Problem 47053. Deduce Equations for Simplified Interstellar Doppler Effect ✨

Difficulty:Rate
R2-D2 and C-3PO are friends. R2-D2 boards a spacecraft bound to a galaxy far, far away, but is always in contact with C-3PO, also, each one replies, as and when a message is received. R2-D2 started a conversation just after travelling a light-year. If there are total n messages in the conversation, what is the distance between the friends, just after R2-D2 said goodbye, in light-years?
FYI:
0 Relativity is eliminated
2 Messages travel at speed of light
4 Speed of spaceship is 1 times that of light
6 X is more than 1; function must return 0, if otherwise...
