Yeah, can’t have that pesky air resistance slow you down. In…space.
Edit: Okay, now I’m actually super curious at what speed this would come into effect. I know space isn’t 100% vaccuum, so there is some point where this would become a necessary factor to consider. However, it must be at truly insane speeds, no?
Unless you go really fast, then an aerodynamic shape becomes super important again

Space is full of particles, and if you want to travel relativistic speeds, they’re a problem.
