Theory of Relativity: The speed at which you have to travel...to escape your relatives.

well if E stands before = so you are calculating energy. if you have energy and speed (speed of light "c" is constant and it's something about 300000 km/s) you can calculate mass -> m=E/c[squared.

For an example.
My ship weight is 200 tons. Let's calculate amount of energy needed to accelerate it to the speed of light. E= 200000 x 90000000000 -> E=18000000000000000 J -> E= 18000 TJ . massive...

(...) what? worlds are dissapearing? ummm... yes, it could be my fault (...)

What?! LMAO

No... the amount of energy needed to accelerate to lightspeed is infinite for any object that has mass. E=Mc^2 only tells you how much E would be generated if you were to completely annihilate an object of mass M.

well... everything depends on your point of view. i reccomend "Brief history of time" by Stephen Hawking and "Black Holes and the universe" by Igor Novikow.

Lol, what does any of this have to do with finding an example of the black hole mentioned in the resource files?

i found one in the background of omicron alpha. the big thing in the background of omega 41 are 3 galaxies i think...
oops... there are these 3 galaxies and a black hole
si is it in omicron alpha a black whole or another galaxy?

reading these posts made me smell bacon, oh wait that was my brain sizziling from the information overload. the only blackhole ive seen was one in the background of the main menu.

*Insert sig here*

That was removed in early game testing. The file is still there though, I need to find a mod that has it there.

I bet you that they add it in in an expantion though... seeing as how this game is like a full 3D, awesome Multiplayer Version of Escape Velocity (I know I know, its a Mac Game... but its the most popular one.)

I just want to see these three things if they make one.

1. More ships (this includes new ships from a new faction)
2. Blackholes or Supernova explotions (so far there have been statements of Supernova's... but I havnt seen any, yet.)
3. A huge war. Although I know the base's of the Storyline was the fact that everyone didnt want a HUGE war like the 100 year war (you know the intro video) but I still want to see 10 Battleships going at it with 50 fighters all around.

Thats what made X-Wing vs Tie-Fighter and Starlancer so great.

The massive... Massiveness of it ha.

For the expansion pack they really need to put in some new odd jobs. I think we all would like to see some smuggling, passenger ferrying or cargo missions available at the pub.

There's on in Omicron Alpha, if I'm not wrong. Look "downwards".

Ya thats the one im thinking of

It LOOKS like one, but I havnt desided to take the time to put my Ship on cruise and wait and see if it is or not.

Who knows, if it is that would be totally awesome.. but I dont think its actually a BLACKHOLE that you can go right up to.... Even though I wish it was.

Going into black hole will tear your ship apart so game over but see it and die it could be worth everything ...

(...) what? worlds are dissapearing? ummm... yes, it could be my fault (...)

It would be worth it... I WANT to fly into a black hole and have my ship go boom.

Damnit I think it would be totally awesome to see a blackhole sucking away a sun, thats what this game needs!

Its not like a little black hole would destroy an entire system, it would just suck away at anything within 10 Kliks of it.
