#571169 — Re: Stephen Hawking's Interstellar Spaceship Proposal (And More!)

I've been thinking of ways we can get such nanocraft to link up through 
self-assembly and form larger structures that can do more detailed 
observations and experiments. This could work even for visits to far off 
destinations still in the Solar System such as Kuiper belt objects like 
Pluto or the Oort cloud.

The main problem is getting the many objects flying independently and 
getting further apart the further out they go to gradually be drawn to each 
other and link up. Once they link up, I don't it would be to difficult to 
then get them to do self-assembly.

But it's that drawing together step that is the sticking point.

    Indeed, the hurdles range from how to create the laser array
    capable of accelerating a small payload off Earth to how to
    transmit data back to us over interstellar distances. These will
    be huge accomplishments, with reverberations throughout many
    fields of science and technology.

I was wondering how they were going to get comms back from such a
small package.  I guess the answer is they haven't exactly figured
that out yet.

Oddly it's his science that keeps him there!

If he didn't so desperately believe in the fundamental material 
assumptions of science (which are wrong) he'd have gone to India 
searching for his guru and be out of that chair by now using nothing 
more than his own thoughts. Maple Loops will explain in greater detail 
if you have any questions.

Come on Ben! That's a universal secret Hawking has not earned the
right to know about. Even if I could explain that it whatever, I'd be
writing the next series of the seven to ten, keep counting, books by
DeepShit Chopra's Laws for the Numerology Challenged. O shit, I guess
I'm not invited to Deepak's dinner parties anymore. I've heard he==DC
has access to really good Vodkas. Oye... life goes on and On and ON...

I do have a signed postcard from said one Hawking. Based on his
one-liner, and him judging my writing st(y)le, not knowing the origins
in Time of the name Guru Mahipal, Stephen thought/wrote/implied that I
was somekind of a horny teenaged girl, in Briefs. One of his main
central prime time fan base, I suspect. Back then, 1990s History,
horny teenaged girls, with or without their Timely Briefs, did not have 
their smartestphones to finger, so they fingered their ...youKnow. OMG!

You are too kind, I love that title Sir Sergio! "The Vodka Vedas"
brought to your door by Amazon Drones. Olives extra, more drones on
their way. One olive per one drone... be patient my pals...

Hey, that joke was more than 25 years of m(y) me life in the making, Sir
Sergio. Thongs/Thighs like that just don't fall out of the sky Sk(y) SKY...

Since you are already using Stargate technology, i.e. replicators, just
use some more, i.e. tractor beams.

Why not making super intelligent devices that feed on material/energy for fuel (food) that's available anywhere in space and can come to them to be grabbed and consumed. Devices that aren't in hurry, but wait till acquired energy reaches a level to run one of the commands planned and hard coded into them? Present human brain is not that heavy and large, and if that mass of haphazard mess can do it then why not a much smaller and lighter device that does it much better than the brain? A device that is made of better and much longer lasting materials. 

We can't get us elsewhere in the galaxy or beyond in this form, that's obvious. But we could build a super intelligent light-weight device that can build devices like itself when it decides to, and can survive and live the conditions of interstellar spaces. This device will be extremely faster than human to learn or get "educated". It will have none of the ridiculous vulnerabilities that human body has.
