Huh? You can’t go faster than light speed, and the observable universe is way larger than ~100 light years.

Time experienced will be slowed down for the person in spaceship as you near lightspeed

This is using the fact that at 1g acceleration, one will quickly approach the speed of light relative to its starting rest frame and time dilation will give the astronaut a _very long_ life relative to that frame.

		The closer to lightspeed you get the more shit you would collide with. I think you would reach an equilibrium speed where drag balances thrust?

		Ahh fair enough. Guess I wasn’t measuring the length of the observable universe in the frame of the astronaut…
