Maybe they'll be locked in Mycellial battle in the trippy dream forest for all eternity, blocking us access to the network! "What of Stamets...?"
First we have to understand what (possible) Mycellial, spores are. In my opinion Mycellial, spores = future development of the Superstring theory. Describing in more detail a superstringfield which is the Mycellial network. Basicly Gerard t' Hoofd explains Superstrings theory as a pre-quantum condition. To keep it short if you could unify quantum mechanics with string theory you ends up with 2 dimensonal particles or superstringfield that probebly could exist in an superposition what means that you could be simultanious in muliple positons at once in space and time where distance, time or for that matter warpdrive or quantum slipstream are irelevant. Now at fermilab they try with a holometer (at the planck scale) to find these strings ha ha spors. Til now they didn't find it probably due to sensitivity issius (how small is the Planck scale realy) Large Hadron Colider is doing the same sort of recearch. It could mean spooky things that we live in a holografic univers. So stamet is an interface who could manipulate on the string (spore) level the position of the discovry in time and space making use of in the quatum realm superposition. If star trek discovery could give an insight in Superstring theory i would say bring it on because this involves our own univers and go's way above our imagination and dire reality.
This is exactly how I always expected the spore drive to be resolved. The Federation gives up Spore Drive tech to gain peace with the Klingons, just like they gave up Cloaking tech to gain peace with the Romulans.
it ends up in the scrap-heap of "well-that seemed like a good idea drives", like transwarp and the soliton wave, "Let us never speak of this again"
Have you heard? This is the 21st century audience were everything must be explained, down to buttons on the wall. Not just Star Trek either. Rian Johnson is having to talk about every thing in The Last Jedi and explaining it all.
I do not understand the stuff about the last Jedi. I heard some of the issues with it and was like "Someone needs to explain this context to you? Really?"
I loved the movie myself, Top 3 SW for me. But really, some stuff was so very clear and people are asking for EVERYTHING to be spelled out like they are in kindergarten
Not only that, but now there is a petition for Johnson to apologize for the film. Link to Facebook post from a page I follow and his commentary on it.
Star trek is from the begining build on real science (but twisted) as far as the writers Could understand current science like the principle of quantum entanglement unified with String theory (if strings exist). It is all they got and than go loose with their fantasy which is fine. But for a real scientist in the field of quantum mechanics it's a bit funny. But you never know what the writers fantasy could lead to or reveal.
Yes you are right their is a correlation (information) between 2 particles where the distance between them is not relevant. I'm not describing matter (particles) but strings/spors who (mabey) exist only in 2 dimensions. But what is not unified (pure from a theoretically point of view) is string theory combined with Quantum mechanics an Quantum entanglement particulary. Then it get interesting to find out how a Mycellial network I (if a Mycellial/spors network exist as strings) will or will not interact. Difference between particles and strings are that particles exist only in 4 dimensions (3 in space and 1 in time) an strings are made of 2 dimensions (theorarticly). It would be interessting to know if (2 dimensional) strings could also be in a Quantum entanglement/superposition. If that is the case then (let me realy fantasies now) 2 dimensional objects like strings could be much easier to manipulate (moving the Discovery in an instance over unlimited distance) as a complex hologram for instance becoming particles/matter only when it is observed (wave function collaps don't know if this also applies for strings). If that is the case we end up that our current univers is in fact a holografic univers. So "The law of attraction" their is after all some truth in.
