Erik Wernquist - Short Film: "Go Incredibly Fast"

GO INCREDIBLY FAST is a short film that I made for the Limitless Space Institute in Texas.

The film is about the immense distances between stars and the long durations we would have to endure in order to traverse them, even if utilizing methods of propulsion at the very limits of scientific knowledge. Ultimately, it comes down to our understanding of physics and the fundamental laws that govern the Universe.

If we ever want to travel to stellar destinations beyond our solar system, within the limits of a human lifetime - we will need to find ways to go incredibly fast.

THE LIMITLESS SPACE INSTITUTE does physics research with focus on advanced propulsion and the ultimate vision of advancing human exploration beyond our solar system.

This short film was made to raise awareness of their work and inspire people to join them in their mission. The official upload of the film was made to YouTube, and can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RiJFo-kaJBQ&t=41s
