EXTRA-TERRESTRIAL CRAFT COMPONENTS - AN OVERVIEW
I'm not going to pretend I know what most of this means. I'm just to repeat it as the messenger.
Metallurgy
The most commonly used metal in extra-terrestrial craft construction is HYDROGEN metal. It originates naturally on some planets but not on earth. Like Superman on Earth, HYDROGEN metal is for all practical purposes indestructible. It is very light in weight. Due to its incredible strength, it can be very thin.
The second most common metal is Titanium Alloys. The metals used for the alloys are available in limited quantities on Earth and are referred to as rare Earth elements.
Power Source
The most common power source from most extra-terrestrial civilizations is an antimatter system. The antimatter is contained in a dual envelop electromagnetic sphere. The sphere is created by multiple redundancy, self-healing components.
The size of the containment spheres range from 3 inches to 12 inches in multiples of 3. There are none larger than 12 inches in diameter allowed in this solar system.
Power is produced by injecting a Hydrogen atom stripped of the electron. It passes through electromagnetic membrane one which seals behind it as it enters membrane two, hence the dual envelop electromagnetic sphere. The reaction is controlled by a precise calculation of antimatter quantity to Hydrogen nucleus quantity formula.
The anti-matter power source is enclosed in a detachable module on the bottom of the craft. If the redundancy system fails, the craft automatically does whatever maneuver is necessary to eject the module away from structures. There is a secondary power source of stored energy that can sustain the vehicle until help arrives.
Shielding
All extra-terrestrial craft use shielding when in operation. The shielding for most civilizations is a dis-harmonic system meaning that all energy striking the shield that is not the shield's frequency makes the shield stronger. The shield is programmed to rapidly and randomly cycle through various frequencies unlikely to be encountered naturally. This reduces weapon effectiveness against the shields.
Also, just moving through the Earth atmosphere makes the shields stronger due to the dis-harmonic frequencies encountered. This is why moving extra-terrestrial vehicles have different color displays at various times. The brighter the apparent light source, the more powerful the shield.
