Star Trek Physics: Whats cool, whats bull ?

ahh the physics are incorrect in your link. when you create a warp feild, the space is moving, so there wouldnt be any inertia at all in the ship.

like i said, if someone wants to talk about it, then let me know. typing sux.

 

hmm yes perhaps you clicked the link but failed to read all the pages and text thats relevent
yes... yes... I er.. I do believe they explain that

 

the photon torpedo quandry is easily explained...

your not shooting a lump of antimatter at a ship, the antimatter is contained inside a torpedo tube inside a magnetic field...when the tube hits, it breaks everything inside including electronic components...when that happens the magnetic sheilding keeping the antimatter from mingling with matter is nullified...its like filling a glass bottle with baking soda and vinegar...quickly closing it off and throwing it at the pavement...
