Singularity Converter & The Reality of Achieving FTL Interstellar Travel - AsteronX Podcast, Ep6

[@hyperlinguist5687]

Boy! What has happened? Suddenly it is very doable. No longer in the realm of fantasy any more! I'm an engineer and this has a right feel for success!

[@davidripley2916]

What's your take on the ITER fusion concept?

[@Cyborous]

Right What a fascinating universe we live in and amazing time to be alive

[@thegamecrasherthemastergam8485]

Though I'm not sure of you answering the statements (though many thanks if you do): 1. Even if I'm of disagreement with you two on this topic, as I've said before, I enjoy the podcasts and like that you seem to be really genuine and good people and it's especially good to see people pushing the seeming boundaries of physics, even though you do say it's grounded in information we have. Plus, the information is still useful for worldbuilding so I might just have these videos be used as notes of my own 2. You mentioned in your channel the capacity to make both jump drives and warp drives. Considering the clear advantages a jump drive would have, especially given the distances one apparently would be able to do with just fusion, why would you ever use anything besides the Musha drive? 3. When is that scifi series you wanted to make coming out? 4. Wouldn't FTL inherently mean that you have access to interstellar travel? 5. Considering the multiple ways we can use for FTL travel, and with, relatively, limited power needed for a couple of them, do you see any reason to travel at speeds below Light, save maybe getting out of a planets gravity well because ftl and gravity don't mesh well sort of speak? 6. While I stated before that I do find/feel like this kind FTL travel, at the very least this early (unless aliens are involved) is dubious, I do think maybe, and this is a big maybe, FTL travel could end up being a reality. Granted, I believe like this heavily depends on both being able to travel through hyperspace (as it's described in current physics) and a giant Matrioshka brain to figure out how to do it, similar to the Orions Arm setting. So yeah, if we so achieve FTL, personally I believe that it'll be a bit longer down the line. Though I do hope I'm proven wrong.

[@mclason]

Not who you are asking, but figured I'm chime in with my opinion on some of these, mostly with thoughts from other sci-fi series. 4. This assumes humans can survive FTL travel. Though no reason to assume we can't. 5. I would argue it's probably not a bad idea to keep anything that can travel at FTL speeds off of a planet. As Issac Author is keen to remind people, "There is no such thing as an unarmed starship", when it comes to anything capable of traveling between stars. Though that was mostly related to kinetic energy of things traveling near enough to light speed for practical interstellar travel. 6. Fair enough, FTL is closely related to the Fermi Paradox, and easy FTL/interstellar travel (as this video makes it seem like) makes the Fermi Paradox even more mysterious. In the end, if FTL is possible, it merely requires the right breakthrough, and who knows if the break through will happen in a few years or a few millennia or perhaps it already happened and we just haven't realized the implications yet. In the end, the theories on this channel and some others do seem like the closest as far as being able to do it within decades and not centuries if not millennia.

[@thegamecrasherthemastergam8485]

@M Clason 4. I feel like that (could be) dealt with easily enough with the right modifications, with said mods bring dependent on what is damaging the human 5. Agreed 6. Fair enough. However, I'll state it again, I think if anyone or thing is gonna figure it out it's going be a Matrioshka Computer Brain, similar to how Wormholes were first found out how to be made practically in Orions Arm (I believe). Well, unless of course aliens are out and about like the conspiracy theorists say, then it's either we have less advanced versions up and running or we're going be making stuff soon.

[@ivan-Croatian]

Thank you Jesus for leting me find this channel. Of to the stars we go! 😃

[@jonreiser2206]

Dammit Jim, I’m just a music teacher not a physicist. For me, I love hearing about what this exponential curve we are riding will likely produce in the near- ish future. I just need you to dumb it down a little. What I truly seek is hope and excitement about what’s to come. Timeline’s are handy too.

[@khristophertaylor811]

All thingsof matter electrons positrons. Nucleus well stop there to not go sub atomic these things all have frequency which is a note or tone. Being a music teacher if u are not familiar with the work o f John Worrell Keeley look up fascinating

[@ItsCoreyLynxxYall]

Your videos have given me such inspiration since the beginning. I'm glad to see new content out.

[@anderswallin3883]

One thing that pops up in my head here is that, won't it be dangerous to have a singularity close to earth? Would it not consume it? I know that black holes are not as dangerous as you might think, but still. It is a thing that many people will be scared of.

