The main question is how much a high density electric or magnetic field can interfere with spacetime in order to affect a Gyroscope that is 50% inside this field and 50% outside.
By following article a magnetic field can produce a least a minimum distortion in spacetime.
If we have a inertia disk spinning 50% inside of a strong closed magnetic field may we suppose that we will create an unbalanced in the angular disc moment producing a propulsion without mass variation...
The usage of radio waves to communications is not the best option in a solar system due to pollution in the same spectrum of waves. Advanced communications probably will use something like quantum tunneling. How far we are to use it?
I think that our planet is a incredible evolutionary...
In a solar system there is atmosphere between planets. It is very weak with low density if we compare with planet's atmosphere but may have almost the same quantity of hidrogen, helium and oxigen if we consider the long distance between them. The light from star will be affected by such...
I think that we need to consider the following:
Is there any possibility to have a close planet with a kind life in the same technology level than us?
In the distance that we have such planet is it possible with our technology level detect any radio signal?
If the technology level is below us...

This is the issue using optical point of view transit will be better but we can't forget that in some cases magnetosphere is many times greater than the planet. Another point the intensity of starlight is the biggest challenging when observing small planets transit. But in case of magnetosphere...
See: This is a question about how can we detect or see the magnetosphere of an planet. The mentioned research is only to show that may have some alternatives. But the question remains, what kind of interference the magnetoshere of planets can cause in the light from a star?
For example the...
I think that following research may give some directions.

But this is in a controlled environment.
How to apply it in a heterogeneous environment is the big question.
If we can build an polarized image. Who knows if an...
Following the same way to detect a black hole via gravitational lens. Is it possible? Use the same methodology to detect exoplanet via its magnetic field and the distortion caused in the light of Star?
Can we find a phase or polarization change in part of a light from a star caused by an...
As I mentioned before this is not the common sense. A person that already discovered some exoplanets is analysing how can apply some of this methods.
The idea will be how to "increase" the size of planet or how to reduce the bright of star.
We already have technology to produce diferencial...
"I think that there are numerous professional physicists that have given a LOT of thought to finding exoplanets and I find it fairly unlikely that you or I will come up with something that has not occurred to them and been explored to the extent possible if it shows any promise."
I think that...
When I watched the story about the difficulties to find an object around other stars I started to think in alterinatives that could exist to make the object larger.
The presented alternatives will reduce the amount of objects that can be found but can help to find more easy some planets...
