SCI/TECH: Earth to Mars in 3 hours possible?

I would guess that before they build this thing , assuming they haven't already , would they not build some portion of it on a smaller scale to test the science ?

You would think they could have done something in three and a half years.

Your intuition didn't show you the date of that post just the time. Something that should not have been overlooked. Just playing.

Hey All!

I'm new here so don't jump on me for this but I don't think this is going to happen anytime soon.

Think of the forces that people in that spacecraft would be subjected to. I don't think something this fast could be used for people, but that said it would spare them alotta exposure to radiation.

You guys all realize that the link to the source page doesn't even work, right. (;
He might be just faking this all.

The magnetic field shield will occupies and here link that works www.grc.nasa.gov...

BTW SCREW THE MOON, I WANT GO TO EUROPA.

This seems a bit "Philadelphia Experiment"[size=-4]1 to me.

Me too!

did you hear about the oxygen they discovered?

I suppose that this kind of propulsion system would be a good way to bring back samples from there without them being damaged by radiation.

That link is about 'Warp Drive'. Here is a link to the NewScientist article about Burkhard Heim's Anti-Gravity 'Hyperdrive': www.newscientist.com...

@Larryman
This is fundamentally ground breaking technology, it just too bad it's forbidden.

Yes it would, NASA happen to have an Ion Plasma engine name vasmir that can block radiation by using the magnetic fields that control the plasma. www.youtube.com...

no way...I have heard gravity bleeds across dimensions though

I think I read (somewhere) that the occupants of a ship with this drive would not feel those forces - due to them being inside the anti-gravity field.

Great!

Maybe I can find a job on Mars now. There sure as hell aren't any here anymore

And while we are in the neighbourhood, we could get a good look at Iapetus, and see why it has a bright side and a dark side as well!

In all honesty i've gotta go with the 'Alien Tech' Theory.... apparently just after the 'Roswell' Crash a Scientist has discovered that a Craft can travel at 'Hypersonic speeds through the Universe'.....

It will just take close to a Century to examine & Train our Scientists to figure out how all this works.... once we do we shall travel the Universe.

Most of these UFO sightings here i reckon has been Government testing of these high speed crafts.....
