Default Re: Newtonian ships or not?.

Well, like I've said before, just maybe not on here, people once thought 60 miles an hour would tear the skin off your face. They thought the speed of sound was unbreakable. Well, I don't know how many other things we've done have been labeled impossible, but probably a lot.

I don't truly beleive that impossible is the right word...I think 'non-existant action/direction' is better, that is, if you think of any action we take as an action/direction, there are places you can go and places you can't and if you can't, it's not because you're blocked, it's because that action/direction doesn't exist.

Also, the nature of light itself lends some credence to the theory of holes? in or around or something the speed of light barrier.
