How would faster-than-light travel appear through window of a space vessel? All the movies and TV shows like Star Trek and Star Wars seem unrealistic:
- Star Trek credits: passing stars get bigger and nearly "brush the top of your head", but wouldn't it look more like a flat 2D animation with dots simply rearranging?
- Star warsWars hyperdrive: stars appear as perfect line segments that point exactly away from the center during the "whoosh", but doesn't the sky change constellation shapes based on your vantage point, making the lines more irregular?
- Wouldn't the oddness of time and length transformation cause severe warping of light entering the window of your vessel, eg, I recall seeing a physics talk about seeing the back of an object before you passed it.
Has anyone assembled a realistic video of FLTFTL travel through the window of a ship?
