star wars night light image

I am going for 3 nights and 4 days so i was wondering if 165 dollars was enough. Last time i went that is about how much i spent. But i am older and not sure. Would that be enough? Just for spending money. Food and everything is paid for, so that isn't an issue. Thank you! I am also not planning to buy a whole lot. Just some star wars shirts, a light saber, key chains, and rapunzel and flynn plush dolls. That is the plan any way!
Answer
That should be plenty if it's just for souvenirs. The kinds of things you seem to want aren't that expensive.

Can anyone explain how spaceships in popular science fiction might work?
Q. Ships like the Millennium Falcon from Star Wars or the Enterprise from Star Trek are mainstays in science fiction. However, I haven't been able to find anything about how these ships might work that is specific. Can anyone explain to me how these types of ships might work and what technology might be needed to create one?
Answer
I saw a Universe show on History Channel just the other night about making faster space ships.
Theories only:
Folding space to make the ship "seem to travel" a long distance. Like a wormhole between star systems. Problem is how to survive the gravity field in a black hole, how to connect two of them to make a wormhole, and how to make it stable over time.
Make space fold like accordian in front of ship, and expand behind. This would be a "warp drive" that makes a seperate space-time existence surrounding just the ship. This may be possible on a quantum level with sub-atomic particles, but no one is sure.
Make a "Stargate" of two identical space-time bubbles, and transport one of them to another planet or star. Since the space-time is identical in the twin bubbles, one can step into the near one, and emerge from the far one instantly. Conversely, if you make two that are at first light-years apart, and transport one at light speed until it's next to the other, you can step from one into the other, which would be time travel. Very confusing.
Anti-matter drive would supply enough energy to travel at almost the speed of light between planets in a few hours, or between star systems in a few years instead of centuries. We can make anti-matter in a giant accelerator now, but only a few hundred atoms at a time. Making enough to power a spaceship would bankrupt our country.
Space ramjet would compress hydrogen gas molecules from between planets and stars with giant magnetic scoops in front, and a fusion power plant to heat them for thrust out the back. This technology is a long way in the future, but we have the theory now. Problem is how to protect crew from radiation.
Laser beams push sailing spaceships. Projectors on the Moon powered by fusion or solar panels would beam intense light to miles-wide sails to get astronauts to other planets in a few months. Not for star trips.
Sleeper ships with suspended animation chambers to let the crew sleep for centuries on star voyages. We can almost do that now. But what would happen to a crew taking hundreds of years to arrive, and finding everyone had beat them there by using one of the above technologies?
Entire societies in a giant ship hollowed out of an asteroid could travel for hundreds or thousands of years across the galaxy. But who among the descendants would remember what to do at destination?
