Yes, but what if we place a limit of 20g's on the acceleration? Can you still do your random walk? Will 20g's allow you to see the heat-death of the universe? At 06:27 AM 2/2/2014, Goucher wrote:
Also, Goucher's brownian motion solution is technically wrong in the sense brownian motion has infinite path length
Yes, it does, but you can cover that in finite *proper* time. Admittedly the heat-death of the universe would have occurred in that amount of time, but you would still be alive.
so even if you travel at C and do not mind infinite acceleration, you'll still never get anywhere.
Only from the perspective of a static observer. From your perspective, you'll cover the universe in finite time.
