Assuming that at some point in the future of SGU Destiny is going to travel to another galaxy (for discussion of exactly when please see other threads).
When Destiny travels to another galaxy do you think that will give us a better idea of how much Faster Than Light (FTL) Destiny is traveling?
For Example - The Milky Way (our home) and Andromeda (a close neighbor) are roughly 2 million light years apart. That being the case even if Destiny travelled to another galaxy that was really close to the current one, it would likely still be a minimum of 50 light years apart with 150 - 250 being a safer assumption unless told something to indicate otherwise.
All that being said, if we find out it takes 10 days to travel to another galaxy we could assume Destiny travels between 15 and 25 light years per day.
I'm no astronomer or math genius so please help me out and let's see what we could potentially learn about Destiny's speed.
