Holy mackerel, that’s from New York city to Los Angeles in less than 2 seconds. One one thousand - Two one thous - we’re here. Freakin’ insane speed.

I looked up the distance to the moon....238,900 miles. So 1,500 mps you would get there in 159.6 second or 2.64 minutes lol lol About the length of a standard pop song. That’s incredible.

Still downright pokey compared to light speed.
