' Wrote:It still has ghosts and souls in it, in a universe that never dealt with that sort of thing, for various good reasons.
Darkmatter still exists in our dimensions, otherwise it wouldn't really affect our universe. So in reality, it's part of our universe and our dimensions.
The underworld itself you claim to not be a physical thing. Therefore it cannot be made of Darkmatter, which is a physical thing.
This essentially leaves the existence of such a thing up for debate, which the community is very entitled to decide upon.
You are also proposing that a soul is made of darkmatter, which defies scientific measurements (Simply weigh someone, then weigh their body parts individually, usually once they die).
Your proposal also says that each person, with their soul, dying causes it to increase the amount of darkmatter. This means that the non-darkmatter mass of the universe will slowly run out till there is only darkmatter. No mass or energy can be destroyed or created remember, only transfered from one form to another.
Which again doesn't entirely make sense.
This is a good piece of roleplay by a character ingame maybe but it isn't how I, nor others, view the Discovery universe and I doubt it will ever become accepted as canon.
I think Linkus your statement is full of half truths, as it seems your suggesting for sure dark matter does not constitute what supernatural beings are made up of. But you see the contradiction is in fact in the name itself "Dark Matter" its Dark we humans pursay dont know what its made of or whats its properties are. So to say ghosts cant be made of dark matter is hypocritical, so it should not be taken to literally as its seems you are doing. Nothing like this in disco would be canon your right! But the very fact, that ghost encounters in sirius would be rare would lead to the existence of ghosts becoming rumor although we they would always be there. The Dark Matter connection is just to give the ghost ships a more scientific credibility for existing in sirius.
Besides what I have written in terms of dark matter maybe a little inaccurate but this is sci fi after all, the whole of disco is based on sci fi ideas. For e.g. we fly ships based on technology which does not exist in in RL right now! My Point being my justification for ghosts existing as elements of dark matter, is a piece of sci fi just like everything else in disco. To refute it is to refute Freelancer IMO.:sleep:
