Dude, it would be like bronze age steampunk.

Newtonian mechanics hold at every velocity relative to the someone on a spaceship, right? Time dilation "cancels out" the increasing mass of the spaceship (or in other words the increase in how much energy it takes to accelerate the spaceship further).

v * t = x

Define "right".

> a problem of Oneill cylinders would be people getting dizzy
Maybe with very small cylinders, but that shouldn't be a problem with every large cylinders. I believe NASA has done tests and has an estimate minimum size for a rotating space habitat. If my memory serves its slightly smaller than the one from 2001: A Space Odyssey.

I've got a Physics B.S.

All of my test questions were "infinite sheet sheet current... find E & B at point A" or "the cow people of planet Bovine built a rocket that blasts off at initial velocity V at angle... provide a time dependent general equation" and so on.

My department liked to integrate programming into every course, mostly Fortran and C. I took Nonlinear Dynamics and Plasma Physics my last two semesters. For Advanced Experimental Physics we created our own experiments, carried them out, and analyzed and presented the results.

There isn't much else to mention.

What is Engineering Physics like?

I don't seen any God in there, and I'm squinting REALLY hard right now.

I find Dyson spheres to be highly unlikely, but what do I know, a million years ago I thought the Moon was a disk and my greatest technological achievement was a stone wedged into a stick.

I view God the same way I view leprechauns or the Easter Bunny, that is to say I don't include God in my model of reality. If one showed me a mathematical proof that God cannot exist I wouldn't alter my model of reality in the slightest because there would be nothing to alter. I cannot believe in God any less and I cannot "not believe" in God any more.

What am I?

Can someone explain to me what a naked singularity is?

How can a object have mass, zero volume, and no event horizon?

I'd prefer a higher standing of living and not having to tear the meat off the bones of mother Earth.

I'n my ideal future Earth is no longer a population center but a natural reserve, preserving Earth's biological, geological, and anthropological history for the eons ahead. That means limiting humanity to just a few billion, concentrated in dense urban environments, and hundreds of billions of humans living in colonies across the solar system.
