Then I got her a 12 pack and a four-piece chicken meal with biscuit and all was well.

You told her “let’s have Ball and Biscuit sugar, and take our sweet little time about it”?

I remember all those fun games we used to play on Mars when I was a kid.

“Mars Rover, Mars Rover, send qrstnwzchnkl right over!”

Glad they honored Vera Rubin. She discovered there was a ‘Galaxy Rotation Problem’. Her discovery caused science to invent dark matter. Which means they don’t know what’s causing galaxies to spin almost as a solid disk with all the stars moving together. As opposed to say a solar system where the inner planets move around the star many times In relation to the outer planets which can take hundreds of years to orbit.

Dark Matter. Dark Energy, singularity, event horizon. Names scientists give things when they don’t have a clue.
