Traveling between the stars, even at "relativis-tic" or near-light speeds, was a long-drawn-out process at best.

Argo had brought them here at near-light speeds, gulping down plasma with her magnetic scoops.

In some stories he is shown travelling through space at near-light speed or to other planets.

She can run at near-light speeds, vibrate through solid matter, and even time travel and cross dimensions by altering her molecular vibrational frequencies.

The higher machine intelligences could well have come up with it, if only by running through permutations of concepts at the near-light speed of their data processing.

He feeds a single electron into the tube, accelerates it to the near-light speed, and it comes roaring out in a gush as thick as your arm.

Now, above the apex of each pyramid, in orbit there hovered a rapidly spinning ring of crystallized neutronium pseudomatter, rotating at near-light speed.

These could be altered, raised and lowered, to change the cross section and therefore the performance characteristic of the Phoenix Exultant at near-light speed.

Firstly, to learn what has happened to the Geshels' long-sundered brethren (who took their portion of Axis City down the Way at relativistic near-light speed).

However, given that the player has only a few hours to save Eris, extended periods at near-light speed are unwise.
