The speed of the spaceship varied: - There was no specific value for the speed of the spaceship in the game. - In reality, the Shenzhou 18 spacecraft could descend at a speed of 1 m/s. The spacecraft needed at least 7.8 km/s to maintain its orbit in space without being pulled to the ground by the Earth's gravity. The fastest spacecraft known to mankind was the United States 'Juno Jupiter probe, which flew at a speed of 73.6 km/s. Theoretically, the photon spacecraft could approach the speed of light.(The speed of light is 300,000 kilometers per second) If the speed of the spacecraft reaches 99.999999 percent of the speed of light, it can fly at a speed close to light.

The speed of the spaceship varied according to the type of spaceship, mission requirements, and other factors. For example, the speed of a spacecraft orbiting the Earth was generally between 7.9 - 11.2km/s; the speed of a spacecraft flying to the Moon, Mars, or other planets in the solar system was between 11.2km/s - 16.7km/s; the speed of a spacecraft flying out of the solar system was greater than 16.7km/s; the United States 'Juno Jupiter probe could reach a speed of 73.6km/s, which was the current maximum speed of human travel in space.

The precise value of the speed of light was 299,792.458 km/s. If the spaceship reached the speed of light, its speed would be 299,792.458 km/s. According to Einstein's theory of relativity, objects with mass could not reach the speed of light, because as the speed of the object approached the speed of light, the energy required would tend to be infinite.

The speed of the spaceship varied according to the model and mission. For example, the Apollo moon lander had a maximum speed of 25,000 km/h; the Saturn V rocket had a maximum speed of about 28,000 km/h; the International Space Station's manned spacecraft (For example, the Soyuz, Shenzhou, and SpaceX's Dragon spacecraft) had a maximum speed of about 7,500 to 8,000 km/h;SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket had a maximum speed of about 9,000 km/h; the American Juno Jupiter probe had a speed of 73.6 km/s, and its acceleration speed did not exceed 265,540 km/h when maneuvering around Jupiter. In order to maintain a space orbit and not be pulled to the ground by the Earth's gravity, the spacecraft needed to maintain a flight speed of at least 7.8 km/s, while the speed of light spacecraft was 30km/s.

Different types of spaceships flew at different speeds. Generally, the speed of spacecraft orbiting the Earth was between 7.9 - 11.2km/s, such as Shenzhou 1 - 9, Tiangong, etc.; the speed of spacecraft flying to the Moon, Mars, or other planets in the solar system was between 11.2km/s - 16.7km/s, such as Chang'e 1 and 2, the Mars probe launched by the United States, Apollo 1, etc. Only the speed of spacecraft flying away from the solar system was greater than 16.7km/s. In the sci-fi movie Star Trek, there was a fictional warp speed used for superluminal spacecraft flight. In addition, when the Shenzhou 19 spacecraft was about 400 kilometers above the ground, its flight speed was about 7.68 kilometers per second. The speed of the return capsule before entering the atmosphere was about 7.8 kilometers per second. When there was only one meter left, the reverse thrust engine would reduce the speed of the return capsule to 8 meters per second. The first cosmic speed of the spacecraft leaving the Earth's surface and circling the Earth was 7.9 km/s, the second cosmic speed of the spacecraft leaving the Earth and flying towards the Sun was 11.2 km/s, and the third cosmic speed of the spacecraft leaving the solar system was 16.7 km/s. There was also the so-called light speed spaceship that had a speed of 30km/s. The novel "Hundred Years of Spaceship" is equally exciting. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!
The speed of the universe ship varied according to the mission requirements and type. Normally, the speed of a universe ship was around 28,000 km/h. To leave the Earth's surface, one needed to reach the first cosmic speed of 7.9km/s (about 28440 kilometers per hour); to get rid of the Earth's gravity, one needed to fly at 11.2km/s (about 40320 kilometers per hour); to get rid of the solar system's gravity, one needed to fly at 16.7km/s (about 60120 kilometers per hour). Currently, the fastest spacecraft in the world was the United States 'Juno Jupiter probe, which flew at a speed of 73.6 km/s (about 264960 km/h). Voyager 1, launched in 1977, was 17000 kilometers per hour from Earth 40 years ago. The novel "Hundred Years of Spaceship" is equally exciting. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!
Different spaceships were different kilometers away from Earth. For example, Voyager 1 was about 23.3 - 23.9 billion kilometers away from Earth; the Arctic Dawn spacecraft was 1400.7 kilometers away from Earth; the Cassini spacecraft was about 1.4 billion kilometers away from Earth; and New Vision was 4.8 billion kilometers away from Earth as of September 2019.

Different spaceships had different distances from the ground. For example, Shenzhou 19 was about 400 kilometers above the ground in orbit; The Arctic Dawn spacecraft was 1400.7 kilometers above the Earth in orbit; Shenzhou 14 was about 140 kilometers above the ground after the propulsion module was abandoned after completing its mission; Shenzhou 18 separated from the propulsion module when it was about 145 kilometers above the ground; Shenzhou 17 re-entered the atmosphere about 100 kilometers above the ground and ignited the reverse thrust engine when it was 1 meter above the ground.

If they were to fly in a light-speed spaceship for an hour, they would have to travel a very long distance at this speed since the speed of light was about 300,000 kilometers per second. However, the reference materials did not mention other specific situations that would happen when flying in a light-speed spaceship for an hour, such as comparing the time with Earth or the specific location. It was only known that if a spaceship that could fly at the speed of light could be built, it would only take about a year to travel through the Milky Way. Therefore, based on the available information, it could only be determined that the spacecraft would fly about 1.08 billion kilometers (300,000 x 60 x 60) in an hour.

Currently, there were no actual light speed ships. Although in sci-fi works such as "Three-body: Death Forever", there were settings for light speed spacecraft (such as the Celestial Ring), humans had yet to build a light speed spacecraft in reality. Although Mexican physicists had proposed the Akubierre engine, a mechanism that could theoretically allow spacecraft to fly faster than light speed, and there were related simulation experiments, the experiments showed that there were many risks in this mechanism. For example, there would be particle accumulation and energy release during superluminal flight. It was difficult to achieve a safe landing, which indicated that there was still a big gap from the creation of a light-speed spacecraft. The novel "Hundred Years of Spaceship" is equally exciting.

According to current scientific knowledge, the speed of light in vacuum (about 299792458 m/s) was the maximum speed of natural objects. It was the upper limit of the speed of all matter movement and information transmission in the universe. It was also the speed of massless particles and the corresponding field fluctuations in vacuum. Theoretically speaking, there were many limitations for objects with mass to reach the speed of light. For example, according to the acceleration transformation in the special theory of relativity, when the spacecraft flew at a constant acceleration, the constant acceleration measured by the spacecraft itself was not constant in the eyes of the Earth observer. Instead, the acceleration gradually decreased as the spacecraft's speed increased. In other words, the closer the spacecraft's speed was to the speed of light, the closer the acceleration measured by the Earth observer was to zero. Therefore, the spacecraft would never reach the speed of light in the eyes of the Earth observer. The current level of human technology was still far from being able to create a spaceship that could reach the speed of light. The novel "Hundred Years of Spaceship" is equally exciting.
