Noetherian Travel

A theoretical propulsion concept that abuses the symmetry-conservation link for movement without apparent reaction. It seeks to engineer a scenario where the symmetry of your vehicle's local physical laws is carefully manipulated, and the resulting conserved quantity (usually momentum) is not expelled locally but is instead "handed off" to a distant field or another part of spacetime geometry. The goal is motion that looks like it violates Newton's third law (for every action, an equal reaction) by satisfying it non-locally via deep physics.

Example: The "Phase Sail." The ship's drive doesn't expel mass. Instead, it cyclically changes the internal gauge symmetry of its quantum vacuum core. Noether's Theorem says this changing symmetry must be accompanied by a conserved current (momentum). By coupling this process to the ship's hull and, crucially, to the background Higgs field of the universe, the momentum conservation is satisfied by imparting an infinitesimally small, opposite change in the field's configuration across the cosmos. The ship moves because the entire universe imperceptibly "pushes back" in a diffuse, non-local way. You're not pushing against anything nearby; you're leveraging the universe as your reaction mass.

Gaming time travel.

When a child usually between 11 and 15 that plays video games and convinces himself that he is doing the right thing for his life and that everything else such as homework or friends is irrelevant, hence years and years go by and he only left his room to go take a shit only to realize that he is now 17 and he should've listened to his mother.

Bob: i'M 17 years old did I really just waste 4 years of my life playing World Of Warcraft?
Joe: Yeah dude you wen't through a Gaming Time Travel.
Bob: My posture is all fucked up now and my ass smells from the computer seat.

Mental Space-travel

To be in the state of mind where the world is your instrument. You are a floating wisp through space and time. Your ideas and thoughts extend beyond society’s frontier. You have dreams and projects that you won’t let anyone get in the way of no matter what. You are mobile and never settle with what you are comfortable with, you always strive to discover something new about yourself and your surroundings.

Person 1: Why do you have plane tickets to Egypt?

Person 2: I’m going to build an automated dildo machine on top of the pyramid of Giza which will be powered by the sun’s solar energy

Person 1: wtf why?

Person 2: I’m in a state of mental space-travel

Michigan Tech traveler

One who neither minds cold weather nor driving two days each way to visit family.

I can live in the U.P. for 20 years or more as a Michigan Tech traveler, especially with all the improvements in technology since last score!
