An alien civilization capable of constructing free-orbiting energy collectors but apparently incapable of doing it in more than one system. Perhaps the secret of traveling from one star to another is that it simply can't be done.

An alien civilization capable of constructing free-orbiting energy collectors but apparently incapable of doing it in more than one system. Or perhaps because they only need to do so on one star? Besides, there's a lot of things that "couldn't be done", proven wrong as time goes on. Yeah, some things are unrealistic, but it's relatively - depends on how long you're looking at in travel between the stars. Who knows, we'll have to see what that radio dish detects whenever they have it set up. RE: Avali Nexus Forum Thread 3: A crowd. - Surge - 10-15-2015 (10-15-2015, 05:01 PM)Reks Wrote:Again. When harnessing energy you want it to be a reasonable distance from whatever is using it. Several light years may be a bit excessive.(10-15-2015, 04:45 PM)Surge Wrote: That's such a depressing idea.

A more plausible spin on that is that they need all that energy for a research station. Their equivalent of the LHC, very large, ambitious, and more than a little bit dangerous. that's also possible and i mean we can technically beam power from one place to another (In fact, Tesla originally did something like that...then he died before he could reveal how he did it and let people have free power.) so it's not that unlikely but the research station thing is really possible.

The difference in distance is so great that it's difficult to say that any more than the core concepts of Tesla's work would even apply at that scale.(10-15-2015, 05:01 PM)Surge Wrote: Possible but unless they have some means of simply beaming energy from one star system to another it's not very likely.

I play a game until I get bored of it, shut it down, and then while I'm trying to figure out what to play next my brain just says "let's just sit here" and shuts down itself. MRW I can't find anything on Netlfix. RE: Avali Nexus Forum Thread 3: A crowd. - Surge - 10-15-2015 Fuck NVIDIA with a rake. I can't even play warframe because their shitty drivers can't handle it without crashing every mission and bringing the whole program with them. RE: Avali Nexus Forum Thread 3: A crowd. - SilverOtter - 10-15-2015 Progress in the Serious RP! A race get explained, everyone gets their own FTL, and the Knowledgebase system is introduced alongside a revised RTD system! RE: Avali Nexus Forum Thread 3: A crowd. - Surge - 10-15-2015 I wonder if I should try and find an RP or if I just shouldn't bother trying to commit to things right now.
