I am curious how difficult would be to obtain light speed with a constant acceleration of 1g.
At a constant acceleration of 32.2 ft/ sec (1g), artificial gravity would be created for the humans traveling inner stellar space. According to my calculations (which could be wrong) it would only take 355 days to reach 186,000 miles per sec (light speed).
I would think that decelerating at this rate (from light speed) would also cause artificial gravity on the opposite side of the ship. The nearest star can be reached in less than 6 years, and the human would be healthy.
Is this idea possible considering there in nothing in space to inhibit acceleration?
