  • The current human speed record is shared equally by the trio of astronauts who flew Nasa's Apollo 10 mission. On their way back from a lap around the Moon in 1969, the astronauts' capsule hit a peak of 24,790mph (39,897km/h) relative to planet Earth. But this video does include all spacecraft and spaceships from TV series, Movies, Games, and NASA, which means all real and fictional spaceships.

      Also Battlestar Galactica does not have a measured velocity recorded anywhere. It uses a fold drive system that joins 2 sections of space briefly in Planck time and the ship simply "appears" in another region of space.
      It's velocity is actually only limited by it's navigational systems. The Cylons navigation tech is FAR better and they can jump much faster, farther, and with incredible accuracy.
      In fact a Cylon Base Star's FTL is so advanced, it can jump from Caprica, to even Earth, and jump nose to nose within meters of an enemy Battlestar.

Navigators steer the course, thread it, etc. using prescient abilities - a 'linear prescience', a focus on the safe path prior to engaging the Holtzman engines to move.

The Roswell crash had imparted the government with a great deal of alien tech, and only in modern times had any of it been really made use of. They couldn't get the interstellar drive to work, but they did accidentally make a time machine out of it. Instead of moving the ship faster than light, their drive moved it backward through time at a rate equal to that of its travel through space (roughly). So, it would seem to outside observers as if the thing had practically teleported, and since it traveled close to the speed of light in normal space otherwise, time dilation would make the trip feel instantaneous to the occupants, as well.

In a way this is good because it means most people are unit-bilingual in the UK. Metric is used in law, but imperial measurements are more common in day-to-day and informal conversation. E.g. petrol is sold by the litre, but we then talk about how many mpg the vehicle does. Describing someone's height or weight people only use metric if metric is required for it (e.g. plugging it into a BMI calculator) and I've never heard someone ask for half a litre of beer. The weirdest one I think is that when buying meat at a butcher the price will usually be per kg but people order in lbs.

      OK! Let's try to figure this out. He doesn't have a problem with the system That's fine. Then, anyone can easily realize that if you are using different systems you have to make a conversion. This chap in the video seems to use m/second instead km/second.
      1- What this has anything to do with handling the metric system?
      2- What this has anything to do with being an American?
      So, in his defense, you say that his complain is more about the conversion mistake than the system itself.
      However, my take on his complaint is rather his focus on the origins of the video uploader than the system itself. If, the uploader would have been a britishit, and if he knew that the uploader was a Britihist, he simply would have sucked up and ate his urge to expose a mistake and even more he would have not even imagine mocking the uploader. And, this would be absolutely true, ESPECIALLY, if, he himself is an arrogant and ignorant biritishit to his bone marrow.
      if he said that, "the uploader (without mentioning the name American) seem like can;t handle the conversion between imperial and metric systems." That would have been far less arrogant and far less offensive.
      So, yes, his problem is with Americans not with the systems, however, his reflection on that problem is via the difference between the systems. Hence my response.
      FYI; 6.68 km/s = 14943 mph. If he could have the proper ethics to digest the knowledge he had, instead of being an asshole about it, he could have posted a comment saying that all the m/s units should be replaced with km/s, by respectfully informing the uploader about this at the same time.
      Also, just notice that the uploader is not using the m/s notation for meter per second, but he is using it for MILES PER SECOND and it is given at the top of the video.
      6.68 Miles per second = 24048 miles per hour.

      "Star Wars" folklore uses "sublight" with a different meaning than we use it. It refers to the "subspace", so a sublight engine would work in subspace. The idea is that, if the space is "sub", then travelling in it is always "super", or something like that. It's completely made up, so, who knows what the writers really meant.
