hmm....Maybe the Gigantic ship I dreamt up for freelancer....Huge, purple, 145 Weapon hardpoints, 900m/s base speed....It was called "The Oraculer effect"....
never made it out of the design stage...maybe because it was incredibly overpowered...:D

Typhoon from the game Jumpgate.

Look at its mass and compare to frigates, so unfortunately it would be a fighter about the size of a drone. :)

My dream ship would be one of cargo ships from Elite 3 with a nice shield recharge bonus and a +1 drone level bonus with no or few weapon slots. Just drones and lots of cargo space and a jump drive. Perhaps a Imperial Explorer or a Imperial Trader.

Typhoon from the game Jumpgate.

Look at its mass and compare to frigates, so unfortunately it would be a fighter about the size of a drone. :)




Good luck training for Tech Level 26 Razz

A few ships I wouldn't mind having:

A retribution with some more CPU and a second mid Wink
The Prometheus from Star Trek
The Pathfinder Class from Star Trek
A Tactical Borg Cube
Hand of God 137 from Consider Phlebas
The upgraded Starship Streaker from the uplift series
Pillar of Autumn from Halo

Whitestar, vindicator or a nice ( starfleet command III style ) sphere prime ( god I raped so many red shirts in that thing )

A deimos style megathron would be awesome too. Or a tech3 deimos. ( you're getting the idea. ;) )

Talyn From Farscape, the ability to jump, has an Ascendancy Cannon (pretty nasty gun with a cool name), and is alive so it would have an auto regen to armor and hull in eve I Bet :)

Then again, it wouldn't be very module friendly, a living ship might not like it if you try shoving modules in it's orrifices to try to improve it...

Then again, a SDF 1 or 3 would be pretty nifty too...

The ability to mechamorphose into a giant robot.
Carrier like drone capacity (using veritechs of course).
A butt load of weapon hard points including poitn defense, missile batteries, and turrets.
And the grandady of all pop guns, the SDF 1-3 Main cannon, capable of pretty much WTFPWNING anything, or a group of anything in one shot.
The SDF 1 however lacked warp/jump ability after it jumped to pluto (they made an oopsie in jumping), but the SDF3 however had all that and a bag of chips, but lacked the Mechamorphising...

Dyson Sphere...

Titan? oh please, that's a rinky dink dinghy in comparison to a weaponised sphere that's multiple hundred thousand kilometers in diameter...

power??? only a star! no need for capacitor limitations here, the real thing would be how much juice could it pump into a laser beam to fry a target on the other side of the galaxy...

weapon fitting potential??? well... with the surface area of a sphere many hundreds of thousands of miles across, I'll let you all here conjure figures on just how many weapons you could fit...

weapon bonuses??? we don't need no stinking bonuses, it would have omni-directional fire with tens of thousands of mounts of every weapon imagineable... who needs to fire fast or even accurately when the entire firing horizon is literally set ablaze with hellfire from a single volley Very Happy

not to mention it would have a gravitational wake able to disrupt entire solarsystems with ease, so anything "smaller than it" which is pretty much EVERYTHING would be buffeted to oblivion should it have the desire to even shrug in its general direction.

Only one problem, dyson spheres arn't ships, they are more like stations. But if you COULD find a way to move one, I think this would pretty much be the I win button of doom ship.

Course, building one should take 1 year of game time, cost the combined resources of each alliance in the game over 300 members for 6 months.

But the stats would be worth it! :)

b. 6 detachable barges with cargo holds of about 1,000,000m3 that will fly back to the station you designate.
c. Able to carry 300 mining drones, too bad you can only use 15 at a time Sad.

Have to agree there looks like a brick hits like a brick turns like a Cow, defo caldariVery Happy

IF your going with Minbari it would be the shargothi class battlecruiser (aka the Blackstar)

Dyson Sphere...

Titan? oh please, that's a rinky dink dinghy in comparison to a weaponised sphere that's multiple hundred thousand kilometers in diameter...

power??? only a star! no need for capacitor limitations here, the real thing would be how much juice could it pump into a laser beam to fry a target on the other side of the galaxy...

weapon fitting potential??? well... with the surface area of a sphere many hundreds of thousands of miles across, I'll let you all here conjure figures on just how many weapons you could fit...

weapon bonuses??? we don't need no stinking bonuses, it would have omni-directional fire with tens of thousands of mounts of every weapon imagineable... who needs to fire fast or even accurately when the entire firing horizon is literally set ablaze with hellfire from a single volley Very Happy

not to mention it would have a gravitational wake able to disrupt entire solarsystems with ease, so anything "smaller than it" which is pretty much EVERYTHING would be buffeted to oblivion should it have the desire to even shrug in its general direction.



GEEK ALERT!!! nah just jk, tho i do love that episode of the next generation Very Happy the one where they find scotty in a transporter crashed on the sphere built around a star.

hmmmm my favourite ship would have to be the defiant from ds9.

or an computer game one would be The Colossus from freespace 2, i was sooooo gutted when that ship went down to the shivans

PS Please bring a FS3 out!!

Also the Hilgarian BattleCruiser from Homeworld 2 is purtty too. Vagr's BC too.

soo many ships i like ugh

Bah too many people seem to be going for ginormous sized ships. What about the Ebon Hawk? The millenium Falcon? The winnebego from spaceballs? Serenity? Ditch the allure of overwhelming firepower to trump all and go with style. At least all the affore mentioned ships have undeniable personaility garnered not just from the shows the herald from, but how they behaved.

Tempermental buckets of bolts that always managed to scrap by taking care of crew and cargo, only full falling apart when it was safe to do so. Then add some duct tape, paper clips, chewing gum and outright cheek and they'd be good as new and ready to carry on with thier crew regailing all about the dependability of these might ships. Gimme that, a ship with character and style.

Now on to topic: my dream ship. Hmmm... any the above are good but I would have to say my all time favorite ship is... well of the above I'd say Serenity because I just love the design. Big enigines, glowing butt, hmm... sounds feminine too. Annnnnnyyyyywwwwaaayyyyyy.

If I was to make one up though hmm.... for a base hull (since i can't really draw on on the boards) I'd chose the copperhead from FF: sprits within, which is the drop ship they used with the kind of spindly appearence.

Make it three times the size, capable of 7.0 au speeds and speeds of 400 m/s without help. Two turents mounted on each pod, and have them look like turrents, not guns on sticks, one below the Bridge (which I only say because the orther name for a pilots place in a ship/plane/whathave you gets censored? C'mon CCP we're adults and promise not to giggle when we read such common words, honest!), one on the ridge of the back and two side mounted on the tail for 4 hardpoints total.

Tack on 5 lows, 3 mids and make it an elite frig. Have the engine pods move as she turns, banks, etc.. to reflect them pushing her in the given direction. Get the turrents to eject shells and recoil when firing too.

Color it a Black trimmed in pale blue (like the color in the inards ofthe jupiter two from the lost in space movie which was a nice design as well) with a faint blue or perhaps orage light used to show the windows or marker lights. The exhaust should be a brilliant blue with no trails at all unless the AB or MWD is humming. Call her the Hades. yeah, that'd do.

Peacekeeper Command Carrier:
Who needs lots of guns when you have 2 flak cannons with about 100000mm caliber and 2 million people to man cepters, bombers and point def guns?
Empeorer Staliks imperial dreadnought:
Not only is it very cool but it has some very nice missiles that can destroy the better parts of plants?
Jothis stealth frig:
No 3km rule here. Just sit on top of them and if you get in trouble you can cripple a bs with a few shots.

Liberator for teh win.

Imperial traders from Elite II looked a bit like liberator.

Linkage

And, for the record, you COULD fit a new drive in an imp trader. you just had to crash it gently into a station until you managed to destroy the drive. Then you could fit a bigger one (but it couldnt carry enough fuel)

It'd also pwn long range snipers, just by looking at them.

Funny I preferred the carrier from hw2 to the battlecruiser. I was disappointed that they didn't put the assault frigate into hw2 Crying or Very sad I liked it much more than the 'torpedo' frigates which imo was balls.

Dyson Sphere...

