E20j/yr is where humanity is at right now
E17j is a 100 mt tsar bomba or so
Fun to find how different scales of energy relate. The wiki version is also fun.

Different orbits let you do different things. Each has a minimum *speed*. Get something going fast enough it’ll keep going for a long time.

You can get most places in solar system just with a good *push*
Much of the work is just to escape Earth’s gravity well. Now we almost have starship with 100 tons offworld. Heres a map of all the places we can go.
