1 Recall Argument Against Travel! Communication is much cheaper than travel! Energy needed for Mass (M) at speed (v)! Travel! E = 1/2 Mv 2!if v much less than c! e.g., travel to nearest star (4 ly) in 40 yr!!!v = 0.1 c!! E = ergs!!!!!!for M = M (electron)! Photon!E = hν!!h = !!!!!!!ν = frequency! = ergs!!!if ν = 10 9 Hz! Ratio ~ 10 9 (and photon gets there in 4 yrs)! Why Consider Travel?! 100 M watt transmitter - 1 yr! $ ! Spacecraft to nearest star! ~ $ ! 1!
2 Reasons for Interstellar Travel! Reasons:! 1. Communication if searches fail! 2. Exploration of other planetary systems!!planetary Science!!Exobiology (many bacterial planets)!!!n l = R f p n e f l L l!l l > yr on Earth!!! Birth Rate!!L l!!n l Other Reasons! Colonization! Species Immortality! Could survive the end of life on Earth! The explorerʼs urge! to boldly go! Happy Feller!!50!!3 10 9! ! Angela Angst!! !3 10 9! ! Average Guy!!2.2!!3 10 9! ! Pattern of Solar System Exploration! 1. Ground-based observations (telescopes)! 2. Fly-by missions,!radio back results! 3. Orbit or land, Radio back results! 4. Mission with human beings!!return to Earth (Moon Only)! 5. Permanent Base!(Not Yet)! Expect similar for Interstellar! Except! No Round Trips! Distances to Stars ~ Light Years! Time = Distance (Ly) ~ 4 Ly = 40 yr! Speed (Ly/y) 0.1 c! Round trip = 80 y!!! Project Daedalus! Design study for Fly-by!!Barnardʼs Star!6 ly away! Inertial confinement fusion! (Ignite pellets of hydrogen w/lasers, particles)! Terrestrial fusion: 2 H + 3 H 4 He + n!!!! deuterium tritium causes problems! Daedalus:! 2 H + 3 He 4 He + p!!!!! charged, control with mag. Field! Δ E = mc 2! Problem: 3 He rare Mine Jupiter?! 2!
3 Current Status of Laser Fusion! National Ignition Facility Livermore National Lab! Beginning experiments with new lasers! 192 lasers focused on a tiny pellet of deuterium and tritium.! Goal is controlled fusion.! Design:!v = 0.12c!!travel for 50 yrs! 500 ton payload!!54,000 tons at takeoff!!!!!!50,000 tons of fuel! v e =10 4 km s 1!!R M = 12 or 100!!!!!!(payload)! s.i. = 10 6 sec! Faster Travel?! If we could travel close to speed of light! Time Slows down! Could travel more light years than years on the space ship clock! Though not on the clock on the home planet! 3!
4 Twin one! Earth! The Twin Paradox! Twin two! Alpha Centauri! Twin two! clock! 5 years! Earth! V =.866 C! 2.5 years! On-board clock! Twin one! (10 yrs older)! Gray Hair! Earth! Twin two! (5 yrs older)! Time measured by! Twin one! Time measured by Twin two! t = γ t 0! γ = 1! 1 (v/c) 2! Problems with fast travel! Mass ratio (R M ) increases rapidly with v! M = M o γ! at v = 0.99c, best possible fuel: R M = 14! You have to take fuel to slow down! Fuel is payload on the way out! R M = 14 x 14 = 196! To return you need all this fuel as payload! R M = 196 x 196 ~ 40,000! And you need antimatter-matter for R M =14! 4!
5 No Propellant?! Bussard RamJet! Scoop up fuel as you go! Problems! Very diffuse (need huge scoop)! Hydrogen is low-grade fuel! You want rare 2 H + 3 He! Future Fantasies?! Consider now some things that are outside physics as we know it, but might be possible.! Wormholes! General relativity:!!a. Einstein! Matter warps space-time! This warp is gravity! e.g. Black holes pinch off a piece of the! Universe - even light cannot escape! Rotating black hole wormhole (maybe)! 5!
6 Wormholes! Unlikely to form when a star collapses! View entering a wormhole artistʼs conception! If it forms, it is unstable! Traveler probably cannot pass through! Loophole - stabilize it somehow?! Exotic Matter?! Warp Drives! Faster than light travel?! Not possible for ordinary matter, physics! M = γ M 0 M as v c! The Universe now seems to have a lot of dark energy! Source unknown! Loophole:! c is a speed limit for motion in space-time! not of space-time! Acts like antigravity on large scales! Could we ever control this?! e.g., The space-time of the universe expanded! faster than c during very early inflationary! expansion! 6!
7 Alcubierre Warp! ~ 1994 Miguel Alcubierre suggested use of! exotic matter to surf a space-time distortion! Contract space in front, expand behind! Does exotic matter (negative mass) exist?! Can we control it?! Energy requirements! Back to Reality! Hard to decide if very advanced civilizations might develop such schemes! Use only laws of physics as constraint -!! apply to all civilizations, no matter how!! advanced their technology! Originally thought to exceed that available in entire! universe! Later calculations are less extreme! Colonization! t gal!= r gal! Colonization!!Assume Daedalus technology!t = d ~ 4 ly! = 40 yrs! v 0.1!!Multi-generational travel!!(space colony + propulsion)!!how long to colonize galaxy?! (v = 0.1 c)! v exp! v exp = 2d! t! t = d * + t reg! v! e.g.!!v = 0.1 c!!t reg = 500 yr! v exp = 4 ly x 2 ~ c!!!!540! If r gal = ly!!t gal = !!!!!! !!!!! ~ !!!!!! yr! 7!
8 Colonization! Time available: Age of galaxy minus time for first advanced civilization to arise:! ~ ! t colonization < < t Galaxy! How likely?! How many civilizations ever developed?! Colonization!!!!!Birthrate age of Galaxy = N (ever)! Happy Feller! 50! = ! Angela Angst = 375! Average Guy = ! If even one of these decided to colonize, it should! already have happened!! Possible consequences:! 1. Galactic community! 2. Solar-system has been visited! 3. Solar-system being monitored! 4. Solar-system leakage radiation detected?! Hart Hypothesis! Fact:!There are no intelligent beings from outer! Space on the Earth now.! Only 5 possible explanations:! 1. Space travel is not feasible! 2. Civilizations chose not to colonize! 3. Not enough time to colonize galaxy! 4. The Earth was visited but they did not colonize! 5. There are no other advanced civilizations! Answers to the Hart Hypothesis! 1. Colonization may be much slower!!10 6 yr regeneration t colon > yrs! 2. Nomads/explorers make trips, not colonists!! 3. May be harder to adapt to life on a new planet than!! we think.!!we need 20 essential amino acids! 4. Optimistʼs time scale for colonization > t for biological evolution!!maybe >>! 5.!Possible development of ecological ethic!!do not interfere! 6.!They are here! UFOʼs! 8!
