"The science and fiction of Space Empires" |
I read this in the thread "Space Empires V and VI: Expansions and the Future: Tell the Company What's on Your Wish List". It sounded like a good idea to create a new thread with this title suggested by Weber Fan.

LOL. I now officially declare this thread hijacked.
It seems to me like we should start a whole new thread called "The science and fiction of space empires" and go to town arguing about what science fiction concepts are and are not feasible.
That said, I think it is hard for us to imagine what will be possible 100 years from now let alone 1000 years from now. Think about computers for example... construction on such a small scale must have seemed downright impossible to poeple who lived 1000 years ago... who knows what will be possible in the future. Our physics of today is by no means definative. Any physicist you speak to will admit there's still much in this universe we don't know and our models can't explain."

Did I just bump a year-old thread? Whoops!
I thought this thread was a week old. Deleted my post, so that the thread will go back to where it came from.
