The Speed of Light is Ridiculously Slow YouTube

How many times faster than light would we need to travel to reach the universe's most incredible destinations? From TON 618, Phoenix A*, IC 1101, the Andromeda Galaxy and Sagittarius A* to Betelgeuse, Proxima Centauri, Stephenson 2-18, the Pleiades, and the edge of the observable universe, we explore just how huge the cosmos truly is.

If even light speed is too slow, are we trapped in our own cosmic backyard?

Travel alongside a commercial airliner, the International Space Station (ISS), Voyager 1, the Parker Solar Probe, and eventually far beyond the speed of light as we journey across the Solar System, the Milky Way, distant galaxies, supermassive black holes, quasars, and the largest known structures in the observable universe.

Featured destinations include:

Moon, Sun, Mars, Saturn, Pluto, Proxima Centauri, the Pleiades, Betelgeuse, Stephenson 2-18, Sagittarius A*, Edge of the Milky Way, the Andromeda Galaxy, the Sombrero Galaxy, IC 1101, Phoenix A*, TON 618, and the Edge of the Observable Universe.

This video is a visualization and scale comparison intended for entertainment purposes. It intentionally ignores the effects of relativity, time dilation, acceleration limits, and other constraints of modern physics in order to compare cosmic distances using fixed travel times.

The universe is so vast that even light speed can feel incredibly slow.
