[QUOTE="Joker, post: 6864529, member: 826"] So from what I gather, when we talk about exotic matter, we're more in the realm of fiction than science. It's strictly a placeholder value to make a formula work? Is that a fair assessment? If we're in the realm of fiction, let's make the assumption that matter with such properties exists. To overcome the problem of a particle that repels instead of attracts (at the same strength, but negative, of normal attraction), could it be possible that said particle has magnetic properties? That during a planet'ss formation it could have attached itself to a ferrimagnetic material? Thus allowing deposits to form on the planet. And I don't possible in the sense of, it's fiction so anything is possible. I mean, is there any rule that says an material with a repelling force can't also be magnetic? I wonder if anyone, as an intellectual exercise, has tried to figure out what such matter would look like. I mean, if you know all the properties of a certain particle, shouldn't it be possible to know what color it has, and how it feels? [/QUOTE]
