Would it be possible to explore the universe looking for planets containing water?

Question

As water will contain deuterium, it just needs extraction to provide a fuel source that is very easy to collect from any planet containing water. This would provide an inexaustable supply for a resonant magnetic fusion reactor on board, and enable "planet hopping" without losing power. - providing it landed in the water.

Answer 1

This idea seems a optional, and has risks. Deuterium extraction may be helpful for space colonization but chances to land on planets having water is very neglisible. Moreever it will limit the exploration. The better option for space exploration is using solar power. The new technology of solar space satellites can harvest enough energy for both solar exploration and space colony.  This technology is also good solution for todays energy demand. 5 gigawatt of energy can be harvested using 1 kilometer of space solar collector.

Answer 2

A fusion reactor wouldn't provide much thrust to enable us to travel fast enough to really explore deep space unless you're a "very very patient person". We need a faster than light(FTL) method of propulsion.

Answer 3

It's very possible to go out there and look for water bearing worlds, but using deuterium as an energy source could be lethal, especially if you don't find any water for a long time and you run out.

Solar panels probably won't work, as the energy generated from them can not approach that of the energy requirement needed for propulsion...at least at high speeds. You'd have to coast with very little acceleration over time to get anywhere, and then there's the gravitational of bodies in space, where you would need 'escape' velocities. That is probably more power than any solar energy array collecting could ever muster up.

Interesting you mentioned GIZA. The Archaelogy of the pyramids, and in reference to space faring and technology....well I have been studying some real physics based in that time period. It's not about deuterium either. It's about vibrational vortex implosion physics. This stuff is vastly superior to all known forms of propulsion. If you want more, email me privately, and I will show you where to look for it.

Answer 4

You don't need water to get deuterium. There is plenty of deuterium in Jupiter's atmosphere, which is mostly hydrogen gas, for example. And I expect other fuels would be usable to any technology advanced enough to consider such a plan.

Answer 5

Your idea is good but it is really very risky to do it because it is deuterium that is being used which is very dangerous solution.And as for ur idea of collecting water how is it that u are gonna find water in other planets and to move round different planets it takes lot of time.

Let us assume that after investigating our solar system we have to move to other planet that is very far , might be it may take a year or so to travel that far and we need to create space shuttles like the ones they show the movie star wars...

This proposition of yours will not be agreed by everyone and after u are out of this world it is not quite sure that anyone will still continue the journey..

This is a very long journey...

good proposition but need to think in every direction then only a good theory is formed...
