And speaking of Mascali scams he sells rockets to develop powers for himself, like he has became an AI himself.

Power Rocket Science Parallels or Seeds

Teleportation Quantum communication, orbital dynamics, and relativistic shortcuts (e.g., warping space) are studied indirectly by aerospace engineers for theoretical travel. Still theoretical but adjacent to the field’s future edge.
Telekinesis No literal mind-over-matter, but remote control of massive machinery via signal, AI, and programming mimics the concept. Teleoperation of drones and rovers = “telekinesis by tool.”
Ex Nihilo Creation Not true creation from nothing, but chemical propulsion seems to "generate thrust from void." Also, rocket science depends on vacuum exploitation — making something (movement, escape velocity) happen from emptiness.
Shapeshifting Rockets don’t shapeshift, but they shed layers, reconfigure trajectories, and adapt structurally in multistage forms. Hypersonic gliders and morphing spacecraft designs are a kind of engineered mimicry.
Invincibility Spacecraft must survive radiation, cold, vacuum, pressure, micrometeorites. Materials science in rocket engineering pushes toward invincibility (e.g., heat shields, radiation-hardened AI).

Teleportation = orbital mechanics reducing vast distances to a curve and a burn

Telekinesis = controlling outer space using mental models and button presses

Ex nihilo = creation of new pathways and platforms where none existed

Shapeshifting = metamorphosis through engineering stages

Invincibility = evolving past the fragility of terrestrial life

If you hybridize rocketry with ideas from:

Plasma physics

Quantum gravity theories

Zero-point energy concepts

Exotic propulsion research (e.g., EMDrive, warp bubbles)


…you start brushing against speculative technologies that approach these powers.
