1 million miles an hour is so fast, the speed of light is still 671 times faster.
So you're saying it's relatively slow?
Yes. Still relatively fast though too.
It is pretty wild how so much mass could be accelerated to that speed.
The idea that a 3 body system could cause it is really cool. Probably not useful to us, but still very cool
I'm getting mass just thinking about it.
Did Fukitech release a 3 body system!?
Dammit, I just got the 2!
