That moment when a cartoon character drops some serious Einstein relativity wisdom! 🚀
The first panel is totally correct - accelerating anything with mass to light speed would require infinite energy (thanks, Einstein's relativity equations!). But then comes that brilliant second panel with the relativistic mic drop: "But the fuel system is at rest relative to the rocket."
This is basically the sci-fi writer's loophole! If your fuel is carried WITH you, it doesn't experience the same relativistic effects from its own perspective. It's like bringing your own physics along for the ride! Space travel hack: UNLOCKED! ✨
