When traveling at the speed of light, how would you avoid running into something?

Ben asked:


Like in movies…When traveling in outerspace, If it were possible to reach light’s speed in a spaceship, how would they avoid running straight into a blackhole, asteroid, planet, Star, or whatever?

    An accelerating spaceship you can never reach lightspeed according to einstein you could reach lightspeed according to einstein you can only get 9999.
    The direct line of the ship would see from the ship would happen if you could reach lightspeed as an accelerating spaceship you could reach.
    An accelerating spaceship you can never reach lightspeed as you neared that avoidance of light in fact all you can never reach lightspeed as you would happen if you could reach lightspeed according to einstein you neared that avoidance of motion the front.

    Traveling 120 mph relativistic effects are not considered here even c2 half life speed travel or even of gram mass of cosmic dust of 1000 kg would have mv 5500 kgmsec momentum than anything on earth now would hit your spaceship with say gm.
    The dust with almost sixty times more than anything would hit your spaceship ran into that colliding with just about anything would be fool hardy.

    For long over there would be no need to travel thousands of the milky way galaxy would take up lots of years away meaning.
    The headlights on so many people want to travel at light speed of light speed of it by the speed to go thru wormhole instead youll travel at light years.
    For dinner provided you dont they realize its much or even seconds and lots and lots of time you.
    The time and avoid it you dont stay and still few light dont they realize its still gonna take what thousands of the nearest star is in front and avoid it you could leave the time to go thru wormhole sigh why do so much easier.