Titan? oh please, that's a rinky dink dinghy in comparison to a weaponised sphere that's multiple hundred thousand kilometers in diameter...

power??? only a star! no need for capacitor limitations here, the real thing would be how much juice could it pump into a laser beam to fry a target on the other side of the galaxy...

weapon fitting potential??? well... with the surface area of a sphere many hundreds of thousands of miles across, I'll let you all here conjure figures on just how many weapons you could fit...

weapon bonuses??? we don't need no stinking bonuses, it would have omni-directional fire with tens of thousands of mounts of every weapon imagineable... who needs to fire fast or even accurately when the entire firing horizon is literally set ablaze with hellfire from a single volley Very Happy

not to mention it would have a gravitational wake able to disrupt entire solarsystems with ease, so anything "smaller than it" which is pretty much EVERYTHING would be buffeted to oblivion should it have the desire to even shrug in its general direction.


Only one problem, dyson spheres arn't ships, they are more like stations. But if you COULD find a way to move one, I think this would pretty much be the I win button of doom ship.

Course, building one should take 1 year of game time, cost the combined resources of each alliance in the game over 300 members for 6 months.

But the stats would be worth it! :)


There's always the Ringworld, it can move and would probably defeat every ship here on firepower (and that includes the Deathstar's pathetic weapon systems). Basically it turns the G2 star it revolves around into a massive focused plasma cannon.

Ok I would like to add to my last posts some more "Style" and "charm" oriented ships:

The Thunder Road from the movie Explorers (the armor and hull would be like 1 HP a piece as the ship is made out of a Tilt a whirl, a garbage can, some plywood and 2x4's, and a TV screen... but the shield would be 99999HP with a 99% rating Vs all, cept maybe lasers? LOL). As a side bonus it would have no inertia, and thus could have pretty much infinate agility ;) As a drawback it's powered by a 12V battery, and no capacitor, and has a tendancy to wisk you off/Jump to where imature alien children watch too much TV and speak mostly in lines from old movies. So in short, it means no real EVE quality weaponry, or even mining lasers, and occasionaly randomly warps you to some wierd place.

The Alien ship from "Flight of the Navigator" That would be a pretty ship too. Not very dangerous, but fast, sleek, and able to go back in time.

Spaceball 1 :-). Instead of siege mode it turns into a huge cleaning lady and sucks up anything smaller than a battleship.

Eh, giant intersteller warships are nice, especaily Dahak from "Emipre From the Ashes", which ship wise i would take, with its hyper beams, and hyper missles, 350 80k ton BS's a bridge thats 1km in diameter, and the captains quaters are a 30km in diameter park deck with a masion, a cool self aware AI, and 300k crew. Not to mention it would pwn/gank the Death Star since every one of its weapons is a technical doomsday device, and can move at a speed of 60% light speed with a reactionless gravitonic drive and turn on a dime. . . Other than that this isnt a ship, but i would kill for a Wing Zero Custom from Gundam Wing endless waltz, wtfpwned everything elseVery Happy

actually, the Excelsior "transwarp drive" never worked, and true transwarp according to canon from Voyager (shudders at how terrible that series was) shows that achieving transwarp isn't good for the genes Very Happy unless of course becoming a glorified salamander is your idea of fun Laughing

the fighter bruce willis uses to escape the yacht at the end of the fifth element. sexy ship with some nice firepower.

or

a jovian frig with 10km/s base speed, BS shields with frigate shield recharge, crazy resistances, able to fit and use cov ops cloak (or advanced jovian design oneWink), 7 hi slots - 6 missile hardpoints with the ability to fit 6 cruise missile launchers(sieges arn't very classy even for a super frig), 8 mediums, 4 lows

bonus's: 10% missile launcher rof and 20% velocity bonus per level

special ability: 200% bonus to scan resolution and targeting range

would be the single greatest ship in eve and i would have to be the only one to have one of course




does anybody think there might be a secret gate to polaris up north on the map?!?

ZEMBLA YES!

Nastalgia for Infinity. has the ability to repair and change its entire shape to make it more spacially dynamic at near light speeds and to make armor/replace it where its needed.now that was a good book.

Other than that, i always thought the Hygarran Dreanoughts from Homeworld: Cataclysm (horrible game) looked really awesome. complete with 32 missile bays, its own repair drones, and a repulsor wave to blow nearby ships up out of ur "personal bubble"

not to mention 4 turret mounted ion cannons.

the hygarran Battlecruiser from Homeworld2 also looked really cool.

nerds,

For scary ass intimidation
For me it would be the Ur-Quan Kzer-za Dreadnaught. Complete with "Launch Fighters" and Planetary siege plasma bolts.

Or

The Ur-Quan Kohr-ah Marauder, complete with homing kinetic kill blades and FRIED (Fiery Ring of Inceniary Enternal Destruction).

While we are talking about the Ur-Quan, the minmatar should take some notes from them.

For super sexyness

The one, the only "Heart of Gold"

For ridculously stupid amount of fire power

The Decepticon assault cruiser NEMESIS

Since many of you havent heard of this piece of military hardware...here is her loadout.

18 Turbolaser Cannons (2 Turrets of 2 Each), 4 Plasma Cannons (2 turrets of 2 each), 1 Hyper-Fusion Cannon (turret), 42 Heavy Guided Space Bomb Launchers (1 warhead each) 70 Mag Pulse Torpedo Tubes (1 warhead each), 252 Proton Torpedo Tubes (1 warhead each), 1120 Concussion Missile Tubes (1 warhead each), 8 Tractor Beam Projectors (4 banks of 2 each), 1 High Power Tractor Beam

best spunky ship

Alas, i hate to dive into the trekkieness but the Defient thing on Deep Space Nine I feel was pretty spunky

actually, the Excelsior "transwarp drive" never worked, and true transwarp according to canon from Voyager (shudders at how terrible that series was) shows that achieving transwarp isn't good for the genes Very Happy unless of course becoming a glorified salamander is your idea of fun Laughing


No. The whole salamander thing came about when they sucessfully broke warp 10, and subsequently began evolving at an accelerated rate. Transwarp is a completely different means of achieving ftl, and the Borg use it all the time. Transwarp requires either a special transwarp conduit stabalization module, or a transwarp hub that utilizes gates to stabalize conduits.

probably the modern battlestar from deleted scenes on the New BSG pilots.

Or the Akira class from ST:firstcontact and several DS9 episodes would be on my list to.

Transwarp is a completely different means of achieving ftl, and the Borg use it all the time. Transwarp requires either a special transwarp conduit stabalization module, or a transwarp hub that utilizes gates to stabalize conduits.


Transwarp

trans-warp is defined as surpassing warp 9-range and achieving "warp 10" is beyond warp 9-range so indeed it too is what transwarp would be. All "trans warp" means is quite literaly "beyond warp", as "trans" means across or past, and warp means warp.

The reason that ôwarp 10ö fried the genes of VoyagersÆ personnel is that it was of course poorly controlled (read as: basically uncontrolled) and the side effects resulted from it. The Borg have their technology behind the transwarp already figured out for them, all they had to do was assimilate it, so their ôsafety precautionsö came pre-developed.

now even if Excelsior had worked, it wouldn't have even come close to Warp 10/Transwarp, and the speed capabilities of the entire Excelsior class are quite unimpressive as the Galaxy class easily outpaced them in every respect, and the movie's description (Start Trek 3) of it as "transwarp" is erroneous since it wasn't a determination of its speed capability and rather a keen way for the engine in the Excelsior to be described as a "next generation" warp engine superior to that of the Constitution class (i.e. the Enterprise).

now the canon also goes on to show that the Enterprise-D with the help of "the traveler" was the first federation ship to achieve true transwarp, surpassing the Warp 10 barrier and scorching across space at an unheard of speed.

Later, when "Reginald Barkley" was "gifted" with the immense knowledge of an alien civilization, he created a "trans warp" gate to which the Enterprise-D was nearly pulled through to some unknown location. That transwarp gate is quite akin to what the Borg use.

so "technically" the first two "true" transwarp events for the Federation were linked to the Enterprise-D, Voyager's claim to fame is that it is the mothership to the "Cochrane" which was able to achieve warp-10+, and the speed apparently microwaved the genes of Captain Janeway and Ensign Paris. That speed is still defined as being a ôtrans warpö speed, and due to it obviously being unsafe without proper precautions taken, my original statement was correct.

