In Portal, using the portal gun to get to the moon is the obvious space travel usage, but I think people are overlooking how it’d let you trivially break the rocket equation.
Hell, you could build a >1g torchship using nothing but the ocean.

I seem to recall Jupiter is the reason we only have planet destroying asteroids every half a billion years or so…
@StompyRobot@mastodon.gamedev.place @cstross@wandering.shop planet destroying asteroids are the kind of thing that only civilizations without relativistic impactors have to worry about.
@foone@digipres.club @cstross@wandering.shop good point!
