A spectacular suggestion by G.D. Nordley. Use of mass beams from numerous star systems to accelerate masses to 87%c or faster and implode asteroids to form miniature neutron stars or black holes. The impacts release vast energies, heat matter to a plasma or "zoo of particles." Some explodes outward but some inward, compress and collapse into super dense object. This could be used to make more mini-N stars or black holes. There are perhaps a trillion comet in Sol's 2ly radius Oort Cloud and vast numbers of icy planetoids. Certainly other stars have Oort Clouds, so there is no shortage of objects to implode. There could be many brown dwarfs out there, undetected red dwarfs and Jupiter sized extrasolar planets in the interstellar voids orbited by icy moons. These could be "seeded" with artificially created mini black holes to ignite them and create new star systems. Mini-N stars and black holes could be fed with cometary matter. About 6% to 40% will convert to energy; far more efficient than fusion, to light, heat and bring life to space colonies of the Oort Cloud made of ice shell radiation shields, metals and polymers. Comets are rich in organics for polymers and thus carbon for fullerenes. Beamrider stations energized by mini-black holes or ignited brown dwarf stars could propell ships across the voids of the Oort Clouds at high speeds. There is far more to outer space than the territory near stars.
Are there natural "wormholes" out there? Could we open wormholes somehow? Could we use mini-BH power to do so? What if we accelerate mini-BHs with mass beams that push against their electrostatic fields like mass beams on starship magnetic fields generated by mag-sails of huge solenoids to near light speed and fire them into natural black holes? Could this blast open a space time tunnel? Pure speculation on my part. No less. |
