So as we all know, by our current understanding of physics, it is impossible to accelerate to the speed of light, which is a complete and utter disappointment to science fiction fans all across the globe. But as I was watching Star Wars the other night, watching the Millennium Falcon go into hyperspace and the stars going into star lines and then a strange blue and black mottling, I began to wonder just what going past the speed of light would look like. After all, we'd be going faster than the light reflecting off any object we'd see.
Imagine then a spacecraft that can exceed the speed of light, for some strange law of physics that still eludes us, and that our ship is crafted such that it and its occupants are protected by the immense g-forces caused by such an acceleration. What would we see if we looked out the cockpit?