Since the Federation is still ironing out the kinks in Transwarp technology, indeed going at transwarp speeds is currently ôbad for the genesö Very Happy

The USS Excelsior Heavy Cruiser, one of my favourite vesselsVery Happy

..And with an operating Transwarp DriveTwisted Evil

Oh... the stars shine bright, lovely me, where am I now? Rolling Eyes


actually, the Excelsior "transwarp drive" never worked, and true transwarp according to canon from Voyager (shudders at how terrible that series was) shows that achieving transwarp isn't good for the genes Very Happy unless of course becoming a glorified salamander is your idea of fun Laughing


No. The whole salamander thing came about when they sucessfully broke warp 10, and subsequently began evolving at an accelerated rate. Transwarp is a completely different means of achieving ftl, and the Borg use it all the time. Transwarp requires either a special transwarp conduit stabalization module, or a transwarp hub that utilizes gates to stabalize conduits.


Transwarp

Then there's always Quantum Slipstream.

I would like to see the Deadalus from Stargate... Thing is awesome. Plus it uses rail guns and stuff... which is sorta realistic.


of course a Star Destroyer, or a Mon-Calmarian Cruiser would be nice too...

Best bet, is the Death-Star tho.. 1 Shot to blow up any ship ;)

Transwarp prior to ST:TNG is unscaleable as in ST:3 they used a warp scale that went upto 12.
And all sucsesfull transwarp's have been on the later TNG scale that goes to 10.

Warp 10 is the point where the reach the destination anywhere in the galaxy almost the moment they leave and sofar only entitys like Q have demonstrated this.

this is more like a long range transporter than warpdrive and as such the first atempt at it was infact in a recent ST:Enterprise episode.

Transwarp however is the point of warp between 9.99 to warp 9.99.99.
Borg use a coil to acheive the lower ends of this.
but as seen in VOY: endgame use a transwarphub to reach the higher ends.

well, Quantum Slipstream is another area where things become sticky, as itÆs merely a means of ôpressingö a slipstream around the ship thatÆs more effective than the alternative multiple layers of ôwarp fieldö around the ship, 1 layer for each factor of warp speed.

Trek Tech

a means of Quantum Slipstream is ôbetterö than the current methods of pushing the warp factors harder (which according to the story were eventually limited except for emergencies to prevent subspace damage to the space being traveled through) and reaching into the sub-factors of warp 9à such as 9.975 being ôwide openö top speed for most of the fastest Federation shipsÆ capabilities. Quantum Slipstream provides a much more efficient subspace barrier between the ship and the space it is flying through at ludicrous speed.

However the BorgÆs example of a transwarp answer as mentioned before was to effectively ôgateö their way across space.

ItÆs sort of the idea of, going faster will take you less time to arrive, or if you simply make the destination effectively ôcloserö then the trip distance isnÆt as profound so effectively you get there faster. ItÆs sort of ôtrans warpö in multiple different flavors with different methods to get the same result.

At the end of the day, Quantum Slipstream is actually only an extension of conventional warp drive speeds, itÆs questionable to how the chart should then look factoring in a more efficient and thus faster speed of warping when there is also an alternative means of effectively equal speed that circumvents ôdistance over timeö by making the distance effectively less so the time needed to cross it is thus less resulting in a ôdistance traveled in an amount of timeö result comparable to a speed, even if little if any speed was involvedà

Once it gets to 8 and 9, the ôentryö afterward is debatable then as to whether to call it ôtranswarp Iö or ôwarp 10ö, and beyond that, further factors are again questionable as either ôtranswarp IIö or ôwarp 11ö.

Since quantum slipstream is not conventional warp speed, and it is beyond the warp 9 to warp 10 barrier, itÆs technically correct to call it ôtranswarpö, but since it uses basically conventional warp with very un-conventional ôwarp fieldö technology, the hair may need to be split and possibly a separate chart for ôgenuineö transwarp that uses a non-slipstream methodology, and a second chart for ôslipstreamö factors of warp.

Perhaps the slipstream warp factor chart would read, ôwarp 9, 10, 11, etcö, and the transwarp propulsion chart would read ôwarp 8, 9 : Transwarp I, Transwarp IIö

I'm sorry, but retcons for the worst voyager episode are simply not acceptable. Its far better to say that that episode doesn't exist and just go on your merry way with your "warp 13" speeds in "All good things..." and your transwarp tunnels of the last episode of Voyager.

Oh, and I stick by my prior "Hydrans ftw" statement.

Martok's Negh' Var- 50% more fire then a Sovreign,Cloaking capability,tho significantly slower (only warp 8.5),Ion pulse cannon (drops sheilds to 50% in one shot due to it being a spin off of Been technology)

Osiris- From Freelancer,Rheinland damage mixed with the speed and tech systems of Liberty and it can cloak!!!

A Thrasher or Munin that can fit a full rack of T2 720MM Artys. and still be able to fit a good set up.

lol well, I didn't say I liked Voyager (to say I only despised it is far too weak a term to describe it properly) but sadly, it's canon. Just as much as many people would like to have had "Star Wars - George Lucas = Happy Fans" for Episode 1 and 2, sadly, it's not the case, and now we all have to live with the consequencesà

If there is one thing we can count on though is inconsistency in Sci-Fi, so as long as Paramount is in it for the money (i.e. until space stops being dark) they will happily grind Star Trek into the ground one TV series at a time and with as many movies as there is celluloid to print them on. ItÆs only a matter of time till they step back and re-work their canon again to fit into a new set of rules they are writing as they go.

I would want my dream ship to be able to use all of the slots in the fittings display.

Hi:8 (8 Turret / 8 Missle slots)
Med:8
Low:8

With enough powergrid and cpu to fit 8 guns or missles of my choice.

And a capacitor that would support a shield and armor tank indefinitely. And a good tank at that, with resistances sitting at around 80% or above.

That would be great Very Happy
Can it be done by next Tuesday?

Well if you follow the 1-10 warp drive warp scale where warp 10 is infinity, a number impossible to go higher than, you realize that every time someone in star trek went past warp 10, it was a lousy writer trying to impress us with bigger numbers, as they were too lazy to follow their own mythos strictly.

Unfortunatly this is true.
i blame Rick Berman for most of these plot clashes with most Startech.

Warp 10 is instant arival anywhere as soon as you leave.
no matter the distance between point a and b.
Now this is as far as i know never been said in a episode but on that theory warp10+ would infact be time travel.
As it would require you to arive before you leave.

for a fast ship the Tie-Interceptor would be nice

for more firepower id go for a Imperial stardestoryer or a interdictor if i dont want my target to go anywhere

for even more firepower id like a a imperial super star destroyer like the Executorugh

but really i think the amarrian frieghter model are a waste would have looked so awesome with a large commandturret in the back and weapon mounts along the sides... have to watch this beautyfull ship and think its just a frikking oversized hauler is a goddamn shame ugh



Edit: i almost forgot General Grievous¦s commandship in Revenge of the sith wich also looks pretty nice YARRRR!!

I would like to have my Terran Enforcer ship I had in EnB in this game with the same hp, 175K shields, 72k hull and the same offensive capabilities (40-45k damage every 7 seconds average). Now that would rock!

I think that says enough. I cried when I watched the TNG episode with Scotty in it last night. Thankfully in DS9 they made Obrien a Cheif Engineer. continuing Scotty's legacy of fine Celtic engineers.

BAH!

All of the above would be little more than an effort in ôfiringö for the Dyson Sphere to obliterateà

Many hundreds of thousands of kilometers in diameter and powered by its own self contained star.

While the logistics of one would be completely unfathomable, we are talking ôdream shipsö.

As for locomotion? Well, being big isnÆt necessarily a detriment since it could have something akin to a jump drive to get about all it likes.

