Then, in 2030 the velocity has doubled again to 8v. It leaves Earth and arrives in 5 years, 2035 - five years before the first spacecraft which will not arrive until 2040!

The above scenario assumes that the maximum velocity of spacecraft will double every ten years. Yet, even this 'modest' increase in speed results in very interesting outcomes for the occupants of each craft.
It begs the question, why should the first spacecraft go at all?
But, if the first craft doesn't go, then the second craft becomes the 'first' craft and is in exactly the same situation as the original 'first' craft!
Naturally, I'm assuming that all of these spacecrafts travel at well below light-speed, otherwise time dilation effects kick in - which is never good....
Oh well, Mike.
