2/100
Here is a fun alternative history story. What if Einstein's life was cut short and his theory of relativity was ignored?
In this future quantum mechanics is the basis of all physics. Now see what happens to a mission, headed to a nearby star, as it accelerates closer and closer to light speed.
I've always had trouble getting my head around the effects of speed on space-time, known as time dilation, and these poor souls must struggle with it too.
It was not what I expected for a re-imagining of The Cold Equations but it was very satisfying in that ignoring the laws of physics can have a very serious outcome.