The armament would easily be in the many orders of magnitude over any ship or its weapon systemsà

The death star may be able to destroy a planet with its power, the Dyson Sphere could obliterate entire solar systems merely by passing too closely to them! lol

As for how many weapons it could mount, well, if the Sphere is 300,000 Kilometers in diameter (150,000 km radius) it would have a surface area of 282,743,338,833 square-kilometersà in comparison, the Earth has a surface area round about 509,295,817 square-kilometersà so even a ôsmallö Dyson sphere of 300,000 km in diameter would have in the area of 550 TIMES as much area to place goodies of mass destruction upon as even the entirety of Earthà

Rather than being limited like a death star with one super laserà why not have HUNDREDS lol

More over, why waste time with such a PITTIFUL weapon when a Dyson sphere could easily support dozens or more weapons even far superior to the ôgalaxy gunö

Galaxy Gun

bigger IS better you see! :D lol

All other craft would either be too small to do any significant damage so such an enormous structure, but even opponents like a Death Star wouldnÆt even be able to get within their own targeting radius without their own Roche limit being far surpassed possibly annihilating things like a death star by merely being near it, or the force of gravity wake would be such to either brush any foe aside like a toy.

Said force of gravity would be my best friend here, as the sheer size of any structure that could completely encompass a star would most assurdly collapse in on itself almost immediatly.

ummm, no... you see gravity doesn't work that way...

your own gravity doesn't work that way, Relativity specifically eliminates that possibility, it is RELATIVE gravity and the wake there of that would obliterate any rinky dink ships or brush them aside like so much litter. The ultra-massive sphere being as big as some entire solar systems unto itself, versus a vessel even such as a death star is hardly the size of a small moonà well, IÆll let you figure on which one would be producing more gravity simply by virtue of being millions upon millions of times more massive.

the sphere most certainly wouldn't collapse in on itself as there is nowhere near enough external force to over come such a massive structureÆs natural tensile strength, and itÆs own gravity would only lend strength to it keeping it together...

the gravitational force of the star inside would be insignificant compared to the greater field of the sphere itself. the sphere (i.e. one of the strongest shapes known to exist) would perform better with force of constriction, and any impact from the outside would be dissipated across the shape of the sphere.

as for the sphere's effect of gravity upon itself, it would be negligible as again the surface of the sphere would again divide any force among the greater whole, and to say that it would collapse in on itself is incorrect, as the same could be said for any super massive structure or planetoid, and they donÆt collapse in upon themselves.

In fact, it is their own gravity that gives them the ability to stay in one piece, and gives them cohesive strength, not a weakness.

Well argued, though I still doubt the claim that any mineral in the plethera of human knowledge can possibly be as large as that and not snap under its own weight. This is a structure large enough to completely encompass a star. Stars, which are hundreds of times larger than anything else. Assuming every bit of mass from every solid planet in the solar system was used in an atempt to create a sphere around our sun, would all those minerals even begin to encompass the star? How many planets to a sphere like that? Hell, the last time all the matter that formed earth was close to each other like that, it compressed itself into earth. But you're telling me a structure large enough to encompass a FULL STAR, some of the hugest stellar bodies in exsistance, would act completely normal, just sitting there in the shape we wrought it in. Is there something about steel that makes it act diffrently than all the rest of the matter in the universe?

In conclusion, there simply isn't a material in exsistance that could hold a mass as large as a solar system and not collapse in on itself in a hundred diffrent ways. "Snapping under its own weight" comes to mind, as well as "that much steel put together reaches critical mass and becomes a star itself". Has there ever been a solid planet in the history of time that has been as large as a normal star, much less large enough to encompass one? No, never, not once.

But as you said way back in your first post, logistics are aside, and thus, I give you your super sun sphere of death.

"Armed with the Sun Crusher, Kyp soared to Carida, the heart of the Imperial Academy. Kyp launched the Sun Crusher's resonance torpedoes into Carida's sun, triggering a chain reaction that would destroy the system."

a Dyson Sphere would get wtfpwnd by the sun crusher it would fly though whatever armour it had like a hot knife to butter and then oh i dont know crush the sun like the name implys

from starwars.com
"Armed with the Sun Crusher, Kyp soared to Carida, the heart of the Imperial Academy. Kyp launched the Sun Crusher's resonance torpedoes into Carida's sun, triggering a chain reaction that would destroy the system."

this xwing sized sun pwnzor could paste a ssd simply by flying in one side and out the other

lol well I make no claims as to the practicality of a Dyson Sphere, this entire discussion is about ôdream shipsö and in a dream, suspension of practicality is of course a must otherwise it wouldnÆt be a dream but rather a reality now wouldnÆt it?

I do however insist that as Einstein very clearly proven, the Dyson SphereÆs own gravitation wouldnÆt make it collapse in upon itself. Relativity holds up VERY well under scrutiny I assure you.

Also, saying "Snapping under its own weight" doesnÆt work out as such a thing in space is impossible, as there is no weight in space. Mass is still measurable and important, but even mass can only exert but ôso muchö force at a long distance, and when the already puny force of gravity (among the weakest forces in the universe mind you) has great difficulty exerting great force at great distance, and only at close distances can large bodies actually do great damage with gravity.

More importantly, this is important to note, you say the last time that much matter was gathered it compressed into the earth itself?

I donÆt know how to break this to you, but the Earth is little more than the garbage the Sun spewed out in its proto-star phases, and as the general mess that was earth circled for millions of years it somewhat scooped up the remaining matter around its orbit path and cohered into one spherical planet. It wasnÆt ôa timeö or even a result of the matter being ôso gravity intensiveö as itÆs relative gravity is microscopic, itÆs merely a side effect of a star vomiting excess material and it coming together slowly over time.

Gravity is a VERY weak force and is only significant with colossal masses at close distances. Think about it, even the smallest child can quite easily over come gravity without even really exerting himself by merely standing up.

ôThe strong force attracting two protons together is 10^40 (that means a 1 followed by 40 zeroes) times stronger than the force of gravity between themö

Gravity

you see, relativity is quite powerful but gravity is not, this also exposes just how miniscule the force of gravity is compared to even things like magnetism, and even someone blowing the wrapper off of a soda-straw is MANY TIMES more powerful than gravity if only for a short time.

Now as for a ôcritical massö, you also completely ignore the physics behind such a thing, for a critical mass to be attained, it has to be in a central point, but there is no central point for the sphere, as it encompasses the central point which is the star that powers it.

Also, per chance do you even know what the gravity effect of a SOLID sphere even 13,000 kilometers in diameter is??? About 1gà i.e. the same gravitational effect as earth since it is approximately that 13,000 kilometers in diameterà also do note, itÆs gravitational effect is diminished to nearly nothing out at the orbit of the moon, approximately 382,000 kilometers away. Only another body like the moon pulling back can even keep itself in orbit by pulling back on the earth itself so the two share their gravitation to hold each other, and the moonÆs shared-pull with Earth causes our tides among many other things.

Now, on the moon, the gravity effect of earth is so insignificant that itÆs for all intents and purposes non-existent which is part of why the moonÆs own gravity posed on the astronauts who landed there being about 1/6th of that on earth.

So seeing as the walls of the Dyson Sphere would be about this far apart (and that's for a small sphere), the gravitational effect of walls nowhere near 13,000km thick like the earth is would generate hardly a tiniest of fractions of even one earth G force, so cumulatively the gravity effect upon itself from the sphere wouldnÆt even be able to effect the other side of the sphere, thus it couldnÆt crush itself in because it couldnÆt effect the opposing sides enough to do anything to them.

as for the sun crushr "going through" the dyson sphere's armor?

I think not...

Sun Crusher

it's a tiny ship, and the Dyson Sphere's walls could EASILY be multiple miles thick...

this isn't like flying into a gas giant here, this is a thick wall of solid and practically impenetrable hull.

More over, just because the folks in the Starwars universe were incapable of blowing the rinky dink dinghy to bits doesnÆt mean the Dyson Sphere couldnÆt either crush it or simply capture ità

Why bother trying to stop it when they could lock a tractor beam on it likely from across the solar system with how much power the dyson sphere has at its immediate disposal, and just forcibly tow the sun crusher in and force it into submission.

There's no weight in space? What kind of school taught you things like that? Weight - albeit often misused - still exists, the gravitational pull experienced in space is what defines the weight of an object. In space in fact many forces are toned down, but gravity isn't. Gravity is one of the larger (if not the largest) force to take into accountance when flying through space.

Gravity isn't among the weakest forces of the universe either it's got the same inverse-square dependance on range as the magnetical force you claim is much stronger.

