Some sources say that the number should be 10000, not 40000, but you can easily undock in a frigate and check that 40000 is indeed the correct number. The "arcsinh" function in the inverse of hyperbolic sine. If you wish to put this formula into a spreadsheet program, it might be the function "asinh" instead.
