"It can be a challenge to feel grounded when even gravity is artificial."

Artificial gravity, or synthetic gravity, was a collection of systems designed to mimic the gravity of a planet so that working in low or no gravity was easier. One of the first uses of artificial gravity on Earth ships was in the 1990s on ships such as the SS Botany Bay and cryonics satellites. The field generated by artificial gravity has an interactive relationship with the warp field. (TOS: "Space Seed"; TNG: "The Neutral Zone"; TNG: "Booby Trap" okudagram)

The basis of the Federation's artificial gravity technology was a "Flying belt" found in a Slaver stasis box. (TAS: "The Slaver Weapon")

Elaysians had difficulty adjusting to the gravity of other worlds because their home planet had such low gravity. Without surgery, they needed to utilize a special chair or braces to allowed them to move. (DS9: "Melora")

In the mid-24th century, Doctor Leah Brahms was the author of the technical manual Synthetic Grav Field Interaction Considerations. A copy of this manual was stored in the Galaxy-class USS Enterprise's Engineering Systems Database. (TNG: "Booby Trap", okudagram)

The USS Enterprise-D was equipped with a low-gravity gymnasium. (TNG: "Encounter at Farpoint")

Artificial gravity was created using generators embedded in gravity plating on the floor. Gravity levels in corridors and crew quarters could be adjusted."

This... deosn't actually tell me anything...

The ship is spinning so fast it looks like it isn't spinning at all
>but wouldn't this glue them to the walls and ceiling instead of the floor?
no obviously the warp field inverts it

They had artificial gravity plating that works using space meguffins and technobabble just like every other scifi space ship

So it was scifi BS, fucking Titan AE was more realistic than this shit...

All future scifi artifical gravity is BS because if it wasn't then we'd be using it on shit right now

They just take the gravity with them.

They invert the plasma conduits to create a tachion wave and then reionize it with a graviton field, it's pretty basic stuff

That's not necessarily true.
It could just require some resource we don't have much of.

the ships spin really fast

All future scifi flying to the moon is BS because if it wasn't then we'd be using it on shit right now

One of my favorite things about Babylon 5 was it's semi-realism for a futuristic sci-fi show. It's starships had to have rotating midsections to simulate artificial gravity. They couldn't just replicate any kind of food instantly, and as a result they couldn't get stuff like milk or eggs on the station because it spoiled before they could get it there. Most importantly, money still existed.

anyone else own this growing up?

Enterprise spins so fast you cant see it.

and this?

Yeah like letting air out of a balloon.

No, i was out having fun

Still do

A lot of cheap sci-fi shows like to use artificial gravity or say there's some fancy tech in the decking. Trouble being if they can control gravity that well it'll also be used as the ship's drive tech too - as in Asimov's Foundation series.

Real sci-fi of course builds its ships with the right orientation (like towers) and has fun with the zero-g moments when not under acceleration.

...

please tell me it's not the constant movement forward that's creating 'gravity' here

didn't they use some kind of centrifugal drum section to simulate gravity in cowboy bebop?

No it's the constant acceleration, not the movement, that keeps their boots on the decks in The Expanse.

In that webm the ship is hidden in orbit around one of Saturn's moons and the pilot starts playing drinking games while half-pissed.

Sections of a ship rotating around the central axis is another fav. method of creating 'gravity'. 2001's Discovery had an internal rotating ring, and 2010's Leonov had two large bits which spun around the central spindle - through crossing over from the central axis to the rotating arms must have been terrifying there.

Let's try a non-Ant-Man-approved sized pic here.

The discovery and the ability to synthesize oopsidasium made it possible and it was cheap.

So the Star Trek Universe is the same as the Ring World Universe? How the fuck does that make sense?

TAS is not canon.
