Regrub just said can we make it go faster, so i guess it would need to be increased much much more than 17,000 kph, which seems slow for galactic/cosmic speeds.

Wonder how much more energy it would need.

Someone get Randal Monroe on this stat!

I think you'd need to nearly double the velocity for it to be remotely close. I think I saw something like 30-40k km/h before it's at that level
