Thanks for the help, the relativistic rocket is a really helpful article. I'm still trying to figure out which exact equation describes the distance as a function of acceleration and time.

I understand classical acceleration equations, my question is how far the spaceship would be taking into account time dilation, length contraction, ext...

I've been stuck on this physics problem for several years now. I would be very grateful if someone could explain how to solve this problem. The farthest a human could travel from Earth in one lifetime theoretically is limited only by the acceleration a human can withstand, and the length of...
