Speed Notes

Human running: 28 mph
Horse: 50 mph
Racecar: 240 mph
Jet: 1000 mph
Space Shuttle: 17,000 mph
New Horizons Probe (Pluto): 52,000 mph

@ 100 mph
30 hours across US
14 weeks to Moon
3100 years to Neptune

Nothing faster than light
186,000 mps (670,000,000 mph)
1 second, 75 times across US

Sun 8 minutes to Earth
Years to nearest star
6 trillion miles = lightyear
Light through space takes time
4.7 billion years ago Earth formed

Solar sail = photons
Magneto Plasma Rocket = superheated plasma channeled by magnets, maximize thrust

Space & Time
Spacetime 4th Dimensional fabric
Latitude, Longitude, Height, Time
Speed of Light constant
Relative movement
Speed = distance / time
Experiencing time differently, still or moving
Special relativity
Time would slow down on closer to speed of light
Time x Time = distance (GPS) triangulation
Clock on satellite needs to be offset
Time moves slower in space
Lightspeed slows aging

Speed of light - time stops
Gravity - mass
Curves spacetime
Bent towards a heavy mass
So dense tear spacetime - black holes
Earth mass into inch across
Stars - Supernova - Black Hole
Event Horizon - Speed of Light overcome by Gravity
Center of every Galaxy

Wormhole - shortcut, distance
Portals through space and time
4th dimensional travel
Presence does not conflict science
Rip space apart

Warp Drive - moving space
Expand space behind you, compress space ahead
Altering reality, theoretically possible

WCWWFX Page 1: Why Did You Join WCWWFX?

A row of panels around one larger panel of the whole team sitting at the breakfast table. Each surrounding panel should have one team member featured with dialogue showing their personality.

Main panel
Death's Eye has his eye focused on RazaBlade's legs as she stabs some bits of fruit from out of a bowl as she sits with her legs crossed on the counter, eyes closed and looking slutty. OverCrypt looks over to his right kind of awkwardly staring at RazaBlade. TeknoGore is spooning cereal onto his faceplate, as he watches OverCrypt spoon cereal into his mouth, which falls out the bottom of his jawbone. OC is checking outStrongArm looks bashful, his body tucked in itself, shoulders down, arms inward, looking awkardly at the other side of the panel where BloodClaw slices up oranches.

TEXT BOX: WHY DID YOU JOIN WCWWFX?

Death's Eye: I mean...her legs...my god.
RazaBlade: I just wanted to kill someone.
OverCrypt: If I must walk the earth in this demonic form...
TeknoGore: TEK-NO-GORE!
BloodClaw: I needed the money.
StrongArm: Have you seen BloodClaw? Hello? O-M-F'n-G!
