How will anti-gravity contribute to the world if it is realized?In this section, we will speculate on possible products and technologies based on the properties of anti-gravity.
First of all, it is possible to create a zero-gravity environment in the vicinity of 0G.The first thing that immediately comes to mind is probably a tireless car, or a flying car.In order to propel it in anti-gravity, 0G is used.
For example, think of a vibrating motor. A weight is attached to the motor at an eccentric position.
If you rotate the motor as it is, it will only vibrate in place because of the centrifugal force in all directions. This is because the mass exists, but in a 0G environment, the weight is zero.Thus, centrifugal force acts only on the side that is not set to 0G, and the proton moves selectively in that direction.
If the protons are accelerated to sub-light speed in a circular cyclotron, and then set to zero G on the semicircular side, as in the vibration motor, the acceleration will not work on that side.
Next is a tabletop zero-gravity environment experiment system. If zero-gravity experiments, which can only be conducted on the International Space Station, can be easily conducted on a tabletop, it will probably lead to the discovery and development of new materials one after another.
The zero-gravity environment production equipment is a large-scale version of this experimental equipment. If we can mass-produce new materials, the world will become a more convenient place.
The next step is to create a weak anti-gravity environment of a few Gs to several tens of Gs. In anti-gravity, there is a force that causes atoms and molecules to separate from each other.
In a normal solid, the atoms and molecules are so tightly packed that light from the other side cannot pass through, but in a solid placed under anti-gravity, gaps are created between the atoms and molecules.
When light from the other side passes through these gaps, the object becomes transparent. Even if transparent glass is not inserted, if a specific area is placed under anti-gravity, it would be possible to see the outside scenery through it like a window pane.
Also, if it could be applied to the human body, it would be possible to see inside the body through the skin and muscles without having to make an incision in the skin.
Since the human body is composed of a complex variety of materials, it would be necessary to devise a way to stop the anti-gravity before the tissues are destroyed by the modulated anti-gravity.
The more powerful the anti-gravity, the weaker the inter-atomic and intermolecular forces become. It is just like heating. In general, heating causes phase transformation from solid to liquid to gas, and antigravity does the same.
What is different from heating is that it can be applied to things that would burn when heated, such as wood. By liquefying wood, we may one day be able to form wood products as if they were plastic.
If the drill part of the shield machine used for digging tunnels were made anti-gravity, it would be possible to liquefy bedrock, resulting in less vibration and more efficient removal of rubble.
After thinking this far, I came up with an amazing idea!It is everyone's favorite "defensive shield".
For example, we could deploy a powerful anti-gravity shield a few dozen centimeters outside the tank's armor. Any shells that enter this anti-gravity area, for example, will become brittle and shatter due to the decomposition effect of the anti-gravity.
The surface of the armor is then left in a 0G state; any material impacting the armor in a 0G environment will be reflected back without consuming any kinetic energy as destructive energy due to the perfect elastic collision.
In this way, the two-stage anti-gravity is deployed around the spacecraft as a protective measure against kinetic energy.
This would be an essential technology for spacecraft. Protecting a spacecraft from space debris is very important, especially as the speed of the spacecraft increases, the relative kinetic energy also increases, so it is very difficult to enter space without a means of protection.
In addition, the compartment where the crew is located will be made a 0G area when accelerating the spacecraft, so that the crew will not feel any acceleration, so they will not have to undergo hypergravity training as astronauts do now.
Furthermore, if the spacecraft can be made 0G except for its engine, the spacecraft will be lighter, and thus it will be possible to accelerate with a large initial speed even with a small hydraulic force.
Once the spacecraft has reached its cruising speed, it can continue to fly even after the 0G is released.
What happens if we make antigravity even more powerful?
So far, it has only loosened the atomic and intermolecular forces, but if it were stronger, it could affect the atomic nucleus. This means that if we apply super-strong anti-gravity to radioactive materials, the atomic nucleus will be shaken and the radiation will be released faster.
In other words, we could make everyone's favorite "Cosmo Cleaner D!" ... from Uchu-Senkan YAMATO (STAR BLAZERS,Space Battleship Yamato)
If we can create a radiation removal device (half-life accelerator), it would be a fundamental solution to any nuclear accident, so I really want to make one.When powerful anti-gravity is instantaneously deployed... We can make an anti-gravity bomb.
I wonder if the explosion of the anti-gravity bomb would gouge the area into a spherical shape because it would atomize the area of effect. When Schwarzenegger appeared from the future in Terminator, it was just like that.
For example, if there is an asteroid that is about to fall to the earth, if we hit it with this anti-gravity bomb, it will lose mass and become lighter, which will shift its orbit to the outside, and thus miss its collision course with the earth.
Also, if the bomb is detonated under the ground on the moon, it would create a spherical space under the ground, which would make it easier to build an underground city.On the other side of creating a strong anti-gravity, a strong gravity will be generated.Then, depending on the situation, a micro black hole might be created.
According to Hawking radiation, positive subatomic particles (protons and positrons) should be ejected from a positive micro black hole, and negative subatomic particles (electrons and antiprotons) should be ejected from a negative black hole.
The Hawking radiation will gradually neutralize the charge, so when the charge decreases to a certain extent, it will be necessary to recharge it by shooting a strong charged beam from the outside.
In this sense, it is not possible to create antimatter from nothing at all, so I think it would be more appropriate to call it a matter-antimatter conversion reactor.
