Accelerate greatly

[edit]

"Accelerate greatly in any direct" is not a good description of the way that inertialess objects behaved in the 'Lensman' stories. They instantaneously achieved terminal velocity (for the force they were subject to and the medium they were in). And an instantaneous change of velicity means that acceleratiion is undefined, not 'great'.

I have edited the text accordingly. Agemegos 04:08, 9 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Restoration

[edit]

This article was deleted without sufficient consensus; I've restored it. —FlashSheridan (talk) 19:31, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merge this article with Inertialess_drive

[edit]

Shouldn't this article be merged with the more complete one on Inertialess Drives? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.99.217.0 (talk) 07:37, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes; this was formally proposed in May 2014, and given objections over almost another 3 years, I've merged all referenced, of which there is none (despite being tagged as unreferenced for 8 years). Klbrain (talk) 18:02, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Velocity

[edit]

The 100,000 parsecs per hour mentioned as the top speed in intergalactic space would equal about 2.86 billion times the speed of light. AMCKen (talk) 23:36, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
