ETsuckers Posted May 23, 2003 #1 Share Posted May 23, 2003 The old adage, the faster one goes the heavier and larger the mass becomes is true in one case only. A paired coupled state between gravitational mass and inertial mass. Which was assumed to always be linked together. This early premise was false. In fact even if one used Eiensteins early equation E=MC2 when converted to a harmonic formula shows that the actually speed limit is not the speed of light or © but the speed of light squared! Even then it only applies with assumption the two states of mass are tied together and they have been proven false for a number of years, which opens an infinite speed limit!!! Mathmatically and proven by physics theory. Wow what a pandoras box..... Undoutedly, the processing computing power to calculate where one would arrive, not too mention whats there at that time would be tremendous the greater the distance traversed. But it can be done scientifically today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djdodo Posted May 25, 2003 #5 Share Posted May 25, 2003 That is Funny Guys I do not know if it has any relation but ... every 10 bllion years = one light year and that is such a long time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saru Posted May 25, 2003 #6 Share Posted May 25, 2003 every 10 bllion years = one light year Thought I'd just chip in here Dj. A 'Light Year' is a measurement of distance, not time. It is the distance that light can travel in the space of one year. The distance of 1 Light Year is 9.46x10^15 metres approx. What you've said above is like saying 30 seconds = 2 metres. I'm not sure where you read that, but it's basically nonsense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted May 25, 2003 #7 Share Posted May 25, 2003 I've also read somewhere the color blue = 4 ounces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kismit Posted May 25, 2003 #8 Share Posted May 25, 2003 only when you lick it Homer . Otherwise it only wieghs 2.5 ounces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delacorr Posted June 15, 2003 #10 Share Posted June 15, 2003 and that is such a long time Yea, but if people really wanna move a lightyear away, however long it takes, it is possible that onboard generations can be..made..so that they cud get there but by the time you reach your destination, the technology would be so many centuries out of place, youd be screwd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueDarkness Posted June 24, 2003 #11 Share Posted June 24, 2003 I think once they got little microscopic particles to go faster than the speed of light-some people tried to disprove it or something so it never made breaking news Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimm Posted June 24, 2003 #12 Share Posted June 24, 2003 only when you lick it Homer . Otherwise it only wieghs 2.5 ounces. interesting..........how do you lick a color.......and why would you want to do that???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blood Angel Posted July 24, 2003 #13 Share Posted July 24, 2003 a light year is approx 7 trillion miles if that any use to anyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted July 29, 2003 #15 Share Posted July 29, 2003 5.88 trillion miles is more accurate, but when dealing with numbers that large, saying ‘approximately 7 trillion miles’ is close enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uranium101 Posted July 30, 2003 #17 Share Posted July 30, 2003 how do you lick the color blue? if you are making fun of it, it's my favorite color so LAY OFF. except you kismit. you can laugh at it all you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tendo Posted August 21, 2003 #18 Share Posted August 21, 2003 did anyone else read that article about the scientists that shot a beam of light into a box filled with a special gas, and this gas somehow made the light move faster, as the beam had already left the box before it had even finished entering? thats just mind boggling, but also awesome!

ITS_ME!!! Posted September 11, 2003 #19 Share Posted September 11, 2003 Okay wait a second here. I did a little searching and came up with this: THEORY . This might help you get a better idea of what the speed of light really is. This was made independantly by one person so you or others may have a second opinion. And of course we'll never truly know the speed of light until we witness it ourselves... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted September 12, 2003 #20 Share Posted September 12, 2003 And of course we'll never truly know the speed of light until we witness it ourselves... This really depends on what you mean by "we". If by "we" you mean you and me, then perhaps you're right. We personally haven't witnessed(or calculated) the speed of light, so how can we be sure of it's true speed? But if by "we" you mean we humans, than you are wrong. Through particle acceleration, we can accurately measure the speed of light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted September 14, 2003 #22 Share Posted September 14, 2003 siphis, If you follow the thread, you will notice dj said "every 10 bllion years = one light year" Of course we all know this is nonsense, and after SaRuMaN corrected her, he gave an example of something as equally nonsense: "What you've said above is like saying 30 seconds = 2 metres" Then I continued sarcastically by stating my own version of nonsense: "I've also read somewhere the color blue = 4 ounces" Kismit then added onto my statement: "only when you lick it Homer . Otherwise it only wieghs 2.5 ounces" Uranium then said: "how do you lick the color blue?" So this is nothing more than continued silliness starting from dj's erroneous statement relating time and distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schadeaux Posted September 14, 2003 #23 Share Posted September 14, 2003 I tried some blue once. Tasted more like purple. Maybe had a touch too much red in it. My friend, Myron, insists it tastes like chicken. And Myron is blue, too, so he should know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