[@marius55555]

I can't wait for your videos. You describe possibilities that is the stuff dreams are made of and finally within our grasp. Getting the popcorn ready!

[@paulprows7048]

Very stimulating though; I'm glad I found this channel.

[@RandomYT05_01]

Seems like the 2063 star trek prediction seems more accurate than we thought. All though I doubt first contact day will be on april 5th, 2063, I believe it may happen sometime in the 2050s or 60s or 70s, somewhere in that ballpark.

[@pauljohnson600]

cool! cant wait for the next 2 videos!

[@stevenfaber3896]

An accompanying study guide for references in the comments would be helpful to allow us to pause and do our own research. I'd probably sit through an hour but a 2 hour class should probably be broken up, perhaps with a small intermission within the video for a leg stretch, snack and hydration break. I also work later so evening uploads would be nice. Overall, cannot freakin' wait!

[@asteronx]

An intermission on longer videos/podcasts is an excellent idea!

[@hashtagnewbie9138]

Sounds a lot like Romulan propulsion technology! This is exciting..

[@thebackyardfamilyoutfitter7284]

Cool concept. Though it Would of been better to listen too if there wasn't so much back and fourth, jumping around.

[@ArthurVaccarino]

Great conversation and content as always - The music is a little distracting. Perhaps you can lower the volume or remove it.

[@HazemA1]

Super excited for the upcoming videos. One of the best channels covering these awesome topics

[@ivan-Croatian]

I would like to know, yes all that exotic technology sounds fantastic and too good to be true, but what about all those small particles in space that could destroy our FTL ship on collision? What is the plan to avoid those during the travel? Maybe some sort of energy shield?

[@thegamecrasherthemastergam8485]

They made a video on it. Whether or not you could actually use it whilst using ftl isn't something I know. For the videos, it's shields up. I would tell you how it works but it's been a while and I'm not a physicist

[@nahCmeR]

Well you're inside of some anti gravity bubble, everything would bend around the ship right? Like how light and everything else essentially bends around a black hole imagine the ship being inside something similar. If you traveled in any direction anything that comes into contact infront of the ship would bend around it and end up on the other side instead of the object even passing through the ship. (My best guess)

[@thegamecrasherthemastergam8485]

@@nahCmeR I'm unsure if being in ftl would mean you would have antigravitic effects. At least from what I remember of their videos, the jump drive kind of just makes it to where you're straight up not interacting with anything on normal space and a Warp drives bubble is way too thin to deflect anything away from you.

[@paulprows7048]

When you divide a very large number by a small number, He said: "you get a very large Sum" The answer to a Division problem is called the Quotient, I believe.

[@danbhakta]

Aside from semantics, isn't everything just a variation of addition? 5x4 is adding 4 with itself 5 times or vice versa. Subtraction is just addition involving negatives.

[@armadasinterceptor2955]

I love that track Pachelbel's Canon in D Major😭

[@mclason]

No clue for the name, but for information, I'm always interested in the limitations or potential issues. When it comes to sci-fi there are generally always limitations/issues to technology, especially FTL. For example, is it safe to use from the surface of the planet or is it something you want to do outside of a gravity well. What are the effects on those within and outside of the ship. Basically all the stuff one might need to write a sci-fi novel that features the technology as one of the "main technologies".

[@quantumac]

A would prefer 20 or 30 minute videos which were organized in a playlist.

[@HoldmyARK]

Sweet!

[@Xilon10]

Building an angar in space would allow humanity to design, build and assemble modules to create a large spaceship in addition, it would allow experimentation and testing of new engines with technology for speeds. extraluminary and superluminary luminaries. in a simpler and faster way.

[@matthew9285]

Beautiful presentation.

[@dustinbennett3297]

This equates to time travel from our perspective. Exponential growth rates in information and technology happening real time.

[@quantumac]

If only we could ask whoever is piloting those UAPs for some practical pointers it would save us a lot of time. I'm not sure if they would help us, or even if it would be wise for them to help us, but it would be cool to ask.

[@nahCmeR]

We definitely have. The top 1 percent of the top 1 percent have definitely had contact, had transfer of technology and its been hidden away from the public for well over 100 years now if not more.

