User blog:DonkeyKongApe/Star Fox Zero Calc-Faster than Lylat

I recommend listening to some good old Star Fox music while reading this.

Basically, team Star Fox goes from the Space Graveyard straight to Corneria. Expecting some good faster than light results.

Timeframe
The events of Star Fox Zero all take place in one day.

Evidence 1: Even on the 7th level and just 3 levels away from finishing the game (iirc), Fox states "this day just keeps getting better" implying that everything up until now has still just been in one day.

Evidence 2: At the beginning of the game, Star Fox goes through Corneria to do the usual and shoot some dudes, and it's daytime and after sunrise for reasons I'll explain later. And then, at the end of the game, when they return to Corneria its' sunset.

Evidence 1 kinda helps but the second piece of evidence is where it's at.

We know Corneria 1 is after sunrise because Corneria 2 takes place during the sunset and we see the sun setting over the mountains, but in Corneria 2 there is no sun rising over the mountains. The sun is at its peak and no longer rises at 12 pm. Sunset begins at around 7 pm because it is after the evening.

Let's say every mission takes 10 minutes for low end, 30 minutes for mid end, and 45 minutes for high end.

Distance
Going to use the distance between Mercury and Neptune which is 4,443,090,000 km

Calc
By the time Star Fox flies to Corneria from the Space Graveyard, he has gone through 8 levels.

Low end: 80 minutes, Star Fox takes 5 hours and 40 minutes

Mid end: 4 hours, Star Fox takes 3 hours

High end: 5.25 hours, Star Fox takes 1 hour and 45 minutes

Using omni for this

Result
Low end: 217798529 m/s, 0.73 c (Relativistic+)

Mid end: 411397222 m/s, 1.37 c (FTL)

High end:705252381 m/s, 2.35 c (FTL)
