question asking for an impossible solution to add on problem

ALright, as soon as I get my cable connection, I have a really huge addon to post to the motherload.

However, I would like to add a few tweaks, and since i will have at least a few weeks before cable can get thier digital fiber out this far to serve the high dollar subdivisions south of me here in the sticks, i thought i would ask this, since i havent seen any thing that suggests someone has done this.

Okay, here is what I would like to do:

Set models of starships in orbital trajectories from various star systems to other star systems at a velocity equal to at least 10c.

as i said, i do believe this is most likely impossible in celestia, but i thought i would try.

I guess its possible in Celestia 1.4.0 if both star systems orbit the same barycenter,otherwise it would have to be done by xyz files and many different model definitions (depending on how many systems you wish the ship to cross)with the xyz positions hopefully matching up for all the stages in between.Not a trivial task at all.Good luck Jestr
