kiwi535 538 Report post Posted August 29, 2015 Yeh...or inter-stellar travel. I have my own theories on alien propulsion systems. Since the big bang the universe is expanding so I reckon they are not coming to us, they are braking and witing for us to catch up to them. Far more efficient. braking and acceleration is the same thing in outer space,energy wise Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_ethrty-Andy_ 2122 Report post Posted August 29, 2015 isnt braking just acceleration in the other direction untill forces become equal (ie stationairy), just like accelerating forward until forces are equal Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoKer 58 Report post Posted August 29, 2015 dont cofuse velocity vs acceleration & who said time is metric? on what scale/ why is there 12 hours / 60 minutes 60 seconds in a minute then 1/10ths & hundredths 'ardly seem metric Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mynbmr 225 Report post Posted August 30, 2015 So now I don't have to stop for a stop sign any more, wile the car is moving forward all my 4 tyres, if it is only for an atomic second they stop, and reverse for a second before they move forward again . 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kiwi535 538 Report post Posted August 30, 2015 Depends on where you are in space. With no gravitational influence acceleration and braking are the same thing . However acceleration due to being sucked into a black hole and reverse thrust to escape it are different, one is gravitational the other is force. outer space,implies nothing nearby Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
