Well that is about 21.25 light years per hour. So a trip to: Alpha Centauri would take about 10 minutes plus acceleration and deceleration time. What is the 0 to a million time? Wolf 359 would be under a half hour. The rings on this image are about 15 minute jumps. ![]() |

Winning after a 220km trip and bringing back a wagon load of timber and other necessities to get my new bed finished as well as spirit supplies. :-) Cheers. |

Not quite what I was thinking. 1.0855605174e+14 knots I was going for a small hop. Say 8 1/2 minutes to our sun. I found a speed conversion app saw “knots” and how many is light speed. So I used a small round down number 186282 not 186000. Robert Heinlein uses 186282.397 miles per second for light speed. ![]() ![]() |

Happy Thor's day Wiggo.I'll let you know how I go Betreger as I've got 2 projects to get into today. The first being finishing cleaning and clearing out the brewroom for a re-tiling job while the 2nd is doing something about all that timber that I brought home yesterday to finish my new bed. I'm just waiting for some beer bottles and the dish washing to drain a little before I clear the sink area and remove the remaining loose tiles before I scrape the old tile paste out, hopefully it'll be warm enough downstairs by then to do something about those sheets of plywood and pine planks that are in the way downstairs ATM which by then it should be warm enough at the front of the shed (in the sun) to clean up the back of these. I reckon that by the time I've got that done I'll be wanting a beer (or 4) by then. ;-) Cheers. |

I'm not winning today as this old tile paste is taking longer to remove than thought. :-( But I did get a few beers in. ;-) Cheers. |
