Under relativity, it needs to fare ยท9965c.  You need a graser
spring-string drive yesteryore:

 (Sadly, Calculator is bug-riddlen and the temperatures in that article
are off.)  Over relativity, it doesn't much matter what the ship is
made of if you have a silicate-ion van Allen shield.   Grab some cheap
housingstuffs and shape them into a Krasnikov tube.

Causality be damnate.  It matters not that an effect leads its cause
any more than playing a recording backwards then forwards again does.
