely through the wormhole. Negative energy counteracts the tendency of the wormhole to pinch off into a point of infinite or near-infinite density. In other words, it prevents the wormhole from becoming a black hole.
3 Tow the wormhole. A spaceship, presumably of highly advanced technology, would separate the mouths of the wormhole. One mouth might be positioned near the surface of a neutron star, an extremely dense star with a strong gravitational field. The intense gravity causes time to pass more slowly. Because time passes more quickly at the other wormhole mouth, the two mouths become separated not only in space but also in time.
i tried this before. i encounter some problems though when trying to sabilize my ship's dylithium matrix. usually, i would have to decoupple the dylithium matrtix core when entering the hole.
ReplyDeletei think it has something to do with the ablative shielding of my ship. i will have to find a way to recalibrate my shields to emit a similar wave as the hole to successfully pass through.
have you had any luck?
I think DiLithium is spelled as D-i-L-i-t-h-i-u-m. :D
ReplyDeleteChemical Formula: Li2Te
Composition: Molecular Weight = 141.48 gm)
Lithium 9.81 % Li
Tellurium 90.19 % Te
Empirical Formula: Li2Te
Dilithium is one substance that can safely combine matter and anti-matter into a stable stream.
The Crystal becomes the focal point where the matter/anti-matter injectors fire. The crystals then combine and refract the beam in to the Warp Core. Its kind of like the reverse of a light prism. Instead of only one beam of light hitting the prism and refracting into mutiple beams of light. It does the exact opposite. It takes 2 beams of incompatible energy, combines them to make a single stable beam of energy and fires into the warp core chamber... and voila, you have warp power!!!
I know that it would be possible for the deuterium ions to "channel" through the crystral, provided it is very pure and exactly aligned. The antideuterium is the problem, since it is supposed to have the opposite charge (negative). This would mean the ions would not behave like deuterium and would (under the same conditions) possibly collide with the dilithium nuclei--boom! It would be highly logical to create a condition (high frequency excitation) to make the material porous also for antimatter. Another possibility is to accelerate them to a high speed, so that the deflection in the crystal is minimized.
I guess it goes without saying... I'm geekier than you... :-D
ReplyDeletewhat are the chances that DiLithium will be converted into TriLitium? The latter is a purely waste substance.
ReplyDeleteTrilithium is a radioisotope of Lithium.
ReplyDeleteLooking at the periodic table of elements, there are two natural occuring isotopes of lithium (Li). However, there have been seven additional radioisotopes created through various nuclear reactions. All are extremely short lived (less than 1.0 second).
Chemically the various radioisotopes would be similar to stable, naturally occuring lithium since it would have the same electron configuration. They may have some differences similar to Hydrogen-Deutrium-Tritium. The difference in mass would affect diffusion and other mass sensitive phenomena.
