@@vyor8837 As an object with mass approach the speed limit, the enery needed to make it move faster approach infinity (because of the mass increase), so Jeb experienced beyond infinit energy I think it's just a misunderstanding about what we were exactly talking about ^^ He was talking of the energy needed to make Jeb reach thatt speed

*mad martin noises*

[@Restreamable]

If you theoretically applied downforce via thrusters and two thrusters on the side to keep it straight you could technically achieve a much higher speed so the craft at 12:34 was stable since the thrusters in the middle were acting like a gyro therefore it did not spin out,some crafts use this technique in space such as nasas moon exploration vehicle and their EVA SAFER suits,sorry for the long comment
