Reply to comment by [deleted] in Did you know it will still take 46 billion years to cross the universe at the speed of light? 65 mph = 4.8 * 10^17 years! by NotAndroid545

  • T^(trav)= t*(1-v^(2)/c^(2))^(1/2) where:
    t = time observed in the other reference frame
    T^(trav) = time in travelers own frame of reference
    v = the speed of the moving object
    c = the speed of light in a vacuum

observer (t) sees 1 000 000 years go past. Traveler's velocity (v) = c. So:
T^(trav) = 1000000*(1-c^(2)/c^(2))^(1/2)
T^(trav)=1000000*(1-1)^(1/2)
T^(trav)=1000000*(0)^(1/2)
T^(trav)=0
Time experienced by traveler traveling at c = 0 years.
