Or do you have to accelerate all the way to do that
That's what "1G" means in this concept, you're always accelerating at 1G (9.8 m/sec^2)
On the first half of the trip you're accelerating toward the destination, on the second half, you're decelerating at 1G.

- AnimalMuppet 5y agoThe graphic in that article is what I wanted. My point was that, due to the highly non-linear time cost, it takes much less time to travel from Earth to X if you accelerate the whole way, rather than accelerate half the way and decelerate the other half. I wanted to know which way gorgoiler used to compute the subjective time. And, thanks to your link, now I know.
