Statistics and other numbers
- Speed of light = 299,792 km/s
- Solar wind speed = about 450 km/s
- 1 gravity is equal to 9.80665 m/s2
L2L1DYC
- Speed using only solar wind, L1 to L2, would take about 7 days
- Distance from Earth to L1 = 1.5 million km (5 light seconds)
- Distance from Earth to L2 = 1.5 million km (5 light seconds)
- Speed at which switch to Push 10000 km = 20 minutes
- Remaining = 1,490,000 + 1,500,000 km @
- Equation for the time (in seconds) needs to travel the 1.49 million km + 1.5 million km from L1 to L2 (sqrt(2 * 99.097 * ((1.49+1.5) * 1000000) + 250 ** 2) - 250) / 99.097 = 243.142 seconds
- Equation to travel from either L1 or L2 to Earth: (sqrt(2 * 99.097 * (1.49 * 1000000) + 250 ** 2) - 250) / 99.097 = 170.907 seconds
- 4.5 gravities would be 44.129925 m/s2. This means the 4.5 km launch track at Jarvis Island Spaceport is traveled in about 102 seconds.
- Time to get from Earth to L2 is about 13 days with acceleration and deceleration.
