In 2018, NASA will launch "Solar Probe Plus" in an orbit that will swing by close to the sun. It is expected to reach speeds as high as 450,000 mph (0.067 percent the speed of light). At what speed would you (if you were inside the spacecraft ) start to see relativistic effects inside the spacecraft and what would they be? - ie. do transistors and computers continue to work no matter what the speed?
