speed of light

speed of light published on No Comments on speed of light

well, this is definitely the nerdiest comic i’ve ever done. sorry to everyone who’s just here for the cute drawings.

this is a really counterintuitive concept, because “travelling through time” is the exact opposite of what it is in a time travel movie. if you travel quickly trough time, you actually get to the future slower (from your perspective).

if you want to “time travel” to the future, you need to move slowly through time (by moving really fast through space, like neutrinos) so that everything else ages much faster than you.

yeah i know it’s confusing. blame einstein, not me.

fun fact: if you lie around in your room all day, you’ve technically moved further than someone who ran a marathon from east to west in the same time, relative to the centre of the earth.

unfortunately, fitness apps don’t seem to understand this for some strange reason.

one more character checked off the “who is ___?” comic list.

i sure hope sedna’s dad has a really good car insurance policy.

hurray! a considerably less ridiculously time-consuming illustration than the last one. i bet people will like it more than that one anyway because clouds are pretty and life is unfair. :(

apparently i have a thing for painstakingly drawing all the stars 100% accurately and then covering half of them with clouds anyway. but it’s the thought that counts, right guys?

(this comic contains an easter egg that tells you when i drew it. i wonder if anyone will notice.)

we did it mates! 100 comics! that’s almost 0.006% of the number of peanuts strips! thanks everyone for supporting my now three-digit-long space comic strip series. hopefully i’ll manage to stay alive and not amputate my right hand for long enough to bring you at least 900 more.

unfortunately i have to start updating sedna only 2 times/week from now on (tue + sat), as 3 isn’t a sustainable pace for me except maybe as a full-time job, and the only reason i’ve managed it so far was due to my massive buffer. but i’m sure you’ll all forgive me.

…you will, right? O_O;

who is ako?

i love drawing ako. she’s about 50 million times easier to draw than actual mars rovers (no offense percy, but you’re just so stupidly complicated).

hey, does anyone else feel an unbearable urge to go watch wall-e for some reason, or just me…?

if the movie cast away taught me anything, it’s that you can totally have a non-living character who’s entire personality is projected on them by someone else. so i’m making it a personal challenge to get at least one person to decide ako is their favourite character, without ever bringing her to life.

that and to eventually make toy akos. i really want a toy ako.
