Close to Home by John McPherson for May 17, 2023

star-gating?

I see Bleeb has hitch himself a ride. He can also live in the vacuum of space.

or they are 800 light-years off course.

Too close? I guess so… give or take a millibleem or two!

Nanoo-Nanoo!

I would like to put that bumper sticker on a few peoples vehicles.

Hey, what’s that planet you’re approaching? Uranus? Pluto?

If you are 800 light years away and you can read it, just how big is that thing?

Yet they’re the ones always crash landing on earth

Kudos for using the right meaning of light-year.

D___ straight!

Okay, if I was an Astronaut I’d sneak a bumper sticker on the capsual “Az, Cash or Grass. No one rides for free!”

Eat my warp drive wake you Klingon forehead!

800 light years seems a bit much space to leave between vehicles regardless of speed.

Very funny…

Oh oh, we’re too close.

If you can read it from 800 light years away, you have an incredibly powerful telescope.

Einstein’s theory of relativity———————-relatively too close for comfort.

Space Balls star cruiser bumper sticker “We brake for no one!”

At 800 light years even a strong telescope would have trouble reading that bumper sticker.

If you can read this from 800 light years away, it’s already long gone.

cute!
