Warp is defined to be the (warp-number cubed) times the speed of light.
So warp 2 is 2**3 = 8 times the speed of light.

Just to get my word in, I believe there will be a Star Trek IV.  Paramount
will eventually give W. Shatner anything he wants.  I wouldn't lose sleep
over it.

Also, to add to the discussion about Saavik, I much prefer Kirstie Alley
to Robin Curtis.  Robin Curtis is a fine actress, but she's just not
Saavik.  This has been said before (maybe that's where I heard it), but
who says we can't have a pretty Saavik?
