So you won't have an infinite supply of fuel once you reach light speed—it will just be infinitely difficult to move.<br /><br />However, you might be interested in the concept of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_energy" rel="nofollow">vacuum energy</a>. If it's true, then according to Richard Feynman (who received a Nobel prize for physics), there is enough energy in the vacuum of a single light bulb to boil all the oceans of the Earth.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16078111620881411579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102881319036313364.post-71826951903840396422010-12-07T09:33:33.084-08:002010-12-07T09:33:33.084-08:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16078111620881411579noreply@blogger.com
