Physics of Star Trek (Star Trek Series) (Taschenbuch) von Stephen Hawking Rezensionen: Sure, we all knowStar Trekis fiction, but warp drives and transporters and holodecks don't seem altogether implausible. Are any of these futuristic inventions fundamentally outlawed by physics as we understand it today?The Physics of Star Trektakes a lighthearted look at this subject, speculating on how the wonders ofStar Trektechnology might actually work--and, in some cases, revealing why the inventions are impossible or impractical even for an advanced civilization. (Example: "dematerializing" a person for transport would require about as much energy as is released by a 100-megaton hydrogen bomb).The Physics of Star Trekdeserves merit for providing a refresher course on topics such as relativity and antimatter, but let's face it: the reason most people will want to read this book is simply that it's fun to poke holes in the premises of their favorite science fiction shows! © 1998-2001 Amazon.com, Inc. und Tochtergesellschaften Alle Rezensionen ansehen...   Angebote zu  Physics ,  Star ,  Trek  ab 1 Euro!