True, but there are other forces interacting on the kid as well. And as you say, gravity is the bigger one of these forces. Also, it is very important to make a distinction between contact forces and distant forces.

I doubt that protons will attract each other :) This seriously depends on the distance as well. The Coulomb force is practically the exact same as the Gravitational force only with a different coefficient and with charge instead of matter making up the key values. At the atomic level magnetism outclasses gravity because of the minuscule weight of electrons, yet they have a huge charge (in comparisson). This electrical force is the thing that keeps atoms neutral in charge, ions have magnetical interactions, but two atoms do not have magnetical intereactions on the same basis. So as soon as you're outside of the atomic level you'll find most (if not all) objects to be charge neutral, yet they can contain much mass, so outside of the atomic level you'll notice that gravity is the limiting force, the binding force.

If the Dyson Sphere (first time I hear of this), was indeed really a star it could be torn apart if coming too close to another star (that other star would be torn apart too). It's impractical for large heavy objects to traverse space because of the tidal forces.

Gravity (Fg = (G * m1 * m2)/(r^2)) on large objects causes tidal forces. Because gravity is very dependant on the range to the other mass the gravitational forces experienced by a point on one side (closer to the other mass) are much bigger than the forces on the other side. This difference in pull can tear spaceships (and probably even planets apart). In macroscopic physics it is common to describe objects by their mass-centre, but when a large object comes to close to another mass density, volume and other potential irregularities come into play.

Gravity doesn't distinguish between star, ship or whatever. It's all mass...

As for stars collapsing on itself... aaactually... if a star gets old enough, and the fusion elements become heavy enough it can explode (supernova) which would leave behind a neutron star (goes around it's axis about once every second). A pinhead of matter from a neutron star is alleged to "weigh" thousands of even millions of metric tonnes. A neutron star can arguable be called a collapsed star...

Umm Zembla, I am sorry to tell you this, but Gravity is indeed an incredibly weak force. Indeed gravity is in the order of less than one 10^36th to even one 10^40th as strong as the electro-magnetic forces.

To get into the finest details why, I would have to go on a spiel about string theory and how ôbranesö are the in-vogue theory to explain just why gravity is so incredibly weak compared to practically any other force in quantum mechanics and even relativity.

General Relativity
Gravitation

If and when the unifying theory between General Relativity and itÆs associated Universal Law of Gravitation are then properly analogized with Quantum Mechanics, then all the loose ends of the universe may well start to weave together for our physicists and thus explaining some of the things that currently donÆt seem to make sense but according to every measure we know of, the mathematics checks out. But given that Einstein went to his grave without ever coming near that goal, it may be yet on the horizon.

there is indeed no ôweightö in space, as weight is a relative measure, which is precisely why ôweightö isnÆt used. Mass is a constant, weight is not. In fact, your weight can vary significantly merely by your location on earth, much less in space. Between standing on the peak of Everest or on the shores of the Dead Sea your weight can vary by quite a significant margin.

ôI doubt that protons will attract each other :) This seriously depends on the distance as well. The Coulomb force is practically the exact same as the Gravitational force only with a different coefficient and with charge instead of matter making up the key values. At the atomic level magnetism outclasses gravity because of the minuscule weight of electrons, yet they have a huge charge (in comparisson).ö

But you have to compare gravity at the atomic level to the most basic elements of electro-magnetism, and do pre-tell what is the most basic component of ôelectro-anythingö???

An Electron.

Also, would you like to know what the ultimate example how just how superior even sub-atomic forces are to gravity???

On the morning of August 6th, 1945à the unquestionable measure of how VASTLY superior even a matter of 60kg of Uranium 235 of which only 0.7kg actually fissioned could unleash more than 13,000 kilotons of explosive force (55 Tera-Joules).

Einstein himself actually hit the nail on the head, the amount of energy potential to yield from an atom was equal to its mass times the speed of light squaredà more commonly known as:

E=mc^2

Also I believe you misread the passage about the protons, ôThe strong force attracting two protons together is 10^40 (that means a 1 followed by 40 zeroes) times stronger than the force of gravity between themö

ôThe gravitational interaction of protons is approximately a factor 1036 weaker than the electromagnetic repulsionö Perhaps that passage from above site on gravitation would be more suitable. ôattractingö in physics doesnÆt necessarily mean they are coming closer together, ôattracting togetherö in this case simply means their strong forces exerting outward that would effect other subatomic particles are effecting upon one another, if one were an electron it would bring it closer, and another proton it would repulse, but both are actually referred to as ôattractionö in physics, and particularly quantum physics as it is the interaction of forces it is describing, not the resulting directional movement toward or away from eachother.

I encourage you to look into the physics of this, consider the electro magnet used in a scrap yard to pick up cars/trucks and suchà now that magnet has the capacity to support not only its own weight should be become ôstuckö to a ferrous metal structure or what have you, but it can also lift metal objects of tremendous weight and over come all of the earths exerted gravitation with considerable ease compared to the mechanical arm that has to support the weight behind the magnet.

I assure you, the more you look into it the more you will find that gravity is an astoundingly weak force in comparison to other physical forces, and ESPECIALLY forces like electro-magnetism.

Think about it like this, for all of the earthÆs strength of gravity, the chair you are sitting in, and the ground you walk on not only over come gravity with tremendous ease, but everything from the tiniest of bugs and even microbes to the largest of creatures can surpass the miniscule force of gravity exerted on them without significant effort at all.

Larger bodies have slightly more trouble as they exert their own forces, but when two forces of tremendous difference in force exert upon each other, one is quite easily overshadowed and practically irrelevant in favor of the superior force.

ôIt's the sun's pull that keeps us in orbit, not the reactonary force between the masses of the moon and the earth.ö

Ok??? And where did I say otherwise??? I was talking about the forces between the earth and moon causing tides, which is a proven fact, I in no way suggested that causes our orbit of the sun.

And again, toward the end of your post, you go into the practicalities of the Dyson Sphere, which is not in debate, weÆre not asking if this thing is ôeconomicalö or even ôlogicalö to use as a combat weapon, we are discussing ôdream shipsö, and as such, itÆs no-holds-barred and as such, the practicalities of any of these ships goes right out the window because itÆs a DREAM lol

ôGravity doesn't distinguish between star, ship or whatever. It's all mass...ö

well that is of course correct, but HOW the gravity is being exerted can indeed vary based on the mass in question and most especially, over distance the force exerted from gravity diminishes at a tremendous weight as itÆs force is divided by the total surface area of an ever increasing radius to for every single unit of ôstandard measureö you extend the radius that the gravity travels, you literally divide the strength of that gravity by 12.56 times. (Surface Area of a Sphere)

so basically, the strength of the gravity at 2 kilometers is not even 1/12th that of the gravity at 1 kilometerà now, imagine the force reduction at 150,000 km??? (one 282,600,000,000th of what it would be at 1km)

The physics behind the sphere is quite sound really as itÆs built well beyond the Roche limit of the star and the structure, so its destruction from its own mass and gravity or that of the star is simply not going to happen because itÆs simply not in a position where it would destroy itself. If it was built around a larger star perhaps, or if it was build much much smaller and thus closer to the star, then potentially it could but the star it surrounds and the structure itself are picked/designed with one another in mind.

there is indeed no ôweightö in space, as weight is a relative measure, which is precisely why ôweightö isnÆt used. Mass is a constant, weight is not. In fact, your weight can vary significantly merely by your location on earth, much less in space. Between standing on the peak of Everest or on the shores of the Dead Sea your weight can vary by quite a significant margin.

ôI doubt that protons will attract each other :) This seriously depends on the distance as well. The Coulomb force is practically the exact same as the Gravitational force only with a different coefficient and with charge instead of matter making up the key values. At the atomic level magnetism outclasses gravity because of the minuscule weight of electrons, yet they have a huge charge (in comparisson).ö

But you have to compare gravity at the atomic level to the most basic elements of electro-magnetism, and do pre-tell what is the most basic component of ôelectro-anythingö???

An Electron.

Also, would you like to know what the ultimate example how just how superior even sub-atomic forces are to gravity???

On the morning of August 6th, 1945à the unquestionable measure of how VASTLY superior even a matter of 60kg of Uranium 235 of which only 0.7kg actually fissioned could unleash more than 13,000 kilotons of explosive force (55 Tera-Joules).

