Comment Comment by santiagobasulto Yes. Time dilation (with respect of the stationary observed) is calculated using the Lorentz factor.At 99.999% of C, the Lorentz factor is ~223.6.It grows pretty quickly as you add more 9s to the fraction. Every two additional 9s multiply the Lorentz factor by ~10.So at 0.99999999999 c, it'd be ~223,607x.2.5M years / 223,607 is: ~11 yearsOf course this is all highly theoretical.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorentz_factor parent santiagobasulto 1 month ago
