just a PSA to everyone, if you reply to this thread you're on the blacklist
i'm already compromised so i'm just doing my duty.
save yourself and your family from hardship.

The Riemann hypothesis was just disproven. What the fuck. What does tihs mean?

GO!

RIP IN PEPPERONI MATHEMATICIANS

EARTH-LIKE PLANET DETECTED AROUND PROXIMA CENTAURI!!!!!!

McCulloch says there is observational evidence for this in the form of the famous fly by anomalies. These are the strange jumps in momentum observed in some spacecraft as they fly past Earth toward other planets. That’s exactly what his theory predicts.

The idea is that if photons have an inertial mass, they must experience inertia when they reflect. But the Unruh radiation in this case is tiny. So small in fact that it can interact with its immediate environment. In the case of the EmDrive, this is the truncated cone.

The cone allows Unruh radiation of a certain size at the large end but only a smaller wavelength at the other end. So the inertia of photons inside the cavity must change as they bounce back and forth. And to conserve momentum, this must generate a thrust.

Crucially, McCulloch’s theory makes two testable predictions. The first is that placing a dielectric inside the cavity should enhance the effectiveness of the thruster.

The second is that changing the dimensions of the cavity can reverse the direction of the thrust. That would happen when the Unruh radiation better matches the size of the narrow end than the large end. Changing the frequency of the photons inside the cavity could achieve a similar effect.

ITT let's design, build, and test a theoretically optimal EMdrive.

I'm an engineerfag, so I can do the hardware. Physicsfags get in here.

Well, not exactly. But the live reporting.

Now we are creating the technology again to go back to the moon with just .5% of the budget.

My sides

It's already happening


Google is pouring a lot of research in to it.
