As a Kerbal Space Program player, the phrase “timewarp” means making time pass much faster for the people inside a vessel, so interplanetary distances aren’t so bad. The rest of the world would still experience months passing from Earth (Kerbin) to Mars (Duna), but the Kerbals inside the ship take a few minutes.
Neat. I don’t know why, but there’s something about the term “Space Normal” that feels way cooler than “Sublight.”
@Greg, well they were still using the term “time warp factor” and such early on. “Space normal” as opposed to “space / time warp”, I would suppose.
(And now “Time Warp” is stuck in my head… dammit…)