[@quantumac]

@@nahCmeR ​ Anyone can _claim_ anything, but I'd rather find out from _evidence._ Trustworthy independent researchers need to investigate and show evidence for their conclusions. It may well be you are correct and some small portion of humanity has made contact, or at least may have recovered artifacts and are reverse engineering them, but I still want to see the evidence. It's the only way humanity is going to take this subject seriously.

[@bb20245]

When the paper is published can you put a link up please?

[@asteronx]

Yes, we will let everyone know here on KZbin with a complementary video (link included), on Twitter and elsewhere.

[@osmosisjones4912]

What if you can Travel as far back in time as time is moving forward

[@spencer1980]

I'm not a physicist, but I've never encountered this angular momentum equation before, and as a chemist, I find it very hard to believe that the angular momentum of an electron is that high (angular momentum which has been very well described by the Schroedinger equation). Big fan of this channel, but I think you might have misunderstood some variables.

[@asteronx]

Nope, see Robert Forward's book, Indistinguishable from Magic.

[@zefer_frey6446]

[@zefer_frey6446]

Can’t wait for the videos , so exited

[@wulphstein]

Gravity propulsion drive: Step 1: pass a laser through a quantum entanglement crystal. Split the beam into two photon beams p1 and p2. The reason is because spacetime is made of quantum entanglements (massive oversimplification, but still apples and apples). Step 2: Build two separate centrifuges, one meter disk that will be spun at 10,000 RPMs. Along the radius of the disc, you will attach an optical fiber. One of those centrifuges will be for blueshifting the p1 photons. The other spinning disk will be to redshift the p2 entangled photons (beam). Step 3: Build another optical fiber arrangement that will ferry the p1 photons back to the start of the blueshift centrifuge. Similarly, another arrangement that will ferry the p2 photons back to the start position of the redshift photons. Step 4: Blueshift the p1 photons about a million times. Redshift the p2 photons about a million times as well. All of the p1 and p2 photons that have been blueshifted/redshifted a million times, and are still quantum entangled, will store a gravitational potential energy in the entanglement (in the graviton that is between the p1/p2 photon). These entangled photons will be able to curve spacetime enough to create a warp drive.

[@HugoBroad]

i love this

[@MrSuperyeti]

Has this video about the converter come out yet? I can't find anything

[@nil981]

"some people think we are robots" "I will neither confirm nor deny" I thought sciencephile the A.I was the only robot KZbinr in the science sphere.

[@shivammathur1583]

We actually achieved light speed and FTL

[@tonymc9102]

This reminds me of one episode of Star Trek TNG that refers to humans as ugly bags of water.

[@kiedranFan2035]

@ AsteronX did i hear you guys correctly that you can obtain energy from nothing with the rotating backholes? So if there not a conservation of angular momentum law or something like that which forbids you to get more out then what you put in? That is hard for me understand Oh what nevermore, the energy may be coming from the mass that is rotating in this converter itself. So not perpetual butter amount sounded still higher then I thought possible.

[@asteronx]

It is limitless energy, but it's not from nothing. The energy is ultimately drawn from the angular momentum of the entire Universe. There will be a more detailed explanation in future videos.

[@kiedranFan2035]

@@asteronx oh okay, I'll be watching. Also would you be personally surprised if one of your viewers was actually thinking of a modified version of the gravity machine you did a earlier video on?, and using some old off the shelf items? Me personally I'd think it could be easier than thought perhaps. Second that a rather weak magnetic field could work also if rotated around its polar axis fast enough near c to amplify the implied mass driving it. A dipole magnet, with three phase conductive shell around it should deflect its fields in a way that it looks as if it's rotating. Reasoning is that i haven't seen any system where massless object was or could be emmiting a B/e field, unless it is the field itself, like photons, since such objects must travel at c and can't emmit anything. If so a magnetic dipole field should also imply a mass being required to generate it and some of it would be in the field as energy itself. Thus getting a very small amount of it to near enough to c inside electric conductor materials rotating like a pair of dying stars should make the device behave as if it was much heavier shouldn't it? Thereby causing similar effects. That just an idea.

[@eningtu6291]

ONE QUESTION. WHEN DO I SIGN UP ?

[@JRichardson711]

Aren’t tachyons hypothetical?

