The velocity-addition formula combines the ship's station-frame velocity and the capsule's ship-frame velocity:
(1)
For the distance convention in i, station-frame arrival takes . Transforming its two endpoint events back to the ship frame gives , agreeing with i. The capsule remains below the speed of light in either frame.
