That was what they were called, genetically mass-produced men and women born of test tubes to augment man’s thinly veiled hold on the outer edges of the galaxy

Granted, his sample was small and he was extrapolating to the dark matter of the whole galaxy and its halo, but the data from the non-targeted halo object lead him to believe extrapolating to the whole galaxy was valid

At the time in question Dan was being cosseted by his robot nanny; I was trying to learn plant propagation on the planet Elphon, a planet similar to Earth in the Quadrel Galaxy; although Elphon is millions of light-years away from Altreena, it only took me minutes to get there by astral travel

Even though scientists are not impressed by New Age teachings, their scientific findings such as images taken by the Hubble telescope show proof that new galaxies are being birthed every now and then
47.
They want to help prevent what is known as The Erasure, in other words the end of this galaxy
48.
The prospect existed that his race would be the only one to survive this, alone, with only the information of a once rich galaxy

At its superluminal rate it could envelope the entire galaxy – and perhaps beyond,
50.
‘I am permitted to give information on the positions, composition and habitat of all the bodies within this galaxy
51.
3 For objects further than 100 light years apart, this method becomes obsolete and cosmologists then revert to measuring the properties of light emitted by stars and galaxies to determine the distances to these objects
52.
4 If we wanted to perform an experiment that would prove that galaxies and other celestial objects in space are in general moving away from us, how would we go about doing this? The initial thought that led people to believe that objects are moving away from Earth (and that the Universe, as a result of this, is thought to be expanding), originated when they encountered the red-shift phenomenon when viewing the majority of stars and/or galaxies
53.
If we were able to move around at will through the Universe, and perform additional observations, this would then have allowed us to go to the opposite side of an observed galaxy, at the same distance as it is viewed from the Earth, measure and record the properties of the light which this galaxy emits, and compare the new results with the results as measured from Earth
54.
If the measurements show a shift into the blue from the new vantage point, we know with certainty that the galaxy is in fact moving away from Earth and towards the new vantage point
55.
If the results show a shift of the light into the red, similar to observations from the Earth, we would know that our initial interpretation would be wrong; since the galaxy, cannot at the same time be moving away from Earth and also moving toward the Earth
56.
From obtaining these measurements, we would know that the galaxy is probably not moving away from Earth, but that the speed of light is more likely to be slowing down
57.
The voice, surprising mild and calm, said, ‘I serve the greater purpose of ensuring this planet will be cleansed of its potential danger to the galaxy
58.
Over a long period of time, the slightly denser regions of the nearly uniformly distributed matter gravitationally attracted nearby matter and thus grew even denser, forming gas clouds, stars, galaxies, and the other astronomical structures observable today

Consider the light years that would have to be traveled to the Andromeda Nebula, the nearest spiral galaxy to our own Milky Way

“Show me the holo of the galaxy,” requested the hollow-voiced human, only just beginning to feel relief from the aches in his spinal column

He wished he knew more stars, but the galaxy in Andromeda wasn’t going to help much…Vega perhaps? If he could only identify one star for certain! He was trying to narrow down what was an infinity of space, and he was in a bit of a panic! Let’s say he could positively identify one star—that meant that the Earth, could be anywhere within a full sphere of space, at anything up to two or three thousand light-years, anyhow
80.
Hilderich had been busy resting most of the time at first, but he did spend some time with the machine, which naturally saw to the daily routine of maintaining the ship, checking and plotting their course, as well as trying to update Hilderich on the workings of the universe and the general state of affairs in the civilized galaxy

That technological humanity can live in houses and cities rather than in caves or grass huts in small villages; that it can move about in comfortable mechanical devices rather than on foot or atop animals; that it has scientifically developed treatments for disease rather than having to rely on the ministrations of shamans and witch doctors; that scientists and engineers can create the enormous labor-saving capacity of the tiny computer chip; that astronomers can pursue an understanding of spiral galaxies, black holes, and the creation of the Universe—all of this and the rest of civilization is a result of patiently learning how to understand, to mitigate, and to exploit the potential of a raw and ferocious nature
89.
He notices the words are of space, stars, and galaxies

He wonders why it stopped on the Andromeda Galaxy
