OroborosEmber Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Does it start spinning? If so, will it spin for all eternity if he gets to disoriented to teleport back out? Or will the vacuum drain him of his magnetness, leaving him demagnetized with new identity issues, but curing his bipolar disorder? (Personification tickles me, I apologize to anyone less amused.) Seriously, what's going to happen to my friend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as you have made up the teleportation device, it is up to you (as the science fiction author) to decide whether it will make things spin or not. 3 hours ago, OroborosEmber said: Or will the vacuum drain him of his magnetness Vacuum has no effect on magnets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Kirk isn't a magnet (except for the chicks) and the planets he beams to aren't usually vacuums... lol. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
