Normally Paul would just play fast and loose with the facts for poetic
licence, but this is one time that he gets it just plain wrong.
The star in question is Alpheratz, which is in the constellation of
Andromeda. True, so is the galaxy of Andromeda, but Alpheratz is
only 97 light years from Earth, while the galaxy of Andromeda is a
good 2,000,000 light years further away. That's not exactly in
the same neighbourhood. Nevertheless, our Earth travellers seem
to be having a pretty good time what with
the light show and the bubble people.
Bubble people?
