Excerpt From The Book, Gravity's Time

Ship's Technological Characteristics

A. Deflective Shielding and Protective Shielding.

1. Protective Shielding is implemented to guard the ship against non-solid objects such as very hot gases, radiation, small focused gravity sources, solar flares, unexplained anomalies, extreme electromagnetic sources, and plasma. An intense deflective gravity field (using reverse gravity waves) is generated from the surface of the ship up to six inches (sort of a transparent airtight suit of armor). 2. Deflective shielding is placed into operation to protect the ship against solid objects; at twenty-five times the speed of light, a spec of dust would fly right through the ship as a riffle bullet through space. A rock the size of a fist would fly through the ship as a missile through the vacuum of space. Conflicting gravimetric waves are generated from the surface of the ship outwards to a distance of 16 feet. In essence, a dense atmospheric field (35 times that of earth) is generated to deflect solid objects or to burn them up before striking the ship’s surface simulating a meteor striking the atmosphere of a planet. Small objects get burned up, and larger ones will be deflected away. Any objects in space the size of a desk or larger should be detected by the ship’s object sensors, and the ship’s course should be automatically corrected. If course correction is not implemented properly, the ship will experience a sudden “Course Shear”, and this could be very dangerous. This would create extreme spatial turbulence.
