Re. square root of negative one: Barry Cox and James Hill found a way to extend the special relativity equations that avoids imaginary numbers at +C velocities: <a href="http://www.space.com/17951-einstein-relativity-faster-than-light-travel.html;" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.space.com/17951-einstein-relativity-faster-than-light-travel.html;</a> no proof that this is anything more than a mathematical stunt though

2017-03-11 13:19:58 +0000 UTCI remember watching Space Odyssey: Voyage to the Planets. The BBC version is longer than the American version, which was cut for commercials. I remember the medical officer dying of cancer, and couldn't take the necessary medication without fear of contaminating the water supply. Even at the time of this docudrama, NASA had worked out how to do it, and get water out in the end from gray water. (Not black water). And as Time Marches On, we now have graphene clothes that would do the job without at problem. And finally, you need to add some panels from FreeFall with Doctor Bowman for the Genetically Engineered Animals. I think you can probably find them. :-)
