Editing Talk:1486: Vacuum

This is obviously a reference to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_energy Vacuum Energy].
The "Tremendous" part is because calculation based on quantum electrodynamics suggest it should be 100 order of magnitudes larger than measured (That is a "1" with 100 zeros after it). [[Special:Contributions/141.101.98.202|141.101.98.202]] 09:42, 13 February 2015 (UTC)

:::can't speak to your antivirus, but I don't see any problem with the site (TVTropes) - it's a page about a video game called "Terramex" (which in summary is a game about adventurers finding a scientist that can prevent a meteor from hitting Earth) - no idea what that might have to do with vacuum energy, vacuum cleaners, living rooms, berets, or billiard balls, or even flying, but oh well -- [[User:Brettpeirce|Brettpeirce]] ([[User talk:Brettpeirce|talk]]) 12:55, 13 February 2015 (UTC)

Isn't 'the universe is mine to command!' a quote from Aladdin?? {{unsigned|Atty70}}

:Yes it is a quote from Aladdin (by Jafar when he becomes a genie)  [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0103639/quotes]. It is also a quote from "insert your bond/sci-movie here" as it is the usual goal for any scientist that creates a lot of energy or a new weapon (only exception to this is in the real world with Einstein and the atomic bomb). Maybe something to add to the description (looking at someone with better english and story telling skills than I got) [[User:Aquaplanet|Aquaplanet]] ([[User talk:Aquaplanet|talk]]) 12:44, 13 February 2015 (UTC)

Has anyone found a calculation or example of how much energy would be required to run a "vacuum  (in the space time sense) cleaner"? And what would it be cleaning exactly?  [[User:Iggynelix|Iggynelix]] ([[User talk:Iggynelix|talk]]) 18:50, 13 February 2015 (UTC)

:I suppose it would clean a soft vacuum into a hard vacuum, so it would be cleaning particles.  Which is kind of exactly what vacuum (in the household appliance sense) cleaner does, just on a larger scale. [[User:Shishire|Shishire]] ([[User talk:Shishire|talk]]) 20:57, 13 February 2015 (UTC)

:I want one too. But i must say i found the idea of accidentially tapping vacuum energy with a vacuumer extremely far fetched.

On an additional, additional note, the vacuum cleaner was invented based on a music hall demonstration of a cleaning machine that blew instead of sucked, and the person watching the demonstration got the idea that the machine would "suck" less if it sucked, if you get my meaning. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_cleaner#Vacuum_cleaner --[[User:RenniePet|RenniePet]] ([[User talk:RenniePet|talk]]) 12:14, 14 February 2015 (UTC)
