With a bunch of spread out bombs in a brown star to spread out the nucleons then have a jet collector then ?

Question

in having the nucleons spread out for light years from the brown star the one jet collector and compactor to make the particles ultra charged out the back to gain speed like the Carl Sagan idea

Answer 1

1. Why blow up an innocuous brown dwarf?

There are plenty of gas clouds out there,

some of them ionized.

2. Those "collecotors' are 'faaar out'  theory.

We will probably never be able to create magnetic fields

that large at that strength.

3.No matter how much energy you collect, you will not

achieve or exceed the speed of light.

Don't stop dreaming. Just try to be more realistic abpout it.

You won't look quite so foolish.

Answer 2

1. Brown Dwarfs are at least 75-80 times the mass of Jupiter. That would take a lot of firepower to blow up.

2. We don't have antimatter bombs; they only exist on Star Trek.

3. If we had antimatter bombs, they couldn't spread a Brown dwarf across several light years. At least not for several hundred thousand years, if not millions. Particles in any kind of explosion would still travel at much less than the speed of light. So if light takes a year to go one light-year (hence the name), ordinary particles would take much, much longer.

4. If your Brown dwarfs were blown 'several light years apart', then wouldn't you need a collector that wide to scoop them up again? Seems terribly inefficient.

5. Particles stripped of their electrons are used in ion drives. Brown dwarfs are probably mostly hydrogen, and AFAIK, those are not used in any current designs for ion drives.

So to answer your final question, no.

EDIT: "a pre jet to go into a brown dwarf and then align all the particles in a direct line for another space craft to direct itself rather in a circle" - So you're saying somehow a 'pre-jet' enters a Brown dwarf and organizes all the particles in a straight line for the mothership to direct itself in a circle? Two questions:

1. How do you align particles in an object 75 times more massive than Jupiter in a straight line?

2. How does the mothership move in a straight line if it's traveling in a circle?

I think it's pretty clear that whatever you're proposing won't work. The answer is still no.

Answer 3

Duh?

Answer 4

Didn't follow that... maybe a link?

Answer 5

Beware of ideas such as this one, which require someone with fantasy technological powers to smooth the way for someone else to apply more mundane principles to get chores done. If a race of creatures had the ability to scatter the mass of a brown dwarf into a stream through which a Bussard ramjet could more easily fly, then they probably would find it unnecessary to do it, finding it rather easier and simpler to use the same energy more directly as propulsion.
