You will understand the title at one level by knowing that I have been a fan of the Boston Red Sox for about seventy years. This loyalty was partially rewarded about seventeen years ago when by chance I had the pleasure of spending an hour with my boyhood hero, Ted Williams. At about the time that I started to follow the Red Sox games by radio, I acquired the notion that I would like someday to...

We present n-dimensional vortex-ring-like and potential-like solutions with unusual properties related to some elliptical differential equations with compact sources. Solutions have almost 3-or 2-dimensional behaviour in the spaces with arbitrary (large) odd and even dimensions, respectively.

In the DE-STAR lab, we propose to use phased laser array with photon propellant in order to achieve significantly higher speed for the spacecraft. During the simulation, the laser is sometimes turned off to avoid cancellation of force or acceleration. However, if we shut off the laser accurately, the duration rises and drops even when the launch time is altered slightly, which makes the real im...
