Without Einstein
Series
How
do Einstein’s
discoveries both constrain
and enable space travel and time travel?

Time
and fuel required for one-way trips to nearest planet, unknown planet
2000 light-years away, and lastly a no-stops exploration with no return.

Time
travel to the future is easy, if you can afford the fuel costs.

Shortcuts
through wormholes are “pipe” dreams that rely on fanciful “negative
energy.”

Everything moves through spacetime at the speed of
light. The faster something moves through space, the slower it moves
through time.
