How much faster than the speed of light are we going here
- DesiLurker 4y agocoolworlds did a video on constant 1G acceleration travel : https://youtu.be/b_TkFhj9mgk https://youtu.be/b_TkFhj9mgk bottomline, you get progressively closer to speed of light and time slows for you so you can cover larger and larger distance in local frame. problem is finding this 1G drive.
- tsimionescu 4y agoNot at all. But those 13 years are from the perspective of the people on the ship (also, from. Their perspective, the distance they travel is much much smaller).
