Gravity and Gas Pressure on an Accelerating Object

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the implications of mass and gas pressure when an object approaches the speed of light. It questions whether an accelerating object can repel mass-attracting particles to reduce its effective mass and fuel consumption. Additionally, it explores the concept of gas pressure in the universe and how it might change as velocity increases, potentially necessitating further acceleration. The thread was ultimately closed due to confusion over the original post's clarity and grammar issues. Clear and concise communication is essential for productive discussions on complex topics like these.

I know talking about faster than light speed travel is taboo on forums like this but the questions I have are these:

Particle with Mass

When an object travels faster and faster towards the speed of light and particles with mass are attracted to the object at a faster rate because of the velocity of the object and the area of space that the object is occupying and the mass of the object increases because of the attraction between the particles with mass and the object itself is it possible to repel some of the particles with mass that would add the most mass to the object thus causing it too use less fuel due to the decreased amount of mass that the engine must burn through?

Gas Pressure

I read in article, link provided if necessary, that the gas pressure of the Universe is almost zero. When traveling faster and faster towards the speed of light would the gas pressure upon an object increase volumetrically, I think that's the word, to create a gas pressure that would increase the need to increase the velocity of the ship and is it possible to repel the gas particles?

Could you...maybe edit your grammar to make your post readable? That first sentence is one long long long run on sentence, and I have no idea what you're asking.
 
I'm sorry, but since multiple people (including several moderators and a science advisor) are having trouble even understanding what you are asking, I'm going to close this thread. Please try to form a clear, concise question and use better grammar if possible.
 
TL;DR Summary: In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation. In case of failure to detect alien signals, it will further expand the radius of the so-called silence (or rather, radio silence) of the Universe. Is there any sense in this or is blissful ignorance better? In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation.

Thread 'Could gamma-ray bursts have an intragalactic origin?'
This is indirectly evidenced by a map of the distribution of gamma-ray bursts in the night sky, made in the form of an elongated globe. And also the weakening of gamma radiation by the disk and the center of the Milky Way, which leads to anisotropy in the possibilities of observing gamma-ray bursts. My line of reasoning is as follows: 1. Gamma radiation should be absorbed to some extent by dust and other components of the interstellar medium. As a result, with an extragalactic origin, fewer...
This thread is dedicated to the beauty and awesomeness of our Universe. If you feel like it, please share video clips and photos (or nice animations) of space and objects in space in this thread. Your posts, clips and photos may by all means include scientific information; that does not make it less beautiful to me (n.b. the posts must of course comply with the PF guidelines, i.e. regarding science, only mainstream science is allowed, fringe/pseudoscience is not allowed). n.b. I start this...
