    Also “in a vacuum” would be assumed, since almost the entire universe is a vacuum.

      Except all the gases and dust. What we know as space vacuum is not empty. Go to a great void for real vacuum.

      Wait, maybe C would be 300’000 km/s there?

      i’ve just figured out how the religious universe ends. some physicist explains to their god that a lot of their assumptions were based on something being in a vacuum, and then their god says “what vacuum? you mean all that sparse hydrogen?” so the physicist says “let’s find out what happens when you have a real vacuum” and then the universe ends at the speed of dumbassery.
