Thanks for the correction. That means we can cross the galaxy in 65 years.
The kids better behave or I’ll leave them at a rest stop on Orion.
With a properly outfitted ship it might be kind of cool to spend your life flying out as far as you can get. I wouldn't count on finding a habitable planet though. Not based on today's data. Might not be too long before our intel is better though.
Nope, still wrong; at a width of 110,000 light-years, traversal of the Milky Way would take only 11 years traveling at a speed of 10,000 times that of light.
See here.
Yes, I dropped a decimal point and divided by 1k instead of 10k. I also used 65k light years for the diameter of our galaxy.
Here’s anothher half-stick.
