So, theoretically, without high-g suits, the human passengers aboard the Millennium Falcon would black out when the ship took high-g turns, even without traveling as fast as Han Solo has bragged it can. Twelve g's is about the maximum that jet-fighter pilots can experience before passing out, but this assumes they're wearing g-suits, which squeeze the legs in high-g situations to prevent blood from being pushed down. Īt 1 g, we can still push blood up to our brains, but as the g's increase, this becomes more difficult. This is comparable to being in a gravitational field 12 times higher than what we normally experience on Earth. According to calculations from Wired, passengers aboard the Millennium Falcon could experience up to about 12 g's while traveling at the speeds portrayed in the films (though this might not be the case if they are traveling through hyperspace). Recently, researchers put the EmDrive to the test and found that the thrust it produced comes from some kind of electromagnetic interaction that is likely between the engine's power cables and Earth's magnetic field, according to their study This might not be the end of the EmDrive as a potential, future engine - but it certainly isn't a hyperdrive.Įven if we suspend our disbelief and accept the ship's speed, another issue arises: g-forces. But it bounces microwaves around a chamber as a substitute for propellant. This is not a hyperdrive, or a warp drive as some have suggested. Now, there is some excitement in the scientific community surrounding an engine called the EmDrive. Stephen Hsu, a professor of theoretical physics at the University of Oregon, told our sister site Live Science, "You would need some very exotic type of matter in order to stabilize a wormhole, and it's not clear whether such matter exists in the universe." So, because we can't prove their existence, we certainly can't manipulate them for our own purposes.
