Current technology is based upon this design with some refinements. The ship generates a gravitational distortion that causes electromagnetic radiation to curve halfway around the ship before escaping. In discussion of the extended theorem it is necessary for us to use an example ship with the modelling of the mechanics involved. In discussing cloaking technology it is necessary to discuss gravitational theorem in general. It is possible, however, to create an artificial distortion and hence artificial gravity.
Light always travels in straight lines.
This phenomenon is most visible in the accretion discs of black holes, where light can be made to orbit a black hole, just above the event horizon. It is obvious, then, that by bending space around a spacecraft, the light can also be made to bend, and by this method the vessel can be made to vanish. The Federation has had gravity generators on board most craft since slightly before contact with the Vulcans. Generation of gravitons is possible by rapidly oscillating a superconductor generating an electromagnetic wave across a dielectric, creating a virtual mass. This will distort spacetime as is required.
