@neiltyson Then why not simply say that it travels five miles in one second, Neil? Neil? You there, Neil? -
@AWorldOutOfMind i demand an answer.@neiltyson -
@AtheiStranger@neiltyson I love Neil, but hey, gotta hold the man to account. He'd be mad with me if I didn't, that's how he rolls... -
@AWorldOutOfMind i'm with you. frankly, i'm shocked. thought it was a parody account.@neiltyson -
@AtheiStranger@neiltyson Yes the only way he can make it up to me now is to have lunch with me when he's in town. I want multiverse lessons -
but,
@AWorldOutOfMind, somewhere, in another universe,@neiltyson is having lunch with you right now.. -
@AtheiStranger@neiltyson He can bring Brian Green along too for moral support, I don't even care...

@neiltyson Does it travel 5 miles in 5/5 of a second or does it take a break? -
@jonrosenberg@neiltyson it goes a third of an inch per microsecond during those final 200 milliseconds.
