Question About FTL Travel
Post Flair (click to view more posts with a particular flair)
Post Body
If a ship was using an FTL engine like Alcubierre warp drives or slipspace or hyperdrives, something like that, would it be possible to crash into an object like a planet or a star that is in its way? Would the ship's crew be able to detect the obstacle fast enough? Would an AI be fast enough to do that instead?
Comments
Possible but unspeakably unlikely. Space is incredibly big and stars follow extremely well understood patterns you could calculate on paper if need be.
