Of course as I have said before Blinky's planet may have moved 25000 light year by now so it could be 50000 all said and done. Arthur said I should know Einstein's theories. I said well I left school at 14 and you didn't until you were 26.

Time travel sound super intriguing. I cannot begin to imagine the possibilities and limits of it.

I'm very late, but I did enjoy the read.  I plan to do some time travel some day.  I plan on arriving at the pearly gates on the sides of the North, at the exact same time that my loved ones do, those who left here many years before my departure will be.  I never did quite understand how that would happen, but I see you have a good scald on it all.

I'm just not equipped to deal with mathy things today. But I do get

the concept that stars are distant in time as well as the number of inches between earth and whichever one you're looking at - but really aren't...

I am never running again considering the increase of mass and weight. Oh you could have talked all day and not told me that Professor.

50,000 light years....25,000 light years...doesn't really matter to someone my age. Unless I turn into the Road Runner I ain't got time to get there...but we are only a nanosecond away from traveling far faster than light. (My prediction)

Image result for roadrunnerof course I couldn't help myself!!!
