I'm not the best at math; I'm just starting my algebra. But I have much interest in math. Math is what makes things up. Math is science and science needs math for understanding. Math is understanding general equations 1+1=2 which could be part of the mathematics of Speed of Light travel. This is one of my goals. I want to help get closer to this scientifically advancement or figure it all out. My ultimate goal is to figure it out and then do it.
I study writings occasionally of great scientists and their theories. I have to read them with dictionaries and read them over and over until I begin to understand, but it expands my intelligence and understanding.
One of these writings that I came across today is "Einstein's Unified Field Theory with Teleparallelism." This theory is really hard to understand, and the mathematics it shows I don't understand at all. But in the writings he takes the time to let you understand them and explains them on how they are mathematically correct.
This theory has given me encouragement and implanted a new idea and thought of the way speed of light travel may be possible for a human. A problem is gravity; this is a problem but also could help achieve such an accomplishment. Another problem is electromagnetic fields. This again could pose as a problem or help achieve this accomplishment. Using the "Unified Field Theory based on Riemannian Metrics and Distant Parallelism" and the deep connection between energy and mass is expressed in the equation E=Mc² and other theories yet to be read and meditated upon could unlock the mathematics of speed of light travel.
The next thing is figuring the technology to do this. You must learn new technology and make new technology to be a vessel. That is if there will be a vessel to take a human body this fast. This vessel would have to not conflict with gravity and electromagnetic fields as much as any known metallic material. The simplest things of copper wires or plastic or rubber could have effects on changing gravitational or electromagnetic fields.
Now if somehow we can break down an organic into something like radio waves (not saying it has to be radio waves) it could travel at the speed of radio waves. But to control where they go is one problem, if we ever use this technology for this project, if one ever comes out. They could be used with X-rays to travel through a vacuum. If the radio waves and the X-rays are traveling in a vacuum, they both travel at the same speed c [speed of light - approximately 186,000 miles/second]
all electromagnetic radiation, of which radio waves and X-rays are examples, travels at the speed c in a vacuum. The only difference between the two is that the frequency of X-rays is very much higher than radio waves.
If, on the other hand, the radio waves or X-rays are propagating through a medium other than the vacuum, their speed will generally be less than c and will depend upon the specific properties of the medium. Thus, in principle, neither can be said definitely to travel faster than the other if the medium is other than the vacuum.
Reconstruction will be another problem we will face. I believe that if we can destruct something that it will be harder to construct something in this experiment. The technology may be years after the deconstruction technology.
No one really knows the exact speed of gravity. All we know is that gravity effects mathematics in this type of thing dramatically. Einstein's theory of general relativity is a basis of what I'm going to work off of.
The human body falls at the speed of around 130 mph. Once it hits this speed it will no longer go any faster without extra help.
*ping pong ball theory*
Comets fly at many different speeds. I have not study much about them. My theory of how comets and other things gain such speeds. If you hit a ping pong ball from outer space towards deep space its speed will stay consistent for ever. As it passes by larger objects than itself it will naturally by the law of gravity be pulled toward it, bending its perfectly straight path. This object may not be large enough therefore not have enough gravity to pull it all the way to it. So the ping pong ball will contuniue in its forward motion. But now that it has turned I believe that this ping pong ball now has an angle of turn to follow as a comet does. If you will notice that comets do not perfectly revolve around an object, they tend to be off set and have an oval or egg shaped set course. The ping pong ball now has a temporary destiny until it reaches another large object and either gets sucked all the way to it or changes it's course a little more. I believe that a comets course is never going to be the same the next time around. Objects are going to always change its path slightly or dramatically.
Now that each object changes its direction each object has a speed affect on the ping pong ball. Each time the ping pong ball passes one of these objects and it affects its path the object is also affecting its speed by changing the path. That small difference pulls the ping pong ball to itself and increases the speed. Each time this happens I believe that it is harder to increase the speed of the ping pong because of its momentum and direction speed put together. Therefore the process will take very long to accomplish great speeds.
This theory has another problem about traveling at the speed of light. Your destination that you choose ahead of time must also calculate these gravitational effects it may have on its path of travel. The calculation will not always be the same. Not even a millionth of a second away will it be the same. Large objects move at great speeds.
Now, if we take a human body and drop it, it will fall at the speed of about 130 mph. If we could "drop" this body "sideways" going around the earth against the rotation of the earth I believe that gravity will increase the speed of the body.
The gravitational effects will want to bring the body to the earth. We would have to find the perfect area away from earth to keep the body from winding towards the earth. Unless the theory from the movie "Lost In Space" could be tested and proved. Or we could do this within the atmosphere and make some sort of thing to keep the body from falling.
Next we have to conquer friction. Friction can be painful and can cause something to have a maximum speed. For this reason we would want to not be in the earth’s atmosphere. Even out of the earths atmosphere there would be electromagnetic friction to deal with. So we would have to get away from the electromagnetic fields and the isophere to conduct this experiment.
Being away from a breathable atmosphere brings another problem of breathing. But breathing air causes friction and also causes pressure variations on intake and exhale.
Pressure variations can cause one to explode at high speeds or "leak." At high speeds a mass tends to want to stretch. When at the speed of light it is stretched in a linear way. But X-rays are not stretched totally straight therefore I believe there is a stretch maximum. Intense stress on the human body and brain can cause black outs due to intense amounts of "G's" or g-forces caused from gravity. When stretched there may be problems "reconstructing" back to the original mass. This could possible be done by slowly slowing down or be abruptly stopped. The abrupt spot could cause death or permanent damage.
Light waves are often reflected and bounced from one object to another quite easily. Light waves stay together by bouncing off of one-another. To keep your traveling subject together without going off in all directions will be another scientifically problem.
Over all the theories must have a theory for a reconstruction after the deconstruction and travel of the subject the theory that will be most affective will be the theory that has the theory that will support the deconstruction theory and travel theory to be able to construct. All theories must work together. All theories must be proven to be able to know if they will work together. All theories are thoughts and ideas of reasonable possibilities. Reasonable possibilities; what all these are.
People may think it may never happen. Others my think it will but not now. I think it will happen when we think serious of it. Just like what the majority of the people thought about heavier than air flying machines we now call airplanes. No one thought it would happen and no one would think of it serious when it was happening.
We can already control where light goes by simply blinding it from everywhere but where we want it to go. We have been on the first step for hundreds of years and didn't even know it. It is possible to create light and point it where we want it. It is possible to change the amount of light. It is possible to change the color and shape of it to make pictures. It is soon going to be possible to travel and control at the speed of light. Put your mind to it and believe it. Someone will make it happen.
