The Northwest Passage consists of a series of very deep channels that wind through Canada's Arctic Islands. The Northwest Passage is about 900 miles (1450 km) long. Using the passage instead of the Panama Canal can cut thousands of miles off of a sea journey between Europe and Asia.Unfortunately, the Northwest Passage is about 500 miles (800 km) north of the Arctic Circle and is covered by ice sheets and icebergs much of the time.Some speculate, however, that if global warming continues the Northwest Passage might be a viable transportation route for ships.he Northwest Passage is about 900 miles (1450 km) long.

Proceeding at three quarters impulse. I should reach it in approximately three minutes.' That is approximately 12,400,000 miles per hour or 5,543 kilometers per second. Â¼ impulse for the shuttle could be estimated at 1,852 km/s. The 'Star Trek Voyager Technical Manual' page 13 has full impulse listed as Â¼ of the speed of light which is 167,000,000 mph or 74,770 km/s. Â¼ impulse for Voyager would be 18,665 km/s. Voyager's Â¼ impulse is 10 times faster than the shuttle's. Therefore, the term Â¼ impulse isn't a fixed speed as much as it's Â¼ of the full speed of the impulse engines' maximum.
