He would use his intangibility to protect people from the use of his power.Including becoming and remaining intangibly out of phase and safe from harm.įrom Flash 109, one of the earliest uses of his molecular intangibility. The faster he goes, the more he behaves like a beam of electromagnetic energy. Why?īecause he is becoming more like light and less like matter. As he approaches the speed of light, under normal physics, objects grow heavier as they approach the speed of light. While the Speed Force supposedly protects the environment from him, what protects him from the environment? Imagine what happens when he approaches 1% the speed of light (6,706,166.29 miles per hour, 111,769.43 miles per second or the ability to circle the globe several times in a single second). 600 miles per hour becomes 1 mile per second!) At slower speeds his prioperception (personal awareness of his physical body in relationship to his surroundings) he can pay attention to his environment and dodge things he approaches, but once he moves at high mach speeds or low percentages of the speed of light, being intangible is the safest approach. Why the speed of sound? In atmosphere, the Flash's speed soon becomes problematic as distances diminish through the use of his fantastic speeds (i.e. This power becomes active when he starts moving faster than the speed of sound. One of the Flash's powers allows him to become intangible to matter and able to ignore his environment. I can make a case for a Flash capable of utilizing the Speed Force, being able to survive in the vacuum of space. (Don't ask why Jeff Loeb thought they should be able to TALK or hear in the vacuum of space.)
This is the previous DCU's Wally West discovering he is outside on the surface of the moon.Portrayals of the Flash have rarely shown him to be able to survive in the vacuum of space.
