Super Bullshit.


Electric fans won't move the sail in the slightest, not only does my space craft move, but it accelerates, in a matter of months it would be moving faster than a bat out of hell, imagine, something that massive moving fast.

It doesn't move fast enough to get it anywhere out of our solar system, but it can carry so much fuel, it can hold so many solar panels, it can carry so many passengers, hual so much equipment, that it can be used as a tool to build the, 'Fast stuff'

Re: Real Life Star Destroyer

Gardamorg, I think it's great you are thinking about ways to reach the stars. Ultimately, if the human race is going to survive, we have to figure it out. Maybe one day we'll get there, using the Gardamorg Drive, and we'd love to help you if we can, but, please, try to think these ideas out a little bit more before you post them.

How do you expect to move a 1.6 km ship with only microwave sails? Why only 2000 K? Just that for starters, I haven't even begun listing all of the important details you are missing in your "blueprints".




No, it's not.

After reading this I edited my first post to explain the propulsion part of the Star Destroyer. Thats the hard part of the Craft, next I will edit it to explain, artificial Gravity, shock absorbers so the crew doesn't get turned into jelly, life support systems, how they grow their food, how they live and survive in space for up to 40 years, ect.

Thats not what I do. I post an idea, they tell me whats wrong with it, I edit my idea, until it is complete.

Then I doubt it will be the Gardamorg Drive that takes us to the stars.

Theres really no deference from learning from others than there is going crazy trying to do it all on my own.

They're not giving me the ideas, they're telling me whats wrong with the ones I have, I've learned exactly how to tell the speed of my Crafts from Janus in this thread alone, never mind what I've learned from posting rediculous ideas throughout my entire stay on this site, or from the enternet itself.

If I had stayed off this site, and not posted anything, and learn not through failure, but through a teacher that I might or might not care to even listen to, as you would have me do, I would not know jack shit compared to what I know now.

What you just said was bullshit, and it completely upset me, because now that I care what I will be learning about in the future just as I cared about which star wars craft moved faster in the past.

Re: Real Life Star Destroyer

If you want to develope a drive that takes us to the stars, you will need to know more about it than we do, is all I'm saying. I'm not trying to upset you...just point out that if we knew how to develope such a drive, we would not be talking to you about it.

And all I'm saying is that I wouldn't give a shit about a drive unless it had to do with my car if it weren't for this site.

I have to know the basics of what I like to talk about so that I can learn to excel later in life, blow away math and science teachers so I can get into the 'higher' learning systems. Once I do that I stop with the editing.

No shit sherlock, where did you leave your squad car? You say you have microwave transmitters that transmit their energy to a sail and then that sail drives the ship, same principle, it can't happen. It's the same as perpetual motion. You may as well try to pull your self off the ground by pulling up on your own boots!

It won't move at all if you are using a microwave transmitter to push a sail attached to the microwave transmitter. Come on Gardamorg, you have had some great ideas before, this one is just not workable. You could use the microwave transmitters as direct thrusters but you don't have enough energy to do that.

And that is why I say it won't be the Gardamorg Drive.
