One of them seems to have scrawled "Around and around and around and around" all over his space suit, in crayon.

The aliens froze, gripped by a primal fear. This time there would be no abduction.

The James Webb telescope is going to change everything. How so, cretinous oaf? It's going to let us see much farther into deep space than ever before. And the farther we see, the further back in time we're seeing. Do you understand what this means, Sadie? I don't have all day. Get to the point dweeb!
