SUBJECT: Are Black Holes the way to do it? FILE: UFO2089

You cannot go faster than the speed of light - by any technology
|
|
known to mankind at the present time, but both space and time can
|
|
be distorted by gravity.
|
|
|
|
Carl Sagan says that a helpful way to understand black holes is
|
|
to think about the curvature of space. Consider a flat flexible lined
|
|
2 dimensional surface, like a piece of graph paper made of rubber.
|
|
If we drop a small mass the surface is deformed or puckered. A marble
|
|
rolls around the pucker like the earth orbiting the sun.
|
|
|
|
In this interpretation which we owe to EINSTEIN, gravity is a distortion
|
|
in the fabric of space. If you fall into a black hole (powerful gravity)
|
|
those watching you from the outside would see you take an infinite
|
|
amount of time to fall in - because all your clocks - mechanical and
|
|
physical would be perceived from the outside to have stopped.
|
|
|
|
From your point of view they would not have stopped.
|
|
|
|
Sagan then concludes that gravity tunnels may provide a type of
|
|
interstellar subway. So if you travelled by manipulating gravity you
|
|
could cheat space and not necessarily arrive back home in the future.
|
|
|
|
Travel to earth by aliens may not be as difficult as we think if
|
|
they can create gravity worm holes.
|
|
|
|
A supposed gravity propulsion system has been described by Robert
|
|
Lazaar in the United States in a UK book by Timothy Good called 'Alien
|
|
Liason'. This has some clues as to the fate of the crashed spacecraft
|
|
and their propulsion systems.
|
|
|
|
It's all heady stuff and I'm not a physics buff but I can see that at least
|
|
this UFO stuff is possible.
