Any Terry Pratchett fans here?

 

1. Well Captain, it’s like this: any probability curve has two endpoints. And one of those endpoints shows the most unlikely events of all actually happening. Space, being nearly infinite, can be seen as a physical parallel to mathematical N-space; the phase space that contains all probabilities. Even without using the multiple universe theory or even the well-worn Trousers of Time theory, physical space is big enough to allow all things even remotely possible to occur somewhere. So here we are, at the end of both the universe and the probability curve, an intersection of two arms of L-space, and here is the Enterprise scanning Diskworld. It’s perfectly logical.

   All of Great A’Tuin in the picture, and a star and a planet nearby? That’s some scanner. Can’t wait until the Away Party comes back, inadvertently bring Feegles with them. Think there was trouble with Tribbles? Ach, crivens, yea daft scunner, they’re as nothing compared to the Wee Free Men!

2. Okay, it was Drew that’s a fan. Thanks Drew, now my brain hurts. Gonna have to medicate it with copious amounts of Bloody Marys.

   Oh yeah, thanks for that image of the Feegles overrunning the Enterprise. David Gerrold would have a field day with that script.
