    If you fired a paintball into space at the maximum allowed gameplay velocity:

    You left the Earth at 300 Foot(Feet) per Second
    or less than 0.01% the speed of light.


    Earth's Moon
    1.61 months

    The planet Mars
    27.2 years

    The planet Saturn
    443 years

    The planet Pluto
    2000 years

    Closest star to the Sun
    (Proxima Centauri)
    14 million years

    Center of our Milky Way Galaxy
    98.3 billion years

    Closest large spiral galaxy
    (Andromeda)
    8190 billion years

    Coma Cluster of galaxies
    1.11 million billion years

    Edge of the observable Universe
    49.1 million billion years

    There's no 'I' in 'team'. But then there's no 'I' in 'useless smug colleague', either.
    And there's four in 'platitude-quoting idiot'. Go figure.

    LMAO at this

    You left the Earth at 0.0000001 Foot(Feet) per Hour (or... at snail pace)
    or less than 0.01% the speed of light.
    Destination Estimated Time of Arrival :

    Earth's Moon 1430 billion years

    The planet Mars 293000 billion years

    The planet Saturn 4.79 million billion years

    The planet Pluto 21.6 million billion years

    Closest star to the Sun

    (Proxima Centauri) 152 billion billion years

    Center of our Milky Way Galaxy 1.06 million billion billion years

    Closest large spiral galaxy

    (Andromeda) 88.4 million billion billion years

    Coma Cluster of galaxies 12 billion billion billion years

    Edge of the observable Universe 530 billion billion billion years

    so... im wondering what it would take if you go at like 0.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
    00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
    00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
    00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001 milimeteres per hour...

    Well, if their is any other life form in space other than us, it wouldnt matter because we wont ever be able to reach them or even see them.

    Think about it.

    Edge of the observable Universe 14.9 billion years and thats if we are traveling at the speed of light. (300000 Kilometer(s) per Second)

    So, if we were lookiing at the Edge of the observable Universe, its what it looked like 14.9 billion years ago.

    If their are aliens looking this way, they would be like "oh look its the birth of a planet" since they will be looking at what happened 14.9 billion years ago.
