Edit: Notice the option to travel at lightspeed.... this isn't quite as exciting as you might think.
- lovecg 6y agoExcept if you could really approach lightspeed the distances would approach zero, so there’s that.
- arethuza 6y agoTime dilation as well, which probably helps ;-)
- marshmallow_12 6y agowow. you get a lot more respect for gravity after seeing that. basically, in empty space, i could exert an influence on a bottlecap 10,000 miles away. or something like that, the numbers are entirely irrelevant.