Einstein himself actually hit the nail on the head, the amount of energy potential to yield from an atom was equal to its mass times the speed of light squaredà more commonly known as:

E=mc^2

Also I believe you misread the passage about the protons, ôThe strong force attracting two protons together is 10^40 (that means a 1 followed by 40 zeroes) times stronger than the force of gravity between themö

ôThe gravitational interaction of protons is approximately a factor 1036 weaker than the electromagnetic repulsionö Perhaps that passage from above site on gravitation would be more suitable. ôattractingö in physics doesnÆt necessarily mean they are coming closer together, ôattracting togetherö in this case simply means their strong forces exerting outward that would effect other subatomic particles are effecting upon one another, if one were an electron it would bring it closer, and another proton it would repulse, but both are actually referred to as ôattractionö in physics, and particularly quantum physics as it is the interaction of forces it is describing, not the resulting directional movement toward or away from eachother.

I encourage you to look into the physics of this, and I assure you, the more you look into it the more you will find that gravity is an astoundingly weak force in comparison to other physical forces, and ESPECIALLY forces like electro-magnetism.

Think about it like this, for all of the earthÆs strength of gravity, the chair you are sitting in, and the ground you walk on not only over come gravity with tremendous ease, but everything from the tiniest of bugs and even microbes to the largest of creatures can surpass the miniscule force of gravity exerted on them without significant effort at all.

Larger bodies have slightly more trouble as they exert their own forces, but when two forces of tremendous difference in force exert upon each other, one is quite easily overshadowed and practically irrelevant in favor of the superior force.

ôIt's the sun's pull that keeps us in orbit, not the reactonary force between the masses of the moon and the earth.ö

Ok??? And where did I say otherwise??? I was talking about the forces between the earth and moon causing tides, which is a proven fact, I in no way suggested that causes our orbit of the sun.

And again, toward the end of your post, you go into the practicalities of the Dyson Sphere, which is not in debate, weÆre not asking if this thing is ôeconomicalö or even ôlogicalö to use as a combat weapon, we are discussing ôdream shipsö, and as such, itÆs no-holds-barred and as such, the practicalities of any of these ships goes right out the window because itÆs a DREAM lol

ôGravity doesn't distinguish between star, ship or whatever. It's all mass...ö

well that is of course correct, but HOW the gravity is being exerted can indeed vary based on the mass in question and most especially, over distance the force exerted from gravity diminishes at a tremendous weight as itÆs force is divided by the total surface area of an ever increasing radius to for every single unit of ôstandard measureö you extend the radius that the gravity travels, you literally divide the strength of that gravity by 12.56 times. (Surface Area of a Sphere)

so basically, the strength of the gravity at 2 kilometers is not even 1/12th that of the gravity at 1 kilometerà now, imagine the force reduction at 150,000 km??? (one 282,600,000,000th of what it would be at 1km)

The physics behind the sphere is quite sound really as itÆs built well beyond the Roche limit of the star and the structure, so its destruction from its own mass and gravity or that of the star is simply not going to happen because itÆs simply not in a position where it would destroy itself. If it was built around a larger star perhaps, or if it was build much much smaller and thus closer to the star, then potentially it could but the star it surrounds and the structure itself are picked/designed with one another in mind.

Gravity has a lower magnitude, but because of its omnipresence it's one of the stronger binding forces.

No, no, no. That's not what I meant. I meant that weight is an attrictive force experienced by you because of a force of a heavier mass near you. Weight is omnipresent, or rather, gravity is. Your weight won't vary significantly enough, believe me. Also, the easy with which gravity is overcome is the result of a species adapting to it's habitat.

You're comparing chemistry with physics here. I don't really see the relation between a bomb and gravity. I'm not talking about sub-atomic forces, or anything other. I'm talking about the forces we can experience in every day's life, and the forces that are the main obstacles for space-faring. Among those forces gravity is the one you need to take into accountance the most.

I'm an engineer and have studied these things in the past. It's not because I don't mention certain common knowledge that I'm not aware of it. No need to point out to me that the basic electro-magnetic element is an electron... which in fact isn't even 100% correct.

Chemical reactions and most subatomic reactions can result in enormous ammounts of energy being released from a relatively small mass-interaction. On the other hand, gravity's influence can release enormous ammounts of energy as well.

But, I understand where you're coming from, I guess I was just nitpicking (another result of having to study those things in school, makes you picky :))

The curious thing about all of this is that the case has already been proven with mathematics and word straight from Einstein himself, to which even modern physicists like Steven Hawking have not only proven, but put into application.

Even the most simple of experiments can be performed to show how feeble the force of gravity isà

STAND UPà there you go, earth for all of its majesty, for all of its mass, canÆt even exert enough force to keep you from having a few muscles flex and create MANY TIMES the force of gravity and simply stand you up. More still though is that on earth, the force of gravity is many times as strong as its exertion in space which is of course further and further away so the force of gravity gets weaker at a rate of 12.56 TIMES weaker for every one unit of standard measure further away you get from the earth.

Where does space begin?

By the time you even reach what is considered ôspaceö (between 50 and 75 miles above earth) and enter orbit, the force of gravity on earthÆs surface (1g) is chopped down to approximately between 1.12336E-55th to even as little as 3.7651E-83th of its force on earth.

THIS is why people float even in orbit, because even 50 miles up gravity isnÆt even 1/1.12336E-55th of what it is here on earthà can you imagine 150,000 kilometers away? 300,000 kilometers away??? The force becomes so insignificant as to have effectively NO influence on people in orbit, which is why they float. Unless of course you want to suggest that NASA has had it wrong all the timeà

Maybe being the one and only agency to land a man on another celestial body isnÆt quite enough credibility??? lol

ôso, would you like to know what the ultimate example how just how superior even sub-atomic forces are to gravity???

Among those forces gravity is the one you need to take into accountance the most.ö

Ehhh???

Ummm, no, I am not comparing chemistry to physics here, I am comparing the strong force of an atom bomb being fissioned (a property of physics) and unleashing more power in one detonation than 13,000 kilotons of TNT explosive(s). This is a physics here in all of its glory, in one instant 0.7kg of fissioned Uranium 235 unleashed so many times more force than gravity that to actually compare numbers would likely take up an entire post of zeroes to show just how much more powerful a MACRO SCALE atomic exertion of force can clearly be demonstrated as the VASTLY superior force to gravity.

ôI'm an engineer and have studied these things in the past. It's not because I don't mention certain common knowledge that I'm not aware of it.ö

??? then why do you insist that weight is an attractive force, when it is nothing of the sort, it is a measure of a force (gravity) being exerted on something, but it has absolutely no ôattractive forceö value what so ever. Also, as gravityÆs value changes (more or less) the weight then changes as well, because ôweightö is relative to gravity.

ôGravity has a lower magnitude, but because of its omnipresence it's one of the stronger binding forces.ö

ôomnipresensceö ?!?!? LOL

weÆre not talking about the almighty here, Gravity exerts in all directions, which could be called ôomni-directionalö, but it is not ôomnipresentö, and again, IÆll remind you that gravity is less than:

1 / 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000th as strong as even the electromagnetic forces. ThatÆs one UNDECILLIONTH as strongà or, less than 1 trillionth of a trillionth of a trillionth as strong!!! (and thatÆs only at 10^36th measurement, itÆs often accepted as being less than 10^40th as strong)

Physicists have LONG since established how pitifully weak gravity is in comparison to other forces, and I assure you gravity VERY quickly takes a back seat to nearly any force, even the strength of a newborn baby is many times the strength of gravity, as the baby can extremely easily reach up its arms and kick against the pull of gravity with only the limitation of the childÆs weak muscles being a limiting factor rather than the miniscule exertion of gravity.

ôNo, no, no. That's not what I meant. I meant that weight is an attrictive force experienced by you because of a force of a heavier mass near you. Weight is omnipresent, or rather, gravity is. Your weight won't vary significantly enough, believe me. Also, the easy with which gravity is overcome is the result of a species adapting to it's habitat. I mean, when we jump, it's not as if we can go ballistic or anything.ö

I am very sorry, but weight is not ôomnipresentö otherwise Neil Armstrong wouldnÆt have been recorded very clearly as approximately 1/6th of his earth weight on the Moon. Weight it indeed relative (unless of course actually performing the test and Einstein got it all wrong even though they have been proven correct).

