Graviphone: World's Most Expensive Phone Call
Hi, I'm Chase! I havent really done much blog posting like this before but I guess I'll just jump right in!
Seeing as gravity can travel as a wave, would it be possible to employ it in a similar way we do with the electromagnetic force? For example, a device I imagined would be made up of an array of charged micro black holes, confined to their locations by precise, powerful magnets. The black holes could then be vibrated to create small waves in space, which then would be picked up by another of the same arrays. As the waves pass over the array of the receiver, it's black holes oscillate, creating fluctuations in it's own magnets, which in turn would generate an electric signal in the same way a telephone does. I know that this certainly isn't practical today, nor may it be in the future (It could just be the world's most expensive phone call!). Technology does has a way of sneaking up and surprising you though. I like to dream about the possibilities and impossibilities.

Hey chasedj, we are a bunch of thirteen year olds that came up with this idea in september of 2012. We are workng on a project for Exploravision and we would like you to help us in research. We were shocked to find another person who thought of this BRILLIANT idea, so we hope you consider it. Don't sue. We probably won't win anyways.
ReplyDeleteI'm with the girl above or under, whichever one. We would really appreciate if you could help us. Keep in mind that we are thirteen and we just found this blog today and we came up with this idea in September. Would you care to let us KEEP the idea? Since we kind of came up with it before you to enter a contest for our school marks.
ReplyDeleteHey guys! So sorry about taking so long. I originally came up with this idea in June 2011 but I've never been much of a blogger before. That is really amazing we both had such similar ideas! Is there anywhere I can see your original work? If there are any of my ideas you would like to use for your class project feel free, but I would like to still be credited with whatever you use. Citing my blog would be one way, as well as mentioning how odd it was that we both drew similar conclusions. If you're comfortable, could you link me to your project or discuss a little of it with me? As for research I'm not too sure what you mean or what I could help you with but please divulge more! I look forward to hearing from you! And best of luck on your project!
