Andy Supra Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 It's only 120,893,256,000,000 miles away! How many fuels stops is that in the Supra? and how big will this telescope be to see that? guessing it's more advances than my digi camera's x5 optical zoom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted April 25, 2007 Author Share Posted April 25, 2007 How many fuels stops is that in the Supra? Assuming 300 miles on a tank : 402977520000 which at £50 a stop would cost £20,148,876,000,000 Of course you'd need to factor in some kind of inflationary price increase over the years it would take between fills. It would be much less due to no air friction slowing it down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilli Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 A tad pricey then, I think some sort of gravitational slingshot might be needed, even if you were using an NA! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 A tad pricey then, I think some sort of gravitational slingshot might be needed, even if you were using an NA! I would imagine the superior reliability of the NA will become an improtant factor as you would actually get there without a turbo failure!! H.
