I do the relativistic math behind Project Hail Mary — time dilation, mass ratios, coast phases, and the relativsitic rocket equation with astrophage. How long would it take to reach Alpha Centauri, Tau Ceti, Betelgeuse, Andromeda, and the edge of the observable universe under constant 1.5G acceleration? We also look at Andy Weir's mass ratio mistake, the astrophage infection range problem, and visualize the spread using the AT-HYG stellar catalog. Includes a interactive relativistic travel calculator on my website.
