belovelife Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 do you think it is possible to build a atmoshere living envyroment atmoshere held in place by a magnetic fieldso solar winds and such wouldn't blow them awaythen you wouldn't neccisarily need groundyou could floatand the pressure of the artificial atmoshere would be enoughto keep our delicate bodies intactit may also keep some bone density Quote

I think living inside a toroidal body, the inner surface, would be the most practical. spin the torus for artificial gravity, make a thick layer of soil in side the torus, fill it with air and light it and you have a artificial world. They could be quite large, possibly miles across and be made of materials obtained in space. Such colonies could be used as orbiting colonies and as slow ships to travel to the stars. Quote
belovelife Posted January 15, 2009 Author Report Posted January 15, 2009 the main issue with living in space is boiling righton earth you have the pressure of a vw beetle on every point on your bodygravity makes you body make your bones strongthats why in space you lose bone densityi also have a theory that accupressure could artificially induce bone growth now since we can move hydrogen with magnetic fieldswhy can't we use it as a force shield (in the future) have a membrane consisting of magnetic field inducerswhich constantly spin hydrogen (being the shell)then pressurize the "membrane"giving the "vw beetle" amount of pressure to the whole space envyroment Quote
Moontanman Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 the main issue with living in space is boiling right Ah no, I would think suffocation would come first. on earth you have the pressure of a vw beetle on every point on your body Ah no, we have 15lbs per square inch on our bodies, a VW beetle weighs in the neighborhood of 2000 lbs. gravity makes you body make your bones strongthats why in space you lose bone density Basically this is true i also have a theory that accupressure could artificially induce bone growth The mechanism of this would be? now since we can move hydrogen with magnetic fieldswhy can't we use it as a force shield No we can not move neutral hydrogen atoms with a magnetic Field. We can use it to repel charged particles. (in the future) have a membrane consisting of magnetic field inducerswhich constantly spin hydrogen (being the shell)then pressurize the "membrane"giving the "vw beetle" amount of pressure to the whole space envyroment I will give you points for excellent technobabble. Emphasis on the babble part. Quote
