What happened to Remus when they showed romulus getting destroyed?

The Jellyfish was stated as being "our fastest ship". Why use the fastest ship if a) it would have to go slower to allow others to stay with it or b) refer to it as "fastest ship" if it were simply one of many? We didn't see a fleet of jellyfish anywhere in the movie. It appears that Spock made the journey alone.

And quite possibly against the wishes of politicians and soldiers on both sides of the border. But probably correspondingly with the blessings of other politicians and soldiers from both sides, allies he had gathered during his years of "cowboy diplomacy" straddling that border.

I don't think the risks would have been too big. If Spock got captured, he and his captors and their loot would all be lost to the supernova anyway... A sidestep in spacetime notwithstanding. But the Vulcan Science Academy doesn't believe in those, right?

Even Countdown, with its weird ideas, seems to agree that all Vulcans believed Spock was right about the supernova threat - they just disagreed on whether Vulcan ought to help, or on whether Vulcan would be able to help. Sending Spock would thus guarantee either success or then the eradication of all compromising material and personnel. Win-win all the way.

So you pack enough Red matter to create thousands of black holes into a one man ship and send it into enemy territory. What could go wrong?

You assume that you know the qualities of Red Matter, when you don't. Neither does anyone else. And neither do the people who came up with it. It's a Maguffin, and it's really not that important. So why is everyone arguing about it when there's no answer?

Answer: Because that's what BBS's are for. I know.

i would imagine(because a super nove is a star) that it could not go warp speed(because a star is light and light can't go faster than light).

What about the light inside starships?

That still has to observe the universe's speed limit - relative to the space around it. The whole premise of using a spacewarp for starship travel is that warping space circumvents the speed limit instead of attempting to break it.

(Edit: Oops. I've just seen that timelord1010 has already covered this. My bad.)

My thanks to both of you. However, for the record, my comment was a poor attempt at humour.
