Oops.
Bouncy finger!
isnt it great how a topic based on a motorway convoy branches off into a discussion about lobbing a bottle of pish out the window of a spaceship in the blinking of an eye? 
If you are traveling at Light Speed and threw a ■■■■ filled bottle surely that’s superluminal speed

I’m just impressed we got to six pages without mentioning drivers wages, Eastern Europeans, sat navs or fridges!
So if we are traveling in our spacetruck at the speed of light.
What happens when you turn your headlights on?
why would you have headlights traveling the same speed as light

Durr,
Coz it’s dark in space.
the irish space program are building a big rocket probe thingy to shoot into space to land on the sun. they are fitting it with headlights because to combat the heat damage they are timing it to land at night when they reckon itl be cooler and they will need to see where its going

Ahh ! The golden oldie time. And why not.
As an emergency escape the crew will be issued with parachutes, but because funding is short theyll have to be old second hand ones. Theyve been instructed to wait until they`re 10 feet off the ground before pulling the ripcord in case it fails. Sure, anyone can survive a 10 foot drop.

but how fast is it travelling,if your already travelling flat out before you lob it out the window.Given that an objects mass increases as you approach the speed of light, it would be very difficult applying enough energy for it to accelerate away from you.
Plus you have the effects of relativity, where are you measuring the objects velocity from?Look, I don’t know, ok. I tried. I really did. But I’m on my way to Doncaster for a ■■■■■■■■■■■■■. Priorities and all that.
Who says its mass increases as it approaches the speed of light?
Its inertia increases, its momentum increases but not its mass.
A 15 gramme bullet fired at you from a catapult will not have the same effect as when its fired from a rifle so does its mass increase because it comes out the barrel of a gun?
No its momentum increases due to F= MA (Newtonian physics)
book me in for one of them showers while your there pal.

Yes the nasholes are sending one next year in winter when the suns “cold”
19 billion dollars a mere drop in the ocean.

im afraid you have been misinformed there my man…theyre being issued with the new prototype ones that open on impact…

You couldn’t throw it out the window at the speed of light as your reactions would be slower than the speed you was traveling at. However if you were traveling at the speed of light on a night time in the dark and you switched on your headlights, would you be able to see?

And still no bloody nukes!!!
Jesus how long does this ■■■■■■■■ take ?
Been months now?

So when it slows down where does this mass turn back into energy?
Everyone moved on a week ago.
Let it go. No one cares anymore

i erd it was based on a scani with light bar and air horns,and peekaboo curtains to stop the sun blinding em on re entry
