Plus, I don't think tachyons are affected by magnetic fields, those fictional things say particle blabla is contained by a magnetic field generated by blablabla...

Heavy water catches tahyons. No wait, heavy water chatches neutrinos...

Tachyons (faster than light particles) are hypothetical, a thought experiment more than anything. If they were common, we would know.

[Sgt. Rho]

I though the existence of tachyons was proven?

[Dauth]

Tacheyons exist in materials, light speed is only the max speed in free space, in water you can get electrons faster than light in water, they give out a shockwave of cherenkov radiation.

Kind of off topic, remember, in HS, the space-time is too dense to bent by common things and cause gravity, so you wouldn't be crushed by gravity because there is none. Also, tachyons have nothing to do with this nor does a warp engine/ an FTL engine/ a HS engine, I'm saying hyperspace is what we know as the voids in the universe that are absense of matter (as most if not all got sucked into the dark matter net because it's gravitic pull was so strong comparitively and since there was no gravity, they were repelled+ pushed away until they got stuck.

So that's why reactors suspended in fluid give off a blue glow?

Topics evolve, and hyperspace has been pretty much ignored since no one has really grasped the idea.

Would be a possible reason, I don't know the energy spectra involved but blue is a reasonable colour for the glow.

[Rich19]

Yes, that's where the blue glow comes from.

Again, this has nothing to do with tachyons, I have a seperate topic about that, this is hyperspace and hyperspace only!
