Passing Through Walls
I realize that this is a fantastical idea, but I would love to hear other peoples thoughts and knowledge in pursuit of expanding this idea. Don't be afraid to throw out wild ideas. Shooting for the stars will allow you to hit the moon.
In order for one object to pass through another, all the negative space between the particles of each solid must be aligned.
Unfortunately, the chance of all the particles that make up a solid object aligning their negative space exactly with the negative space between the particles of another solid object is infinitely unlikely.
Now, this is just my imagination running wild, but what if you could create a mechanism or system that could predict the positions of particles and their negative space in a solid object and then simultaneously reposition the particles of the second solid object to match the negative space of the first object? This would allow solid objects to pass through other solid objects.
Below is a little 2D sketch of how this works. Very simply... The key would be to match negative space.
It would be like fitting puzzle pieces together. Think of how gasses can pass through other gasses. This happens because there is a massive amount of space between the molecules of the opposing gasses. This does not work so readily with solids because the particles of a solid are so densely packed.
Think about how water passes through a strainer....
Even more exciting could be the possibilities of transportation. What if you could perfectly align and position the molecules of solid objects to match that of the negative space of other solid objects at will? At what speed would this happen, and if you had access to that kind of speed and molecular malleability, would this be a sort of quantum engine?
