| Aug 2, 2023 at 14:48 | comment | added | Frans | Thank you for your answer, this is already very helpful. Probably a stupid question, but where does 1/sqrt(3) come from? Edit: it's probably just short for 1.15 * (1-0.5*1) isn't it? Could you tell me what the 'x' stands for in the event frame? That part is still unclear, does that mean the ship (S') traveled x units before it saw the asteroid being struck? | |
