[@Greg_Chase]

A vehicle with an 'active' metal surface that can quench (eliminate) all inertial drag means the pilot would not feel any acceleration. Since overcoming inertial drag when accelerating is one use of the onboard fuel, a gravitationally active metal hull would reduce the fuel load too. It would be an artificial gravity system using the engineered 'active' hull for propulsion. Instead of a jet engine. The pilot would not feel any inertial drag under acceleration. Because that's what gravity is - an acceleration through space without any inertial drag. That would be disorienting at first due to the lifelong experience all of us have when accelerating in, say, a car or a passenger jet at takeoff. "I feel pushed back deep into the seat when I accelerate the car or in a jet at takeoff.' That would go away. The visual of the ground racing past and no inertial drag would be disorienting/frightening the first time. Then acceptance and a contemplation of the 'novelty' of high acceleration without being able to feel it. Then, like all novel effects - the novelty would wear off. "Oh yeah, that's just using artificial gravity for propulsion." The only time any of us can experience a high acceleration and not experience the 'pushed backward' inertial drag feeling is - jumping off a high dive, or a ladder - Earth being a natural gravity source. A gravitationally active metal hull would leverage gravity for propulsion. .

[@Ibn_Abdulaziz]

It is not the eyes that grow blind, but the hearts inside the chests that grow blind from all the sins it acquired. The pilot sees the vastness of the heaven and earth, the Signs of its Creator, yet he probably thinks that a man is a god (a christian) or that starduat particles created all of that until he turn into dust and vanish into non-existence (an atheist). And then in his private life, he probably subscribes to a people who goes to africa and asks people to define what a woman is? But if it was flipped on him, and he was asked: define God? Did God become a man? He'll be dumbfounded. Their eyes and ears and intellect did not raise them a notch in comprehension. Allah سبحانه وتعالى said, وَيَجْعَلُونَ لِلَّهِ مَا يَكْرَهُونَ وَتَصِفُ أَلْسِنَتُهُمُ الْكَذِبَ أَنَّ لَهُمُ الْحُسْنَىٰ ۖ لَا جَرَمَ أَنَّ لَهُمُ النَّارَ وَأَنَّهُم مُّفْرَطُونَ They assign to Allah that which they dislike (for themselves), and their tongues assert the falsehood that the better things will be theirs. No doubt for them is the Fire, and they will be the first to be hastened on into it, and left there neglected. [An-Nahl 16:62] وَقَالُوا مَا هِيَ إِلَّا حَيَاتُنَا الدُّنْيَا نَمُوتُ وَنَحْيَا وَمَا يُهْلِكُنَا إِلَّا الدَّهْرُ ۚ وَمَا لَهُم بِذَ‌ٰلِكَ مِنْ عِلْمٍ ۖ إِنْ هُمْ إِلَّا يَظُنُّونَ And they say: "There is nothing but our life of this world, we die and we live and nothing destroys us except time." And they have no knowledge of it: they only conjecture. [Al-Jaathiyah 45:24] قَدْ عَلِمْنَا مَا تَنقُصُ الْأَرْضُ مِنْهُمْ ۖ وَعِندَنَا كِتَابٌ حَفِيظٌ We know that which the earth takes of them (their dead bodies), and with Us is a Book preserved (i.e. the Book of Decrees). [Qaf 50:4] أَوَلَيْسَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ بِقَادِرٍ عَلَىٰ أَن يَخْلُقَ مِثْلَهُم ۚ بَلَىٰ وَهُوَ الْخَلَّاقُ الْعَلِيمُ Is not He Who created the heavens and the earth, Able to create the like of them? Yes, indeed! He is the All-Knowing Supreme Creator. إِنَّمَا أَمْرُهُ إِذَا أَرَادَ شَيْئًا أَن يَقُولَ لَهُ كُن فَيَكُونُ Verily, His Command, when He intends a thing, is only that He says to it, "Be!" - and it is! [Ya-Sin 36:81-82]

[@Ibn_Abdulaziz]

And then if you ask him, why are you flying that plane? He will say: to defend liberty, life and pursuit of happiness from foreign and domestic threats. And if you question him on that by saying: If your founding fathers now claimed that God gave them liberty, life and pursuit of happiness: A) Then could an american say that God gave him the liberty to take satan as a god? B) If not, is liberty then restricted to only taking God as a God? C) Or did satan trick your fathers by opening a door for himself by way of liberty? D) If liberty allows you to take satan as a god, are you defending that? And why did your fathers rebel against the english kings? E) If the english kings argued: _"Since your newfound liberty gives you the right to rebel against us and also take satan as a god, then do we have an argument to be taken as gods by americans too?"_ Conclusion 1. Thus, either you will have to restrict liberty to only taking God as a God, hence only Islam becoming the only allowed religion. 2. Or you'll have to widen the door of liberty for the english kings too, thus nullifying your right to rebel against them. They mention God being the granter of their rights just to avoid taxes and lie about God granting them the liberty to take others as gods besides Him. But if the english kings were to have flipped that on them, then they would've restricted liberty, not because liberty violates God's Rights, but to prevent the english kings from imposing taxes on them. Allah سبحانه وتعالى said, أَمْ أَنزَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ سُلْطَانًا فَهُوَ يَتَكَلَّمُ بِمَا كَانُوا بِهِ يُشْرِكُونَ Or have We revealed to them an authority (a Scripture), which speaks of that which they have been associating with Him? [Ar-Rum 30:35] مَا لَكُمْ كَيْفَ تَحْكُمُونَ What is the matter with you? How judge you? أَمْ لَكُمْ كِتَابٌ فِيهِ تَدْرُسُونَ Or have you a book wherein you learn, إِنَّ لَكُمْ فِيهِ لَمَا تَخَيَّرُونَ That you shall therein have all that you choose? [Al-Qalam 68:36-38] وَيَعْبُدُونَ مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ مَا لَا يَنفَعُهُمْ وَلَا يَضُرُّهُمْ ۗ وَكَانَ الْكَافِرُ عَلَىٰ رَبِّهِ ظَهِيرًا And they (disbelievers, polytheists) worship besides Allah that which can neither profit them nor harm them; _and the disbeliever is ever a helper (of the Shaytan) against his Lord._ [Al-Furqaan 25:55]
