fewer moving parts

Rings as in railgun coils?

Railguns are exactly perfect for space gun

Just some power and aiming

Chemical spaceguns are much easier than railguns.

Yes

But pollution

Compared to rocket exhaust?

some what yes, as each ring would repeat and control the flow of the energy field around it. Controlling the field like tesla coils and electro magnets

You'd probably need to add heatsinks to whatever gun

The department head of computer science at my college just sent an email to students in response to the one from the president informing us that a hate crime had been committed on campus, and it just said the same exact shit, *and the salutation (that's what the final part right before the signature is called right?) fucking said "In unity,"*

what can a heatsink do in a vacuum?

transfer heat

if the gun is retaining heat, what are you transferring it to?

This school makes me puke

The heatsink

and then to the near vacuum of space?

The heat exits through the barrel opening.

>making your post in unity
>not just using FOSS
:^)

Yes, you remove the heatsink and put a new cold one in place

Throw it into space if you like

The point is that the vacuum of space would make it needed

Well could you use the spent heatsink to boil water and use steam to power stuff, and also cool the sinks for reuse?

The vacuum of space is like 3 K.

Or I guess watercooling would make more sense than carrying multiple heatsinks

what about making it into a thermoelectric generator?

What if we made it out of lasers and then we don't even need the gun to begin with

I'm afraid to post on facebook that it's international men's day because I know exactly what will happen

Lasers generate lots of heat too

>facebook

we live in a society

it's a real device btw, the seebeck device

generate the heat at your enemies

Post on christian mingle

yeah I'm tell aware that facebook is my problem

Not just at your enemies

well*

replace facebook and say "out loud on campus"

you'll get the same outcome

Dude, I just suggested we make the heatsink of a space gun literally out of lasers, and you're trying to tell me that might not be a good idea? How could it not be

blow up shit and study it for science
