Warp Speed Calculator 1.0

The Dashboard in Mac OS X provides a great way to get quick access to small but useful tools during everyday computer use. The best part is that theyre so easy to create: theyre basically just tiny web pages with a bit of extra scripting thrown in!

Have you ever wondered how long it would really take the Enterprise to travel from Earth to Vulcan at warp 5? Or how far the Defiant could possibly get at warp 9 in just five days? What about figuring out how fast Voyagers maximum speed (Warp 9.975) is in multiples of the speed of light?

The Warp Speed Calculator is created to answer these questions. Simply input two of three variables (speed, distance, and time), and the widget will calculate the third for you. It will even convert equivalent units, like years to days, light-years to parsecs, or warp factors to multiples of c. And you, too, can sound like a Treknology expert!
