Sorry for misleading title a little, I`ve been thinking about people not finding aliens.
I`m thinking about the limiting, speed of light. At first I speculated a bit, that maybe there is something around light in space, that slows down the speed, but dark matter or dark energy has not been proven to exist yet. So can you really travel fast enough, to have a chance to explore anything? They say the universe, is expanding also.
All mass is energy, if you break it down. You can even set fire to rocks, because everything consists of the same thing anyway, namely energy, like in the sun. I’m talking about energy as a physical thing then, not just kinetic energy, for example. That’s what mass consists of too, the same as in suns, just in a colder form.
I now think it’s the acceleration, that’s the problem, with traveling faster than the speed of light. You get to a point, let`s say 99 % of the speed of light, where you try to accelerate further, but the weight of the energy becomes too heavy. So there’s nothing around energy that slows it down, but it’s the acceleration that becomes too much.
Back to mass then, all mass is the same as suns consist of, energy, but in a colder form. As long as you add some energy, from suns to mass, it stays in a kind of middle ground, between cold and dead and hard, and a little bit alive. When the first sun expanded into empty space, there were different energy paths just before the expansion, a little bit about electrons around a nucleus, which determined the type of mass it became. There never been a theory on how mass forms, really, so I came up with this.
The problem, is a little bit like, even a spaceship, is only energy if you break it down. So it can’t travel faster than light otherwise, anyway. Otherwise it would be something separate from the universe. Like fantasy. The acceleration itself, makes it too heavy when you approach the speed of light. You get to 99 %, and then there’s nothing more. So, the hope of seeing aliens one day, may not be possible. If there was dark matter in space, you could perhaps bend it, to travel faster, but it has not been proven to exist.
What do you personally, think? Will people just drift, endlessy in space? Without ever seeing aliens? Does that make it even more important to workout, and make people feel good? Make the planet better?
