  • $\begingroup$ It isn't obvious to me that that would be a problem. Aberration and other effects would only be considerable at extreme speeds. In the "rest frame" of the rest of the universe, that traveler's acceleration to c would take infinite time. In the traveler's frame as he reaches c, there is no longer matter in front of him accelerating him passed speed c because space is infinitely contracted. But realistically he would likely get obliterates by the blue-shifted radiation facing him. $\endgroup$
