Space and time might have a word, and if not, then gravity will have the ultimate say (the radiation environment is also very likely highly disagreeable).

So you're saying there's a chance

A very real chance. Forget the statistics, thats for mathematicians and they never space travel.

It's easy. 50/50. He either goes or he doesn't.

NightHawkomen t1_j9vu4co wrote

Hmm IDK 50/50 = 1/1 so 100% he is going or is that 100% not going? I feel like there should be a cat in a box somewhere to make it definitive.

Depends if he ties toast to the back of the cat to use as an endlessly rotating fuel source

I feel like there should be a rainbow involved somewhere in that travel method.

The cat says you've already been there as long as no one is looking.

The Forbidden planet, in the system of doom, in the galaxy of no return.

Sounds nice.

Oh sweet! You can join me on my trip. I'm taking my mineral collection and we can make petri dishes out of our armpit sweat. I've already got over 378 petri dishes going and I can't wait to see how yours compares to mine.

Once we get there, I'm going to set up my speaker system and play tibetan throat music while I mediate out loud.

I think we'll have the best of time, especially since it'll be just the two of us.
