You don't need approval from anyone to write about topics. If you want to write a book about President Bush, you don't need his approval.

For sources of information, there are many other users who could easily supply you with what you need. But what matters most, is what type of novel? Fantasy, where you are a pilot for a squad, trying to defend your home world (base) from the evil enemy? A documentary on the history of Subspace, and its possible future?

basically, a science fiction gig focusing on main characters pilot in some kind of tournament. subspace ideas, like the same power source for weapons and shields, squads, warping etc will all feature. there's an abundance of story already, in every zone on continuum, provided by the fruit cakes who play 16 hour sessions. i think i could bring that out in a sci-fi novel.

but if someone owns the name "Subspace"; then would you not need permission to use it? Like, computer books always put in the copyright notice, "Microsoft" is a reg. trademark of blah DirectX is a reg. trademark of ... etc...

I recommended that he talk to ekted because he was looking to write a physics book based off of Subspace physics. Ekted is probably the best person to ask about that stuff so I told him to post here to get in touch him him.

The formula to kind kinetic friction is Fk = Fn * mu. mu = the coefficient of kinetic friction. However, mu is always equal to zero, so friction does not exist.

Also, contrary to popular belief, when you run into someone, the negative atomic charges do not repel the two people, but you naturally fly on top of the other person to get to the other side. From their point of view, however, they fly over you. See my book on Subspace relativity to find the explanation.

Jack has fourteen cats, one named Timmy, the rest have names based on the moods Jack feels on the rest of the days of the week. Although there are only seven days in the week, Jack didn't name any two cats the same, but instead discovered days of the week in between the days of the week. One day is named Aard. On Aard, Jack feels gullible and vulnerable to the sun's rays, which only touch the surface of skin for three hours every year. Even so, for every second the sun touches his skin, a red blood cell explodes in Timmy's body. Timmy only weighs 16N, but rapidly gains weight when hearing that Aard is coming up. The weight he gains is generally transferred to his tail, but only on one day of the week, Timmy's head swells to the size of a cannon ball. Aard doesn't permit any cannon balls because Aard is only theoretical, yet even so, Timmy must go with Jack to Aard to downsize the swelling. Jack has four apple trees in his back yard, and each apple weighs 1N, however, the apples only exist for fourteen minutes each year. The year is 1995, and the last time the apples were in existence, the apples weighed a strange 2N. Timmy was at fault because of the swelling in his head.

Today, Jack feels happy, yet gullible, so what is the day of the week, the year, the name of Jack's favorite cat, and the size of Jack's least favorite cat's tail in millimeters if Jack eats two apples, assuming the apples are in existence for only two more minutes?
