Earth-like planet found in Libra constelation

[-Origin]

I wasn't saying that NASA should built one.

I'm just saying they should start digging in Egypt.

 

[Spunky]

100000 years of travel at current tech according to a local news report. Which means if we are at the point where we need to leave this junkball, there might be nothing left there when we get there.

Oh my. Wouldn't we feel stupid if that were the case.

 

[Synth]

Well, we should probably stop wasting natural resources on entertainment, and spend it all on astrophysics.

[Deathshot]

Pingas.

I think its time we get one.

 

[Dead Hunter]

Well those ships can be built, they can go fast (lets say in future fast enough so you get there in 5/10/20 years e.g.) but the problem is why they aren't is gravity issue

To get there in those years you would firstly die because your muscles and entire body would collapse when there is no gravity.

 

[Tenzo]

Then we must invent artificial gravity technology for space ships.

They have some way of doing it, but not fully researched - Vacuum

About the speed - if i recall correctly you gain speed from moment to moment in space (something what comets do) - so firing yourself with some enormous speed would be solution - you would gain speed all the time so maybe to get to that planet wont be sooo long

Problems are firstly breaks - you will land there and become like a Pie or gravity from other planets could slow/faster you or change your course

Gravity wont be a problem if they make cryo stasis chambers

You don't gain speed, but as there is no air and hence no friction, you would not lose speed this assumes no force acts on you, like gravitational fields of stars and planets

You don't need artificial gravity if you work out in space, that's what astronauts do to prevent muscle degradation.

 

[Dead Hunter]

Well its been proved that work out doesn't help

Workout helps only to small distances (Moon) and even there astronauts have problems when they get back with adjusting to gravity-walking (proved )

What about bone degradation/density?
Humans aren't accustomed to live in 0G.

 

[dutchmeat]

Bones AND muscle tissue will degrade with zero gravity, simply riding a few laps on a hometrainer won't fix that.
Too bad there isn't a solution we know about yet.
