How does the communication between the ship(s), earth, and other ships work? Is there communication?
This relates to the discussion on [Faster Than Light Travel (FTL)?]
- I remember some interview with an old SF writer about the time of the first Apollo landing. He was commenting that all the SF stories of a first lunar landing assumed that the people on earth would not know if it was a success until the ship returned. There he was watching a TV picture of the first step. So I assume that the ship will be in communication with earth for the entire trip. We have already decide that there would be no FTL communication. -- Main.DaveK - 25 Jun 2004
