Never say never is a true statement for a lot of things. But in this particular case it is safe to say never. Again I am refering to Back to the future cars. A flying car with wings or a rotor or a jet turbine under the floor powered by a nuclear reactor is entirely possible. But this is not what the people want. What they want is impossible with our gravity. It is physically impossible. We have a levitating Train already the Transrapid but it levitates millimeters above the track and needs tons of highend technology to not be pushed from the tracks. The electromagnetic approach would be hard because the cars would slide down from the magnetic field also we would need hundreds of TRILLION Dollars to convert the streets technologically to offer a super strong EM field. Also we would need energy a lot of it magnitudes over the current worldwide need just to power the streets. And what we would get is cars levitating 10 inch above the floor heavy as hell. Not one advantage no flying in different levels no leaving the streets. nothing Also it would destroy our Iphones/Notebooks and stop communication over phones because the magnets would influence every speaker next to a street. And people so paranoid about unhealthy EM fields would go nuts if every street has a Million times stronger EM field then earth has. For flying cars which are economically useful and offer all the desired SCIFI advantages like flying were you want in a car like shape flying in different levels to never get in a jam. To have a smooth driving experience without loosing your hearing. To not kill or destroy everything beneath you and relie on a Plutonium powered car. There is only one solution: that is creating an Antigravity like field under the car.Nobody has seen a force that acts accordingly. Not here not anywhere else in the Universe. Its not even sure that gravity itself is a force. Maybe there is a Higgs field and we learn to manipulate it. Lets say there is a possible way just for the heck of it. The ability to manipulate the quantum world in a way to switch gravity on and off as we please to bend space as we please means we can manipulate everything else. Which would make us gods. Flying cars on moon are possible not on earth. There is no possible/practical approach. There just isnt, I already checked. And there never will be the consequences of doing that on earth would mean we dont need cars anymore. |

I'm no expert in any of this,but I have to disagree with some of what you said. What people thought impossible 100-150 yrs ago is now possible. there might not be a possilbe/practical apporach now so to speak,but maybe no one has discovered one yet. I can only imagine what's going to be possible in another 100-150 yrs from now.
