Space travel via black holes

artificial singularities for powering ships?

exactly

Just let me push the ships, I could pull off fast space travel.

in star trek, romulan spaceships are powered by artificial singularities. its pretty cool.

[Tomcat]

That sounds safe!

It's safer than this, and a graphite coating on the steel-plate used to propel the ship is a few inches which, which, surprisingly, is protectiong against the bombs enough. The steel-plate is a few feet thick.

The nuclear bomb launcher out the back a km or two, and then it detonates, propelling the ship.

Wait a minute what?

Screw black holes.

Worm holes are better.

Did you not see my post, dude!?

I saw it but didn't bother to read it.

But since it's a bad thing to agree with you or something I'll go change it to me pushing spaceships for lightspeed or something.

No read my post it's meant to be a funny. :(

I don't get it :s
Is it some sort of game reference or something?

[BBOY]

The thing is, what to happen to our gushy bodies over lightspeed..?

You poor, deprived child you.

Sounds like a great idea except for one thing:
It's a black hole.

Okay, so all they have to do is put a black hole into an engine. Sounds easy.

Wouldn't this
You know
Cause the ship to collapse in on itself
Because
You know
There's a black hole in there which has a super powerful gravitational field which would probably cause stuff to get sucked up

It would never happen. For a very big and obvious, glaring problem. It's a black hole. By definition it can't be stored inside a spaceship. It's an area of such condensed mass that it sucks everything, including light into it. You would need a big ass spaceship to even house one, and when I say "big ass" I mean bigger than Earth.

containing black holes is easy with space magic
