They took 5 frames to cover that distance, so thats roughly 220m/s for the blaster bolts.
Any chance of getting that in US units...? I don't have a conversion table with me, and I don't remember off the top of my head how many feet are in a meter.
That's easie! Just calculate the length of your thumb and divide it by the amount of meters. Add the average size of a cow's intestine and multiply it by the amount of time it takes to drop a yardstick from a ship. That'll give you the equivalent in Imperial units.
oh, be quiet.
