he had no time to waste. He guessed he had been out for as long as a few

The duration of 9,192,631,770 periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state of the cesium-133 atom." This is measured by atomic clocks that are accurate to within one second over a period of fifteen billion years—roughly the age of the universe.

four years to reach the nearest star.

It turns out that while objects can move through space and time at different rates, they all move through space-time at exactly the same rate: the speed of light. Always.

Through space-time, yes, that's exactly what I'm saying. When you're not moving at all in space, you're moving at the speed of light, so to speak, through time—the fastest the universe allows you to do so. When you're moving at the speed of light through space, you stop moving through time.

Both paint a picture of a universe that seems ridiculous. Crazier than something out of a fantasy novel." "For instance?" prompted Elovic.
