light speed mission

#41
Didn’t plan this for the official challenge, just my Hail Mary from a month or 2 ago...

Think I used 6 of my then standard Titan Booster/Fuel Cans and a couple hours of idle ion burn, it’s slowed a bit but seems to have stabilized

Considering the program math shouldn’t light speed be 1/2, 1/3 or 1/pi or something of regular speed?

Working on a follow up coming around the sun again, not doing the math but should be several times faster

Reducing the solar system scale doesn't imply reducing light speed. Reducing it would be understandable, but determining by how much could be debated during a long time.
Even like that the light speed would be way too high to be reached without cheats anyway :confused:
