But in all the later series [of StarTrek] warp 10 was defined as infinite speed which was impossible to achieve.
Actually, when the effects of relativity are taken into account, the speed of light is infinite speed, and warp speed is time travel. At light speed, time slows to zero and space in the direction of motion contracts to zero. This means that from the viewpoint of those on a ship moving at the velocity of light, there is no trip. In effect, they simply leave their departure point and find themselves instantly at their destination. But then, StarTrek science was never intended to be accurate; it was meant to be fun.
Actually I liked the first tessellated fractal better but thats just me.
They are both pretty much the same. I simply got annoyed that I had posted the wrong parameter file. Jim M.
