Vega is relatively close at 25 light years. At one tenth of the speed of light, it would still take 250 years to reach it from our solar system.

How long would it take by spaceship to reach the vega star?

That depends on how fast your spaceship can travel, and what kind of a route you follow.Spacecraft never travel in straight lines. But if you could do that, and if you kicked it up to,let's say, a million miles an hour, then you'd pass the moon in 14 minutes (it took the Apollomissions 3 days), and you'd be at Vega in only 16,970 years !


How would the presence of a spaceship moving past us at a speed close to the speed of light impact our understanding of space travel and exploration?

If a spaceship were to travel close to the speed of light as it passed by us, it would challenge our current understanding of space travel and exploration. The effects of time dilation and length contraction at such high speeds would need to be considered, potentially leading to new insights and advancements in our ability to explore the universe.


Where would you end up if you could travel faster than light?

If you could travel faster than light, then you could also travel to the past. This is related to the definition of simultaneity, in the Special Theory of Relativity.If you could travel faster than light, then you could also travel to the past.

How much energy does it take a spaceship to travel at constant speed 90 percent of light speed?

The energy required for a spaceship to travel at 90 percent of the speed of light would be substantial due to the relativistic increase in kinetic energy as speed approaches the speed of light. The energy required can be calculated using Einstein's mass-energy equivalence formula, E=mc^2. The exact amount of energy would depend on the mass of the spaceship and would be calculated as the difference in energy between its rest mass and its kinetic energy at that speed.


Is man can not be growth by going in a spaceship and it is going with a velocity of light is it real or not?

The part about the spaceship going with the speed of light is not real. I don't understand the earlier part of the question.


Can a human run light speed?

Light speed is over one billion kilometers per hour. Not only can a human not run that fast, no spaceship can ever travel that fast, at least according to the laws of physics as we currently understand them.


What is realistic fiction way to travel at the speed of light?

You could try becoming a ray of light.


If I go very fast in a spaceship why am i younger than the ones left behind when I return?

because you have to go faster than the speed of light to travel in space and since light is the fastest thing in the universe, you are technically going back in time


Could cats travel at the speed of light or would they destroy it?

The answer is neither.


What thing go fast?

a spaceship. Or the light. I think that is the fastest thing.


If two spaceships leave the earth in opposite directions at three fourths the speed of light earth relative and one ship attempts to send a laser beacon to the other ship will the beacon ever be seen?

No, the laser beam would never reach the other spaceship because the speed of light is constant and finite. As the two spaceships are moving away from each other at speeds close to the speed of light, the distance between them would be increasing faster than the laser beam could travel.


How many time a beam of light can travel around the world in one second?

Light could travel seven and a half times around the world in one second.
