Possible page quote from The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy:
"Infinite: Bigger than the biggest thing ever and then some. Much bigger than that in fact, really amazingly immense, a totally stunning size, real 'wow, that's big,' time. Infinity is just so big that, by comparison, bigness itself looks really titchy. Gigantic multiplied by colossal multiplied by staggeringly huge is the sort of concept we're trying to get across here."
Hide / Show RepliesThere's some calculus fail on this page. I don't know whether or not to correct it though, seeing as, you know, its fraking calculus, and I've never seen Voyager.
Voyager: you can totally accelerate towards infinite. Numbers approaching infinity is one of the basic functions in calculus.
