The only drag effect in space is gravity as far as im aware i think the theory is that if you push someone of a space ship while the space ship is moving at full speed and then turn around and try to rescue that person you would never catch them because there moving as fast as you can go so they would always stay the same distance ahead i saw it on futurama when bender meet god. LMAO

NASA TV via Internet, choose your player:-
http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/ I am hoping to see NASA TV via FTA satellite one day on a small Ku sat dish. You can now on C Band, but thios required a dish 3.0-4.0m+!! Awaiting real estate agents and loopies to 'claim' ownership and sell land:-)

IQ of 138, i have done that on before i think, unless they are all the same, i dont really know how reliable it is. Im currently studying Aeronautical Engineering so maybe its true? We wont ever travel at the speed of light, massless particles can, we cant. But good find, i agree with what people have said about the whole why do we believe that everything must exist like us statements.

There is no drag in space. There is no air to provide any resistance to an object, hence drag. Vacuum. An object has no weight in a vacuum. Therefore the only energy required to be expended is to get the vehicle a) escape from the gavitational field it is being launched from and b) acceleration. Once the required speed has been met, outside of a gravitational field, then no more energy is required for speed to remain constant.
The only other energy requirement would be for a change of direction, such as a directional thruster of some kind which would be fired in the exact opposite direction to the desired direction of travel, just for a short burst. So once you leave Earth, are in space, and do not particularly want to change direction and do not pass too close to any other large objects with gravity, you will not need any energy to get to your destination... unless you want to speed up of course. Hope that makes sense.