[@jacobmartinelli7496]

could use a centrifuge, pump and storage tanks to accumulate hydrogen and oxygen in space to use it as fuel

[@PhillyHardy]

Is angular momentum similar to when we get closer to a object with a gravitational field and use it to sling shot our shuttle or whatever around a object? Or when u talk angular momentum are u only talking on the micro scale?

[@omsingharjit]

[@deborahstevens567]

Interesting podcast studying Black holes and the jets from the centre active galaxies these relativistic jets used to be called superluminal jets I wonder if anyone has ever modelled systems because if I was looking astronomical objects that could propel material to FTL speeds I would be looking at these extreme systems such as M87 galaxy the one they took radio image of using the Event Horizon Telescope. Studying Nature in regards this phenomenon might to solving the Symmetry/ Asymmetry Paradox mentioned in Sony White’s paper “Warp Field Mechanics 102” instead of using Lorentz Boost . Not keen on Black Hole Power generation if an accident happens…. I’ve seen things go pear shaped. Interesting BBC video on Muons may be responsible accelerating motion of galaxies so called fifth force of nature maybe your Aneutronic muon drive might be able to go faster than 8% the speed of light ??? Like you said we have to take these baby steps

[@stephenwhitaker8218]

We have been traveling throughout the universe for the last 40 years and we have more plants in our on solar system than we have been told about and we are not alone in our soler system I fact we have 6 deferent races of peoples form local plants and they live in peace they fear us

[@michoxi]

I hope the next videos will actually provide some references to the research that this is based on! Also, don't do the background music, it's just annoying. Still looking forward to the videos

[@Xilon10]

we are in 2021 and the fastest man-made object is the solar parker probe 689 700 Km / h. I would be satisfied if the human being reached 80% of the speed of light. but for superluminal technologies there is a lot to do on earth we do not have the industries to produce exotic materials and to produce a certain type of technology. in france they are taking years to build a 20 mlk euro TOKAMAK.

[@johnbenson3024]

Please update your progress report on the project EOS page! Id love to support more but for everything I’ve been able to see it looks like you’ve just stalled out. Edit: as for video format, I’d prefer 2 hour long videos with topics timestamped and references (such as papers) for each topic clearly listed for a better understanding

[@asteronx]

We're working on an updated version of the website, don't worry, we haven't stalled, just been busy getting some ducks lined up ;) Timestamps are indeed a good idea!

[@deborahstevens567]

Adding another comment for the inter-stellar destinations such as Proxima Centauri (4.23 my) Alpha Centauri A & B, (4.37 my) Sirius (8.58 my) distance. Neglecting acceleration time travelling at half speed of light would take twice as long to travel to proxima Centauri (8.46 y), alpha Centauri (8.74 y),& Sirius (17.16 years) or quarter speed of light four times the light travel time so we will be able to send a space probe before we can do FTL travel but I would like to see FTL a reality my inter wish list would to pictures of the planets orbiting these systems is there life and civilisation there what hazards would there be for future manned missions etc. pity we don’t have any FTL communication systems to get data back quicker such as anti-tachyonic telephone mentioned in the book time travel and warp drives

[@armadasinterceptor2955]

You guys generated a thesis worth of research material but can't recite a formula with 5 variables? It is cruel how you are misleading people with your content.

[@Skylancer727]

Your time frames are way too optimistic. 10 years to make over 20 nuclear power plants is absurd. That's more a 50 year project. As for solar arrays, it can't take off till we have extra planetary habitats to take advantage of it to benefit this project. Ones being used for Earth are not going to be used to make a special singularity drive or tachyon drive. We would need ones built for non-earth use especially since you would need far bigger arrays for earth due to the loses through the atmosphere. Why we still aren't even certain it's viable on earth yet. I also remain skeptical to claims you can make a signularity with lower costs than previous predictions at this point. The value could still be lower, but the main prediction is the entire output of the sun over the course of an entire day. You would need a full dyson swarm to get that much power. Even if we assume it's say half, you still have to cover half the sun with a swarm. Either way that's a multi thousand year project.

[@kiefermattern917]

Energy wise, these kinds of power satellites in a array would probably do the job. Energy efficiency non-withstanding due to infra-red based power transmission systems. Earth's atmosphere is surprisingly amenable to the traversal of IR light. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXS7gKCKh71qfNE Either way these are awesome.
