Title: In space, would a superconductive grid be repelled from light's magnetic field?
Post by: ron123456 on 21/02/2020 14:10:36
In Outerspace, would light's magnetic field repel a superconductive grid not weighing very much? Can a mounted laser repelling a mounted superconductive grid introduce propulsion at the speed of light?

Matter cannot move at the speed of light, so no.

O.K...... How about slightly less than the speed of light due to the effect(weight) due to dark matter/matter upon the mass of the (let's call it a ship)?...

Given enough time and energy transfer, you can propel anything close to the speed of light. That is the basis of the theoretical laser-powered solar sail.

I was just  trying to eliminate elastic collisions with 'pass through the grid' field interaction to increase efficiency and directional capability.....

Why?
In terms of accelerating something, those are the best sort.
They push twice as hard and they don't cook your "sail"

Yes, but they push your sail in one direction and it's so"oooo old with momentum transfer......Let's start to think FIELD......Consider that it will take over two million years to get to the closest galaxy AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT!!.....Speed of light is constant in all inertial frames(?) and is all that that has been stated. Nothing has really been stated about going beyond that speed even if that requires inertial mass to be transferred to energy initially.

One thing has been said about it; it is impossible.

Could this concept of the magnetic field of light repelling a superconductive grid, not at least be an implication to a 3D interface as opposed to a 2D solar sail? Could the light not pass through a 3D superconductive crystal lattice with elastic collisions along the way through the lattice?
