This is literally straight out of 3 Body Problem - book 3 iirc written like 10 years ago
Basically creating a low density area next to a high density area will cause the high density to rush to low density to fill the void, ya know, like wind.
He explains it better in 3body
And even at the speed of light, we would never reach "The end of the cosmos," because the universe is expanding at the speed of light.
Hense why as you go closer to the speed of light you experience time more slowly than an observer, because time is basically a by-product of this expansion. You would never even reach the next galaxy because we're moving away from each other at the speed of light.
Edit: At least not with this method. We would need a warp like in Event Horizon.
I'd prefer to avoid almost anything like in Event Horizon.
Why, are you that attached to your eyes?
Too bad Morpheus didn't have John Wick on that spaceship. We know they had a pencil, and John Wick could have taken care of business with a pencil.
Damn fine movie.
That doesn't sound right. That would mean that every year, every galaxy gets another light year further from earth. AFAIK the universe expands at different rates depending on distance from the observer.
