quello che gg non sa sui monopoli

  • In the turn-based strategy game Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri, monopole magnets are one of the researchable technologies. Once a player has developed this technology, that player is able to upgrade roads to magnetic tubes. Units moving along a magnetic tube are able to do so "instantly"-- i.e., the movement does not count against the number of moves the unit may be moved each turn.
  • In Larry Niven's Known Space monopoles are used by both slower than light interstellar spaceships as well as interplanetary crafts. They are found and harvested in asteroid belts by belters.
  • In the Anime Outlaw Star Gene Starwind uses a magnetic monopole to escape from the prison colony of Hecatonchires.
  • In the video game Star Control II, magnetic monopoles are a valuable exotic material found on some planets.
