[QUOTE]Originally posted by Guardian 2000: [QB] [b]If warp 9 is 1,516 times the speed of light, oh so fast!, but it would still take 1.2 days to travel to the nearest star![/b] That's a problem I have with most Trek maps, in that folks often compromise real cartography in lieu of of adherence to Tech Manual speeds. While it's true that warp moves the ships at the Speed of Plot, the preponderance of evidence points to warp speeds being far faster than the TM ever suggested. For instance, direct statements of speed [URL=http://st-v-sw.net/STSWcompare.html#FTL]suggest 9.9 is in the 21,500c range[/URL], and of course Enterprise [URL=http://www.st-v-sw.net/archive/TA-ENT1chrono.html]requires that warp five be somewhere in TNG warp nine range[/URL]. Other times speeds seem greater or smaller, but the above seems to me to approximate a "best fit", pending a more thorough analysis that I'm not afraid to say I'm dreading. Just an observation. Go on about your business. [/QB][/QUOTE]
