the vehicle as time slows down for you as you move very fast.

If you can move just below light speed then a journey of 1000 light years
distance will take very, very little time for the people traveling at such
speed. The only inconvenience being that over 1000 years time will have
passed from the relatively stationary starting position.

So long as you can accelerate fast enough and reach a near-light speed;
you can go anywhere in the universe within any time (say an hour).
The price to pay is that your relatively static start point will have had
many, may years pass in your high speed hour.


Ed: I don't mean this as an argument for the existance of alien UFOs.

Letum, I thought it was impossible to actually reach the speed of light? If I remember correctly, Einstein put in his law of relativity that you can reach 99% the speed of light but to reach the speed of light the amount of energy required to do so would infinately increase the closer you got to the speed of light... thus making it impossible to go that fast. Hence why people have been theorizing about wormholes and warp drive where you bend space around you instead of travelling through it conventially. From what you wrote I get the impression you can actually go faster than light... am I barking up the wrong pulsar or something here?
