Fighter jets don't add velocity to projectiles they have fired, just like a space vehicle shouldn't travel with the added velocity of spacial bodies such as the sun: 200 kilometers per second. Feel free to discuss

If it gets added to the projectiles velocity we could achieve great speeds for space travel firing multiple stages of vehicles in deep space adding each previous vehicles speed to the next

Re: If a space probe had a canon and the probe travels faster than the velocity the canon projectile can achieve what happens to projectile velocity
Velocity of the probe + velocity of the projectile fired from the gun = muzzle velocity relative to a fixed point in space. Relative to the probe itself, there would be no detectable increase in muzzle velocity.

It's all relative to the place velocity is being measured from.

If the weapon was fired out the back of the craft, the projectile would appear from the fixed point in space to be following the craft at an ever increasing distance.

Essentially that's what the multiple stage rocket is. Stage I boosts the rocket to a certain velocity. Stage II is fired off that initial velocity and adds more. If there is a further third stage, it happens again.

This would be a very easy experiment for any country with a space program. Fire a projectile containing telemetry sensors and a transceiver from a probe and monitor the speed and velocity of the probe and projectile from a satellite. This could be done with very small craft given the extent of miniaturization and technology we have today. Something akin to firing an iPhone out of a toaster sized probe. Easy peazy

If so, not disputing you, we should be constructing multiple staged vehicles at the ISS to travel through space at greater speeds

I'm not sure of the exact answer, but I think it has something to do with the Jews.

the probe is traveling faster than the projectile can travel

Probe speed: 17000 miles per hour

bullet speed (projectile) : 3000 feet per second

So the prone tile would not leave the probes cannon barrel???

If we fired jews out of the cannon, we could also factor in the loss of mass of the probe when the jew exits the ship, resulting in still greater increase in velocity due to force being applied to a reduced mass. Not to mention how much fun it might be to do that.

We should start testing on that propulsion system immediately. No matter how many jews it takes, we'll find a way to make it work.

You could be in charge of finger painting poop swastikas on the probes of your obviously Iranian / Antartic Nazi space programs probes. Cyborg Hitler will be pleased

Relativity explained this like 60+ years ago.

You should have paid more attention since you can't answer a basic question: does the projectile leave the barrel or not? Or are you just to fuckin stupid to answer the question? Go ahead answer it, now prove to everyone how intelligent you are. It either leaves the barrel or doesn't.
