Now apparantly in the Stargate universe they've used alien tech to create railguns, weapons which in real life are still on the drawing board. But what about particle accelerators? The SGC have sufficient power sources, the SGC has pfobably gained the knowledge from allies on particle physics for driving the ion engines on Earth ships, and finally it seems an efficent weapon; particles accelerated at near-light-speeds that carry so much energy they can cause their target to explod on contact.

I thought i remember reading somewhere that some battle ships today have rail guns onboard?
I would like to see the use of particle accelerators or some kind of beam weapon on ships but im not sure they're really all that powerful yet, i suspect what they have atm only can cause a bit of damage over a long period of time.

so wouldnt a rail gun be more powerfull, perhap the rail gun is an extention to using the particle accelerators in earlier seasons...and not an asgard intervention like we assumed.sigpic

couldnt we do both? use an alternating system of particles and pellets and fire 1 pellet or 3 pellets then a particle to go straight through?sigpic

I'd like the Writers touch on other theoretical weaponry, like mass drivers.You go ahead, I'll be right behind you (In an F-302)

perhaps they will, i mean they have stated they like exploring the contriversies of science and science fiction...mass driver?sigpic

I read an article in Popular Science about the future of warfare. The concept was like this: A railgun is mounted on an all-electric destroyer. The railguns accelerate nonexplosive projectiles to mach 7. (You can find some of this in Navy magazine advertisements)Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate.
