For a sec, I thought this was you... and of course, what do people expect? It's fifty million light-years away! Can they even conceive how far that is? How far it would take light to travel? This alone is a huge accomplishment.

Slate is an online magazine that covers current affairs, politics, and culture in the United States from a liberal leftist perspective.
