Chapitre 4149: The Price of Power

"Let me give you one concrete example of how grand works can significantly change the course of human civilization for the better." Master Dervidian said. "Have you ever wondered how we were initially able to set foot in this dwarf galaxy?"

"Uhhh…"

"Think about it, Mr. Larkinson. The distance from the closest point of the Milky Way Galaxy and the closest point of the Red Ocean Dwarf Galaxy is around 350,000 light-years. Do you think our best starships can possibly cross this immense divide in a matter of decades or centuries?"

"I am not an expert in FTL technology, so I can't say for sure."

"We cannot. No form of human or alien FTL technology is sufficient. The faster forms of superluminal travel are unable to bridge the enormous gap while the slower forms of FTL travel will delay our arrival by thousands of years at the very least. So how do you think we have been able to enter the Red Ocean?"
