In a word, energy. Any object that\u2019s moving has energy due to its motion. Physicists call this kinetic energy. To go faster, you need to increase kinetic energy. The problem is that it takes a lot of <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.omnicalculator.com\/physics\/relativistic-ke\">kinetic energy<\/a> to increase speed. To make something go twice as fast takes four times the energy. Making something go three times as fast requires nine times the energy, and so on.<\/p>\n<p>For example, to get a teenager who weighs 110 pounds (50 kilograms) to 1% of the speed of light would cost 200 trillion Joules (a measurement of energy).
