“star-- it takes light coming at 700 million miles an hour, it takes 4 and 2/3rds years for the light to get to us. That’s from just the nearest star in the whole of Universe. Our little 8,00-mile globe is a very small thing, and just 100 miles out from it and you don’t tend to fall back in. In fact you find that 99.9999999 percent of Universe you’d do nothing about falling into anything else. You’d just be in orbit. ‘Falling-in’ is a very unique condition.”
