You are probably mixing up km/s and m/s, as the speed of light is around 300,000 km/s. Either Fall of Reach or First Strike.It is stated 'point four tenths the speed of light' in the novel, which is interpreted by the first edition Halo Encyclopedia as '0.4c', and the second edition of the Halo Encyclopedia as 'nearly half the speed of light'.So the evidence suggests that 'point four tenths the speed of light' is intended to mean 40% the speed of light, though worded awkwardly.That said the literal meaning of 'point four tenths' is '(0.4)/10' = 4% the speed of light. I thought it was explicitly stated in one of the original trilogy books.
