For last two years, I have been working on a theory for faster
than light travel, and I have hit a brick wall. The theory is stupidly
simple, so someone should have thought of it by now, but I can't find
it mentioned anywhere in the scientific litterateur. At this point,
the only way that this theory could be wrong is if Einstein was
mistaken. This I think is unlikely.
The theory is as follows;
As an object with mass is accelerated, it's mass increases. The
more an object is accelerated, the more mass it gains. This fact has
been proven in particle accelerator experiments. I would argue that
what is being seen is caused by another mechanism. An object is
accelerated though the exchange of force carrying partials, or
photons. As an object is accelerated, it begins to experience time
dilation. This slows an objects ability to exchange photons, which
become phase shifted from those from the accelerator
The faster the atom is traveling, the fewer photons are in phase to
accelerate it faster. This can be compensated for by generating more
photons, by increasing the amount of energy supplied to the
accelerator. The fact that increasing amounts energy was needed for
the same amount of acceleration, has been seen as evidence for the
atom's increase in mass.
In the above example, the atom is being accelerated by an external
force, the accelerator. If instead of an atom, the object was some
form of rocket, with it's own engines. Then the object would be acted
on by an internal force. There would be no phase shift as the object
is accelerated. If such a vehicle was capable of 1G of acceleration
at 0.01% the speed of light, then it would be capable of 1G of
acceleration at 99.99%. This acceleration would continue until the
vehicle reached the speed of light, where the time dilation would be
infinite, and time would stop.
According to Einstein's theory of relativity, a body traveling at
the speed of light would have infinite mass. Infinite mass in a
finite area is the definition of a singularity, the heart of a black
hole. According to my theory, once the body was at the speed of
light, no force in the universe could effect it. In either case, the
body would be incompatible with this universe. The body would form a
wormhole and drop out of the universe, reemerging in another part of
the universe.
At 1G of acceleration,(9.8 meters per second, per second,) it would
take a vehicle 354 days, 7 hours, 24 minutes, and 5 seconds to reach
the speed of light. It would seem much longer to an observer on
Earth. The direction of the wormhole would be the same as the
vehicle's momentum. The length of the wormhole would be based on the
vehicle's mass. Upon exiting the wormhole, the vehicles speed would
be absolute stop, even in relation to the expansion of the universe.
I have tried to contact everyone from N.A.S.A., to Coast to Coast,
A.M., but no one would give me any feed back. I'm blue collar, so no
one would publish any paper I could write. I would appreciate any
comments, pro, or con, that you could make.
