[Question] [ I'm working on a simulator-type game which I want to be at least internally consistent, and which I'd like to work as close to reality as possible. That being said, it's set in space, which means to avoid player boredom there needs to be some kind of FTL travel. I'm trying to work in functional analogs t...

[Question] [ An Orbital is a miniature ringworld used by the Culture in Iain M. Banks's Culture series. [Wikipedia has details on their basic structure](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_%28The_Culture%29), but to simplify, the main difference from a Niven ringworld is that they're much smaller and orbit the sun ...
[Question] [ The basic question is: # When is a location good enough to build a space centre on it? Some info to the function of the space-centre: * The space centre has a lot of traffic, also humans.

[Question] [ # How to approach this problem! **Numerically.** Trying to find some closed form equation to spit things out is extremely difficult, especially in the face of how well this lends itself to numeric methods.

[Question] [ I am imagining a Harry-Potter-like magical scenario: A secret parallel society of magic wielders in our modern-day era, only known to those, who grew up in it or those, who got initiated.

[Question] [ I have just found perhaps the biggest thing in the universe: A black hole named SDSS J010013.02+280225.8. It itself is 12 billion times more massive than our sun, and its accretion disk is 439 trillion times brighter. This could mean the universe's biggest habitable zone, right?

[Question] [ One day we will colonize another world, far far away. Importing anything will be vastly expensive and slow. The more self-sufficient you can be, the better.

[Question] [ In science fiction dealing with multiple intelligent species, "year" is still often used as a unit of time - like when describing a character's age - even when dealing with species that originate from a planet different than Earth. Year length as we know it is determined by the period of a planet's rotat...

[Question] [ Perhaps you know of pneumatic weapons also called airguns, but for those who don't; they're weapons that use air as propellant to launch a projectile rather than for example black powder or smokeless powder. They've been used as battlefield weapons, the most notable is probably the Girardoni air rifle <h...

[Question] [ A "Solar Jet" in my imagination would be a thruster that collects solar wind with magnetic fields, charges the particles, then expels those charged particles through a nozzle. It could be run on a reactor, solar power or any other high performance power source. Calling it a jet is because it resembles co...

[Question] [ So in my setting there is a small and exclusive group of people that have access to devices that work like computers (but which are *not* the same as computers.

[Question] [ Interstellar travel is hard and complicated, yet I want to have a plausible interstellar propulsion system for my setting. Rockets are out because of the rocket equation and the horrible top speeds even if antimatter is used. Laser-sails are out because they can't slow down. Ramscoops are out because whi...
[Question] [ Consider a planet with life forms, which are different than those found here on Earth, orbiting a star similar to the Sun. Such life forms don't use oxygen and, therefore, the planet's atmosphere is devoid of it. Since ozone is formed by diatomic oxygen photolysis, there is also not a ozone layer, but li...
[Question] [ A race of mine terraforms planets to cater to their need for a higher atmospheric oxygen content of about 45% (They are insect like, who would've imagined), so I was wondering how it would affect a planet if such a terraforming program ran longer than it supposed to be. At some point the high oxygen cont...
[Question] [ Let's imagine a planet that is 5000 km in diameter but has the mass of the Earth. I'd imagine standing on that planet might feel similar to standing on the Earth, because the gravity would be comparable.

[Question] [ I'm designing an alien species, whose blood is highly acidic and can easily cause someone's hand to melt down.

[Question] [ ## Premise We have found [extremophiles](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extremophile) of the aquatic and microscopic types here on Earth, but so far large terrestrial extremophiles are the stuff of conjecture only.

[Question] [ A while back I saw [this video](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=lgkqbHJczWs) talking about the habitability of double planets and Rocheworlds.

[Question] [ In my world, zinc is useful as an anti-magic material. This ability manifested shortly after the discovery of magic, and now zinc will erode and decay when exposed to magic, dissipating into nothingness as it disperses the magical effects directed at it.
