And to the above poster: Does every being in the universe have to be of the same intelligence? I don't think so.
So, naturaly, there is a race somewhere who is capable of building such ships for this task.
That's a non-sequitur. Humans are EXTREMELY well versed in computer sciences, but we know virtually NOTHING about the bottom of the ocean. Just because a species has obtained the means to travel through the universe, doesn't mean that they're omniscient. As a matter of fact, the
only reason that humans are led to believe what you say is because we believe that interstellar travel is complex. Because it is.
To us. To a species who has already developed it, that is simply not the case. In other words, that you say what you said only serves to prove my point further.
Longfellow. Interesting. No, I've never heard of it, but, at any rate, I was referring to the fact that you or I can't just say "IMA GO ON A SUNDAY INTERPLANETARY DRIVE!", hop into our supersuperfloatycar 1337,000 (Yes. Four numbers without a comma.), and fly around space. XD. Still, nice point.
Speaking of which, how did you manage to learn as much as you know in such underground topics? Not secrecy underground. More like "no-one's ever heard of the damn thing, even though they should've because it's amazingly deep and philosophical."
Might I add that project orion may not even exist. It also may be 20 years obsolete. Not to be a tin-foil hat wearing conspiracist, but the government STRICTLY controls most all information, ESPECIALLY that of government organizations, such as NASA. Agree?
EDIT:
Quote from: WikipediaThe 'base design' consisted of a 4000 ton model planned for ground launch from Jackass Flats, Nevada.
As infantile as it may be, I can't help but crap my pants laughing.
