Pardon? And what law of physics is that? A speed limit? A speed
limit out in space, where there is so little matter about that
friction does not become a problem. What holds back the speed of
an object out there, pray tell? Wind resistance? The inability of
the wheels to turn that fast, else the lubrication will start on
fire and cause a wheel lock? Pistons going through the roof of
the planets when the engaged motor pumps that fast? Flow of the
fuel from a pump going at its maximum rate limiting the
combustion in the motor? What factors limit the speed of an
object in space? What experience do YOU have with any of these
matters? NASA putting their little probes up there with such a
finite amount of fuel that they haggle for hours whenever the
need arises to use a tiny puff of it?
Get real! Think! Or at least return with something akin to an
argument to support your silly statement!
