I get pulled on so many sides by so many people that I don't realize it anymore. 😕

You haven't been getting enough spice I see. Your mask is drying out also. Don't jump up and down on the ground like that, are you nuts?

Ah, so you are aware of the Dune story... Did you know that the idea of warping space for distant travel was first presented in the Dune novel? (Yeah, and the planet Arrakis was the only place in the universe where the spice was produced for this purpose). Later on everyone jumped on the idea about warping space to travel great distances.

That movie has to be the most sampled film in the Psychedelic Trance music genre! 'The spice is life, the spice is likened to space travel.....Travel...without moving~*~*~*~ boom boom boom 😵

Actually we will know a lot more about the place long before we can send probes there.

I didn't think you were going to be finicky about the significant digits, I guess I was wrong 3.4x10^5 years if you like.

That figure will certainly change anyway, my joshing about the decimal places aside.

If things go along as the climatatologists are saying, we might need one in 50 years, not 5000.
