for 800nm to 400nm, we need gamma=2. So v~.86c. At 20m this gives you ~80ns.

    For perspective, this speed is:

    • 928 157 450 kilometers per hour
    • 576 730 301 miles per hour

    In one second, you would travel around:

    • 258 000 kilometers
    • 160 000 miles

    Which is around 6.43 times around the Earth's equator.
