Getting from A to B in Space requires a certain amount of time that depends on velocity

The faster i move, the less time i need to get from A to B

What if i could do the opposite? What if i could accelerate Time? What if i wouldn't move faster, but time accelerates faster? I wouldn't break any law but i could still reach interstellar travel

Quantum jumping in space, you notice some societies never understood how to travel faster than light. And hibernation or "torpor" pods designed to slow human metabolism are wrong to use.
>>
You would need an imaginary speed.

How can you move from point A to point B if in order to do so you would have to pass the midpoint but in order to do that you would have to pass the midpoint of the midpoint. The midpoints can be subdivided infinitely. How can you go from A to B if there is an infinite amount of midpoints that you would have to cross.

when you accelerate time you experience it faster, you mongoloid. time dilation from relativistic speed is the exact opposite, you experience less time as you move, for example, one year, but to everybody else you've still traveled for ten years. by accelerating time you'd get to where you're going a lot slower, but you'd get a hell of a lot more done if your one minute was actually one day

if this doesn't make sense to you blow me

By passing the midpoints in an infinitely small amount of time

>The midpoints can be subdivided infinitely.
not actually true in reality, only mathematics.
>>
>>16973502
But if you can't measure time without motion and if motion is impossible due to the infinite midpoint problem, wouldn't you need to solve that problem before you can even prove that time exist?
>>

>there is an infinite amount of midpoints that you would have to cross.
Proof?
>>
>>16973748
Wouldn't the space between two points have to have a midpoint, including the space between the starting point and the midpoint?
>>
>>16973744
But motion is obviously possible. That means space is discrete of object are able to cross a infinite amount of space points in a finite time. Both of these options are mathematically well defined
>>
>>16973773
That doesn't explain why I need to unlock an infinite bucket list of achivements based on those mid points to move, only that you could read as many imaginary events into my path as you care to read.
>>
>>16973783
I think your confusing logic for imagaination. Is what I said not logical?
>>
>>16973797
I think you're confusing your lack of basic reading comprehension for wit.
>>
>>16973367
reminds me of a game I play X3: Reunion. space travel is kind of slow, but you can buy this device for your ship that speeds up time. so from your perception it looks and feels like you're flying fast, but you're really just going the same speed.
