Frictionless Surfaces Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri

Frictionless Surfaces SMAC

Frictionless Surfaces is a Discover technology 10 in Firaxis' TBS Game of 1999, Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri (SMAC).

• Frictionless Surfaces unlocked by: Unified Field Theory, Industrial Nanorobotics
• Frictionless Surfaces unlocks Technologies: Quantum Power
• Frictionless Surfaces unlocks Unit Advances: Cloaking Device

Discovery of the Unified Field Theory (D10) allowed scientists to alter the fundamental properties of matter itself. The discovery of Frictionless Surfaces proves the most useful application of these techniques. As the name implies, Frictionless Surfaces consist of materials that remain unaffected by friction, a force that slows down motion by changing kinetic energy into heat energy. Moving objects made of these materials do not slow down as they come into contact with other matter.
