It’d be cool if we made a black hole type bullet that would suck someone or something in completely on impact and dissolve. Not sure if feasible though.

- InCityDreams 4y agoSome parts of heyjackass.com immediately sprang to mind.
- h2odragon 4y agoVastly increasing the target's density would do for that; no need to go past that into full singularity. cf "Neutronium Alchemist" in Peter F Hamilton stories. It'll never be as simple or satisfying as the old school hammer.
- pas 4y agoyes, but no :) so as the blackhole gets smaller the more energy it radiates, eventually basically blowing up. so simply put a small BH in a magnetic trap next to someone. but if you shoot it it'll go too fast to stay put. though it might be possible to release a small one next to someone slowly. small means ~ 1 million kg, which evaporates in 84 seconds, though it will emit so much energy that... well it will turn a city into plasma almost instantly https://www.omnicalculator.com/physics/black-hole-temperature https://www.omnicalculator.com/physics/black-hole-temperatur... basically the problem is that either general relativity and Hawking are correct, which mean that there is simply no way to have a small (compared to human mass, so like a big bomb, eg a few metric tons) black hole that doesn't violently want to turn back into a non-blackhole, or if it's possible then our theories are incorrect and all bets are off :)
- sliken 4y agoSeems just like a grenade. You time the throw so your target gets destroyed. Incredibly efficient, since unlike nuclear or fusion nukes 100% of the matter gets turned into energy.
