In Response To: Re: will it go round in circles (Roger Wilco) : Or you can go to the bridge of the PoA and watch it rotate. Noticed this last
whether or not one wishes to invent new physics is what determines whether or not the ring rotates. by today's understanding of gravity, there are two possibilities (or a combination thereof): 1) the ring is massive enough to provide a 1G acceleration (gravity) at its surface. this would be problematic given that it seems to be made of rather plain-Jane granite-type rock, OR, as i have conceived of it in planning my HALO Genesis short, there is a core of ultra-dense material (perhaps degenerate white-dwarf matter?) that would create the necessary gravitational potential; 2) the ring rotates, providing a centripetal acceleration that simulates a planetary gravity well. "artifical" gravity as a generated field just doesn't exist -- what we term gravity is actually just a consequence of the bending of spacetime in the area surrounding a quantity of mass, it cannot be "emitted" the way light can. however, if new physics are invoked, the possiblities are much more open. |