Also, if weight is ôomnipresentö then perhaps you can explain how in space between the earth and the moon for instance (or even in orbit around the earth) the astronauts and cosmonauts float and have no measurable weightà this is because their weight is only relative to another ôbodyö exerting force on them (gravity) and that relative force of gravity on them can be perceived as ôweightö but weight is NOT an attractive force in any way, it is a measure of the amount of force gravity is exerting on your total mass.

What is Mass?

as you can see, as clearly documented there MASS is a constant, but mass is NOT weight and weight is NOT mass, mass is a measure of how much ôstuffö is inside the object, and more mass typically translates into more weight, BUT as the description clearly shows, weight is relative to location, so weight is again the effect of gravityÆs exertion on a mass, it is NOT however a mass measure unto itself, and itÆs a measure of the REACTION to an attractive force (gravity) and it is NOT an attractive force unto itself.

ôBut you have to compare gravity at the atomic level to the most basic elements of electro-magnetism, and do pre-tell what is the most basic component of ôelectro-anythingö???

No, you don't. Gravity at the atomic level indeed has little influence, same as gravity won't really influence the path of light. However, at the macroscopic scale (where gravity has free play) electro-magnetic forces have no effect/influence.ö

Actually, Yes, you doà Gravity even on the macro-scale is tremendously weak compared to even a refrigerator magnet! Think about it, the magnet can hold its own weight with ease against gravity, and support much more weight than its own before gravity can begin to parallel the forces, and thatÆs with a weakly charged magnet

??? then why do you insist that weight is an attractive force, when it is nothing of the sort, it is a measure of a force (gravity) being exerted on something, but it has absolutely no ôattractive forceö value what so ever. Also, as gravityÆs value changes (more or less) the weight then changes as well, because ôweightö is relative to gravity.

A discussion on force types in the middle of a dream ship thread, nice derailing there Laughing

BTW, it is important to not that the only non-graitational force observed on a planar scale is gravity, well except for the magnetic belt that surrounds our planet...

Please do not try and compare the strong force and gravity at the distance of an AU or more, considering the only instance of the strong forced observed is within the nucleaus of a single atom, comparing that distance to an AU would require a few more than 40 0's worth of magnitude

The problem with electromagnetics on that scale is that matter on a planetary scale is general electrostatically neurtal (Not postive or negative) so electromagnetic forces do not play a part

So your arguments on how "punny" gravity is are blatently futile, so give it up Wink

I do wonder how a sphere could be made to encompass a star though, as the amount of energy that a star puts out would be enough to melt any material I have ever heard of

Back on topic, I think that the Detalius (sp) from Stargate Atlantis is pretty cool, what with teleporting several megaton nuclear devices into the center of its oppisition Twisted Evil
While in eve I think I would go for the Moros looks pretty cool from my n00b eyes, I like the idea of 3 XL guns and 35 assorted drones as my fire power (Or 35 Harvesting drones to put even a Large Barge to shame in mining potential Razz

LOL!!!

Well you may think what you will, but Einstein, Steven Hawking, and physics in general doesnÆt agree with youà Now, given that the mathematics and even what has been actually observed in action says exactly contrary to your statement, you wish to suggest that all of the above are incorrect???

You say magnetism (electro or otherwise) isnÆt effective on the planetary scale???

Have you ever used a compass???

Did you know that the Aurora Borealis is specifically cause by the magnetic field of planets???

Oh, and would you mind telling me which of these forces exerts itself to greater effect from earth further out in space and even out to/past the moonÆs orbit, is it earthÆs gravity or its magnetic field???

The magnetic field of earth is still easily observed out past even the moon and even well past 300,000km away from earth, as was observed by the Apollo space program and recorded as such, where as the gravity effect of earth out at the distance of the moonÆs orbit is infinitesimal. By the time gravity gets out that far, the already feeble power of it is reduced by a factor of 0.000000265392781316348 (i.e. the power of gravity is about 2 TEN-MILLIONTHS that of the 1g experienced on earth at such a distance).

So your arguments on how gravity supposedly isnÆt "puny" are blatantly futile, so give it up. lol

Not only does Physics say very clearly how weak gravity is, but even the mathematics and the physicists themselves universally agree that gravity is a weak force in the universe compared to practically any other significant force.

By merely typing this post, I have surpassed all the gravity the earth has to offer hundreds of times with every single key press even my weakest finger exerts many times what earthÆs gravity could ever hope to unleash. The button pressing alone is FAR FAR beyond what gravity can exert on them, otherwise the buttons would always be in the down position now wouldnÆt they??? But it takes the ôcolossalö strength of a PINKY to tap down the shift key???

I am HIGHLY unimpressed with how supposedly powerful gravity is, yet when I put a piece of ferrous metal on an electro-magnet I can EASILY make it hold so forcefully that no man on the planet could possibly pull it free, and it could exert many hundreds if not thousands of times the force that earthÆs puny gravity ever could.

weapon bonuses??? we don't need no stinking bonuses, it would have omni-directional fire with tens of thousands of mounts of every weapon imagineable... who needs to fire fast or even accurately when the entire firing horizon is literally set ablaze with hellfire from a single volley Very Happy

not to mention it would have a gravitational wake able to disrupt entire solarsystems with ease, so anything "smaller than it" which is pretty much EVERYTHING would be buffeted to oblivion should it have the desire to even shrug in its general direction.


Only one problem, dyson spheres arn't ships, they are more like stations. But if you COULD find a way to move one, I think this would pretty much be the I win button of doom ship.

Course, building one should take 1 year of game time, cost the combined resources of each alliance in the game over 300 members for 6 months.

But the stats would be worth it! :)

Guvante is right. What I'm trying to say is that on earth, in computers etc, other forces may have a bigger influence. But, because of the same inverse square range dependance and because celestial bodies are charge neutral electromagnetism plays no role when look at the macroscopic scale. Have you ever heard of space billiard? Then tell me again how unimportant gravity is.

I've heard arguments like yours 1000 times before, and they're correct as long as they've been placed in the right context, which you don't. If your arguments would apply regardless of context I'm sure my professors wouldn't have taught me things differently.

Gravity is an attractive force. Gravity has never been known to repell... or do you sometimes float upwards in the morning?

Do not be fooled, it's not because at speeds close the escape velocity astronauts experience little or no gravity, or because the pull of gravity decreases that it's such a weak force. In fact, there still has to be proven (mathematically) that there are forces you need to look at closer when travelling through space. And I'm talking about natural forces.

BTW, it's a chemical property that Uranium or Plutonium bombarded with neutrons will split. Physics deals with matter in an abstract manner, never says which substance exactly flies through space, leaves the chemical properties of the mass/charge to the imagination as they are irrelevant to most physical issues (apart from batteries etc etc).

ôGuvante is rightö

actually, Einstein and Steven Hawking take top honors here, and they disagree with you and Guvante quite clearly. If you and Guvante would like to propose your own theories of universal gravitation and general relativity however, IÆm sure weÆd all be more than happy to consider your counter to the established position on the matter. (which by the way has been proven already)

ôGravity is an attractive force. Gravity has never been known to repell... or do you sometimes float upwards in the morning?ö

I never said otherwise, however what is in question is that you said:

ôI meant that weight is an attrictive force experienced by you because of a force of a heavier mass near you.ö

Weight, and how ôheavyö you happen to be somewhere has absolutely NO attractive force of any kind. ôweightö is not a attracting force, end of story.

GRAVITY as I have said and the physics clearly defines is an attractive force, but gravity is NOT weight, weight is a RELATIVE measure of the effect of gravity on your MASS.

But apparently ôGravity has never been known to repellö you also donÆt understand that massive objects moving through space exert force on the objects around them. Gravity has a side effect of while smaller objects may be drawn toward the larger, it also has to contend with the angle of movement in relation to each other, and if the angle of approach between the two objects is too oblique, the gravity pulling it in ends up pulling it toward the object, and as the larger object continues to move and the angle is too oblique, the smaller object can literally be pulled across the orbit arc and then hurled to the side by the inertia the object builds from the exertion of force the gravity causes.

