| (...) You're right, though I read Jonathan's point as being that I didn't account for relativistic effects in the energy calculation, which is true. If I have the math right, the crossover point where the relativistic energy exceeds the rest mass (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) I'm not sure on the physics, but we can assume either to be interchangeable; the ship impacting a motionless particle at .9c, or a particle at .9c impacting the ship. Kinetic energy is derived from mass and velocity. So it is, in effect, a (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
