JeffreysTubes8 Posted August 12 Report Share Posted August 12 A number of diseases including bone degeneration and segregation can occur abord your spacecraft however knowing the width of an oxygen molecule you can leave gaps in the carbon nanotubes just a bit wider so they slip through, the more that slip through the greater the wind pressure, also the craft would need to continuously produce oxygen, https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.sciencealert.com/physicists-claim-they-ve-finally-observed-matter-being-made-out-of-colliding-light/amp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HallsofIvy Posted August 13 Report Share Posted August 13 I really don't understand this. You title this "artificial gravity" but talk about producing an "artificial wind" that has nothing to do with gravity or with the "bone degeneration" you mention. And then you have a link to a site on light energy converting to matter so has nothing to do with artificial wind or gravity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wind pressure and gravity are effectively the same, given that pressure is uniform, evenly distributed, and constant. Generating atoms from energy is key in constantly making more oxygen slipping out of the floor though the cracks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkmatter42 Posted August 26 Report Share Posted August 26 Wouldn't it just be easier to use centripetal force? What you are describing sounds very complicated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you are describing sounds very complicated. It's just pinholes in the floor of a hull for constant vacuum pressure. It's actually more expedient than producing centrifugal force afaict Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HallsofIvy Posted October 12 Report Share Posted October 12 No, wind pressure and gravity are NOT "effectively the same". Wind pressure acts on the surface of the skin while gravity acts throughout the body. In order for wind pressure to apply the same force to the body as gravity the pressure on the skin would have to be enormous- and painful!