This is how every single one of the Apollo space craft reached the moon, it was impractical to load enough fuel to ôpowerö their way the whole trip, so the orbiter simply circled the earth several times building up speed and then sharpened the angle so much as to use gravity itself as a slingshot to hurl themselves toward the moon with nothing by the power GRAVITY could exert to THROW them away. Indeed gravity is an ôattractiveö force, but it doesnÆt always mean itÆs going to draw you in, professing your profound knowledge of physics, it would seem you would already know thatà

ôBTW, it's a chemical property that Uranium or Plutonium bombarded with neutrons will split. Physics deals with matter in an abstract manner, never says which substance exactly flies through space, leaves the chemical properties of the mass/charge to the imagination as they are irrelevant to most physical issues (apart from batteries etc etc).ö

WHAT?!?!?

LOL I donÆt know who told you that, but they need to take another look into what fission is.

Would you mind telling the class what field of science Niels Bohr was in? (early creator of Quantum Physics) Perhaps James Chadwick? (discovered the neutron)

Or perhaps the creator of the theory that led directly to the theory and eventual creation of an atomic bomb, E=mc^2, without which the atomic bomb and even ôhisö letter to FDR may not have allowed the American development of the Manhattan Project??? ôHeö was Albert Einestein

Albert Einestein, and he was known for:
(a) Chemistry
(b) Physics
(c) Crazy hair
(d) Answers B & C

First off, physics is intimately linked to matter and deals with it VERY literally. Otherwise physics would only ever deal with ôforcesö which have no physical essence which is why they are a force and not matter. Physics indeed approaches matter VERY literally, and has to take into account the properties of matter to properly take into account how a force may interact with it.

Also, ôchemicalö properties are a direct result of physical interactions, and the resulting effects are physics. So by extension, chemistry is merely a branch of physics and the quantum components of it.

For instance, Uranium 235 fissioning is VERY MUCH a matter for physics to measure and determine the amount of energy it can unleash (E=mc^2).

Quantum Physics revolves entirely around MATTER and how it performs at the sub atomic level. The PHYSICAL property of super-heavy atoms to crumble or fission when bombarded with neutrons releases tremendous amounts of energy as well as unleashing more neutrons from the split atoms (3 neutrons per every atom of Uranium 235 fissioned) and the more neutrons released the more additional atoms of U235 are hit by those additional neutrons and themselves split. This is PHYSICS, and the energy they release is PHYSICS, and the resulting force of that energy being released and its colossal potential for devastating power.

You may ôbelieveö that gravity is a comparably strong force, but compared to even weak magnetism, gravity is less than 1 trillionth of a trillionth of a trillionth as strong.

The mathematics shows it.
Einstein proved it with his universally accepted formula of Universal Gravitation.
The entire physics community accepts and can separately prove it in their own way.

I would really love to drive a Nupetiet Vergnitzs(Those 4km long Zentraedi Flagships) and fire its main guns just like the one the SDF-1 has. And those small cannons that pops out of its hull. Also launching a ton of missiles all at once. That new gallente battleship has some similarities in its bow.

Would like to use the Pillar of Autumn from Halo myself...

3 Shiva Tactical nukes of which one is mounted on a remote controlled fighter

Over 300 missile pods each holding dozens of missiles

MAC cannon which can fire 3 consecutive shots....

4 autocannons on the underside with overlapping fields of fire

A hangar with room for several pelican dropships and longsword fighter squadrons....

And an incredibly strong structure (probably stronger than the armour and shields put together Shocked)

Add to that a shield generator and it's good to go, what's not to like?

Xeelee Nightfighter from Stephen Baxter's future history - shields that divert incoming fire into hyperspace, beam weapons (starbreaker beams) that can tear apart planets with focused gravity, and a speed of about 100 million lightyears per second at full power.

As for cool ships that would never get put into EVE.

I would love a Culture GSV:

Quote:
General Systems Vehicles (GSVs) range between 25km and 200km in each dimension (including its 'fields') - the GSVs are the Culture's largest type of ship, and can be considered worlds of their own. GSVs which provide accommodation for biological members of the culture generally have populations in the millions or even billions. However, they are also, with some lead time, able to transform into massive factories. In one of the Culture novels a GSV unloads its organic population and transforms itself into a fast-moving shipyard / mothership.

Classes of GSV are usually named after the largest planetary geological/geographical features. Some of the known classes of GSV are (in decreasing order of size/capability):

* System Class
* Equator Class
* Ocean Class
* Plate Class
* Continent Class

For me it would have to be a borg tactical cube, adaptability ina fight as well as sheer fire power and to boot it is able to run when 78% of it is destroyed due to there being no centralization in ship systems.

or we could go one better and have that ship from star trek armada 2 where 9 tactical cubes would join together and form a massive one

I'd want one of my modified (read that as cheat) ships from Stars!

15 hardpoints capable of mounting 100 items per hardpoint. I'd want it without rollover on shield and armor HP as well.

It'd have roughly 180k armor and 50k shield, possibly 330k armor and 100k shields with another hardpoint dedicated to 100 alien miners so that I could strip mine whole planets in short order and get 98% cloaking, 95% torpedo jamming, and maximum movement rate. That leaves 1 hardpoint for battle nexi for maximum initiative and accuracy on torpedos and 9 for lasers and torpedos, enough to wipe out 20-30 battleships per salvo.

In EVE terms it would probably be a T2 or T3 titan, or perhaps a T2 faction titan.

Now that is ship to ship fighting with style and looks so cool transforming. Wonder what ice would be used to fuel the jump drives? Why have walk in stations when your ship can walk...

Somebody here's gotta know what I'm talking about? :P

The Shivans also > any race from the *cough* space operas that you'll find on TV. They actually look alien and are obviously more than just actors with fancy makeup or pointy elf ears, *cough*...

The Protoss Mothership from Starcraft 2.

Why use a DDD when you can open a black hole and swallow anything no matter their size and hp?

The DeLorean!

Alternatively, the Calnus (and the ships of similar model) from the Star Ocean series.

I love the leviathan

Leviathan Heavy Battleship (Battletech)

When it was a transport it could carry 250k people, as a battleship it will vape anything with a single broadside ^^.

for those who dont know anything about battletech, anything with an "N" in front of it is a naval (BS-Capital) sized weapon at the bottom of the page.


Oh, and it carriers 300 fighters... :D

I agree. A research ship would be an AWESOME addition to eve. Get the scientists out of the stations and out doing field trips. Laughing

Personally I'd like to fly the Battlecruiser from Star Craft, My Space Whaler, the Pillar Of Autumn, freelancer coalition warship.

Mmm...

Tec2 Hurricane

7 Turret Slots
4 Mids (no change)
6 Lows (no change)

Better resists and a bigger drone bay and increase cpu/cap for better fitting options with the 7th turret. Would be a nice ship. Smile

a Plate Class GSV from Iain M. Banks' Culture novels.

A ship that can create matter out of nothing (well the hyperspace grid, but we arent talking details here ^^ ), can manufacture a fleet of thousands of ships within weeks using that energy and any avaliable mass, has a AI brain smart enogh to run simulations of the whole universe, has planet destroying weaponry that is accurate to the atomic level and enogh living space that I wouldnt see the same bit of it twice in my lifetime ^^

How strange, a 10-page long thread about everyone's dream ship and only one person has mentioned the Millenium Falcon? For shame.

I mean, it's an YT-1300 freighter that's been pimped out so much that it has the combat capabilities of an Assault Frigate and can still carry a load of spice.

Now, Star Destroyers and Cruisers are nice, but I think being in command of such a big ship would be stressful. I would rather own a freighter or maybe a frigate. Maybe a frigate that could hold one squadron of X-Wings or some such plus some decent armaments. Oh and definitely a tractor beam. <3 Star Wars tractor beams. Much better than the can-draggers in EVE.

Dude but then you would come back from the edge of the universe all jacked up. Remember the visions man.

I would have to say that Klingon bird of prey that could fire while cloaked and bring that into Eve. Can we say indestructible.

Star Destroyer. When I first saw the small picture of the Scorpion, I thought it looked like a SD but then it turned out the perspective fooled me.
