That won’t be an issue. Relativistic mass increase is something that observers see in the fast things going by, not something that affects them personally.

Most sci-fi very fast travel involves means other than actually going very fast. Warp I think is bending space to reduce distance, hyperdrive always seemed like worm hole generation, etc.

Who wanted this question asked? It’s a question that could be answered with a google search, or simply by thinking about what speed is.

Unlike most other studios*, Disney doesn’t have outside firms evaluate their films. They do it all in-house. Their internal team knows how bad a film is before it is released and have a pretty good idea if it is going to do well because of or despite the quality.

“But if the worst-case scenario does happen and Davis just walks away for nothing in 18 months, the Pelicans won’t have won anything.”

Don’t know about blowing up half the house, but all you have to do is mix chlorine bleach and ammonia to generate chlorine gas, and that can kill you without blowing anything up.

What was expected was one of the biggest contracts in baseball history, so let’s look at the comps for that and see if he is full of shit, or if those have been bad deals for the teams.

Money may be up, but attendance is down. More popular with the older crowd, less popular with the young, which indicates the attendance will continue to decline in the future.
