	The thing about space travel is it uses big distances and to understand the distances we need to think in closure vector at X Km/Sec. The body cannot withstand the huge [[G]] forces that would make ~~space flight~~ convenient. If you want to close 1000 [[Kilometer\|km]] difference you first need to accelerate then decelerate. This often leads to curving approaches. The only way to deal with this is to allow time for the acceleration.
