Intertial propulsion is a concept that has basis in scientific fact and was being discussed in peer-reviewed journals as early as the mid 1990's (and probably earlier than that). This from a confirmed Trekkie.

See above. It's just what a young, wide-eyed, idealistic physicist in-training should be fascinated by. (and no, it doesn't 'defy the laws of physics'.)

I understand inertial propulsion, i'm slightly insulted that you assumed I had never previously learned of it. It's not all that fascinating to me either, but that's just because i'm more interested in the universe than physics itself.

also, i do still believe that every action has a reaction and every cause has an effect - so i'd be more than happy to debate that last bit with you. :)

I'm siding with Newton too, he gets my props everytime.

I bow before your superiour spelling capabilities, good sire. :worship

Of course, I meant 'inertia' but I don't expect anyone will believe me now. :(

No way, I spell terrible-like. However, I've been caughtout before by subtle word similarities in science. :dunce

Can we get back to being needlessly crude now?

I don't mind getting taller, but I have no wash with that dang ol' behavioral maturity thing.

You're already tall enough considering your behavioral maturity level, mr.

i think getting space elevators to work and making ion propulsion more efficient are more practical goals to work for :(

No way, making money is the end goal. Making money quickly.

No fast profit in space, my friend.

SPACE ELEVATOR.

Is that the one that connects earth to space?

Pub Lover

No way, that would suggest the name is descriptive.

IT PROBABLY IS DESCRIPTIVE BUT BEING AS THAT THERE ARE MULTIPLE DESCRIPTIONS IT COULD POSSIBLY BE DESCRIBING I REQUIRE QUALIFIFUCKINGCATION.

Because you're thinking of building one if the description is simple enough?

YES IM CONSIDERING BUILDING A SPACE ELEVATOR FROM MY FIST TO YOUR FACE

yeah a space elevator is a elevator to space, its cheaper than launching shuttles all the time (or should be!) + if we get efficient space travel we can like mine the asteroids or soem sh*t plus then people can vacation on mars or something idk

they should build a Space Slip N Slide for the trip back to Earth. Just sayin.

If a space elevator is anything like Sim Tower's elevators, they are going to be sorely disappointed when they find out how many lobbies they are going to have to build >:
