But it's like love or hate, now is that real or fake?
Cause it's a real thin line, but that's your choice to make.
The question at hand, help me understand, is this your plan?
I think I can, can I think, then I think I can.

No, that's not what i am trying to say, that's too much, people will get confused and therefore only people with the highest moter skills and hardcore trekkies would want to play it.

Yes, but thanks to how the world works that will never happen because of loss of money.

Yah, but if everything was free the economy would probably collapse for a while. Plus everyone would get rather angry when they werent getting paid. I dont know about some ppl, but most of the ppl i know wouldnt do a job simply for the betterment of mankind...

Why don't we think up a gravity generator? I mean if we think up a gravity generator then we will be able to build warp engines.

What about a completely new type of engine?

"Portal engines"


It would take alot of working out and stuff but...

Quantum entanglement particles are linked no matter how far away.

If what you did was isolate the thing behind Quantum entanglement you could obtain a teleportation system.

It would take alot of research but it is a start.

Um, no, not really.
Serway is talking about a teleportation system for ships, while warp drive is just a method of moving a ship quickly.

From what I know the pylons tilt to prevent damage to sub-space and was sort of a last minuite bodge to the intrepid design. They dont tilt on a Soverign class because the engines were designed from scratch after they knew about this sub-space damage malarkey. As for ship teleportation, read up on worm holes and super string theory. Best way I can think of doing it.
