From: sungjunnoh0802@gmail.com The only problem with this is that the projectile is moving at nearly the speed of light, so when you see it, its already there, which means its going to take some handwavium to create an early-warning system, whcih would involve FTL communications. We would need to be careful to create an ftl device that doesn't defeat the purpose of the early-warning system. --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05 * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2) |
