Time travel? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] aebrer@kbin.social 4 points 3 years ago* (2 children) Maybe (or at least an albecuire drive) Maybe Probably not Also some more "basic" things like cheap MRI without requiring helium (which we are running out of), cheap and easy magnetic levitation (more available high-speed trains) permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] SkybreakerEngineer@lemmy.world 6 points 3 years ago (1 child) Last I checked, alcubierre drive still requires negative mass, which is not a thing. Time travel and artificial gravity are still theoretically impossible. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] aebrer@kbin.social 3 points 3 years ago Yeah artificial gravity I was thinking more along the lines of faking it via magnetism. Albecuire drive I was just wrong about, you're right it's not a maybe it's a nearly 100% no lol. Sorry just excited. permalink fedilink source parent [–] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 1 point 3 years ago Albecuire drive is basically science fiction. If it's actually possible we won't be seeing it any time soon unless we find a crashed ship on Mars or something. permalink fedilink source parent [+] skillissuer@lemmy.world 2 points 3 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent
