Future Road Trip

[den]

I need to do this soon.



There are ten billboards set up between Dubbo and Siding Springs Observatoy. I think I have to visit them all.

There's a solar system walk (about 2 miles i think) in a nearby town. I need to do that.

Nowhere near as nifty as this though.

Somewhere at the end of the signs there should be another one saying Burma Shave...

Ok..that's just cool...although I'd be tempted to see how fast one could get from the Sun to Pluto and then work out one's scale speed...
[hey, how often do you get to drive at relativistic speeds?]

It's a 2.5 hour drive, so I think my car can do warp speeds.

[siliconshaman.livejournal.com]

Hmm... I make that just under 3c or about warp 1.4 then, given that it takes light 6.385 hours to make the 7.5 billion Km trip.

Tad bit over the posted speed limit there!

Hey, wonder if there's a sign saying Speed limit : 1,079,252,848.8 km/h

I hope your car gets at least a million miles to the gallon,Pluto ain't just across the street!:D

Somewhere on the far side of Australia is a similar drive marked www.40eridania.com, which starts with the planet Vulcan...

"Scientists got sick of that joke so they changed the planet's name."
"So what's it called now?"
"Your Asshole."
