Forward or backward are the fastest options with today’s technology. If you have stuff like nuclear pulse propulsion and need to get rid of a few thousand nuclear weapons you can ignore the Sun’s gravity and choose a more direct approach.Fred Bobo said:Why go forward?
Small, and even smaller if you don’t want to accelerate away from the Sun. A pure aluminium foil from a kitchen provides an acceleration of 15 m/s per day under ideal conditions. Without payload or any material to keep it expanded, without steering and so on. By the time the solar sail gets going the chemical rocket is at its destination.Meanwhile, back at the ranch: what can be the acceleration generation from a solar sail? Size related to payload. Over what period?

Earth 180 is a location on Earth that is 180 degrees longitude from the Prime Meridian, which passes through Greenwich, England.
The fastest route to Earth 180 would depend on your starting location. However, generally speaking, the most direct route would be to travel along the equator until you reach the opposite side of the globe.
The duration of travel to Earth 180 would depend on the mode of transportation and the starting location. For example, a flight from New York City to Earth 180 would take approximately 14-16 hours.
No, it is not possible to drive to Earth 180 as it is located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. However, you can reach nearby countries like Russia, Japan, and Australia by car and then take a boat or plane to Earth 180.
No, Earth 180 is located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and does not have any permanent human settlements or landmarks. It is mostly uninhabited and only accessible by boat or plane.
