Constant

A constant was an unchanging object or thing with respect to some other value, or a well-defined number. Various constants could be distinguished between mathematical constants or universal constants.

In 1986, time traveler Spock from 2286 was met with a problem. In order to return to the exact moment at which they left the 23rd century, Spock used their journey back through time as a reference and calculated the coefficient of elapsed time in relation to the acceleration curve, but acceleration was no longer a constant.
