slowly accelerate subject to significant percentage of light speed with acceptable g force

there's no reason why this can't be done

much more feasible than space travel because you don't have to worry about fuel
>>
How do you plan on gathering enough energy for that thing?
>>
the force that the wall would have to exert on your body to keep you in that shit "time machine" would kill you
>>
>>7685771
what force? you are accelerating it slowly so the person will live

at constant speed the person won't know it's spinning
>>
>>7685777
normal force equal to centripetal force
>>
>>7685778
>acceptable g force

at 1 g it'll take months to get to 50%, if you use a dessicated tardigrade or some other small organism that doesn't need much room for supplies and can handle higher g forces you can do it in less than a week
>>
>>7685782
the force is proportional to the square of velocity..

c^2 is a big number. You'd have to have a radius miles long for this to not kill the person.
>>
>>7685789
spin the whole thing in a larger flywheel that goes in the opposite direction to cancel it out
>>
>>7685794
fuck it do it with a bacterial culture then
>>
>>7685764
>/sci/'s attempt at engineering
Please stop.

there's no material out there that can withstand such forces if it's spinning.
