The Luddites frown upon your dangerous unearthly thoughts and demand that you cease and desist this foolishness.

Don’t forget

The Infinite Improbability Drive is a faster-than-light drive. It is based on a particular perception of quantum theory: a subatomic particle is most likely to be in a particular place, such as near the nucleus of an atom, but there is also a small probability of it being found very far from its point of origin (for example close to a distant star). Thus, a body could travel from place to place without passing through the intervening space (or hyperspace, for that matter), if you had sufficient control of probability.[1] According to the Guide, in this way the drive “passes through every conceivable point in every conceivable universe almost simultaneously,” meaning the traveller is “never sure where they’ll end up or even what species they’ll be when they get there,” therefore it’s important to dress accordingly.

The Guide’s entry on the drive states it was invented “following research into finite improbability, which was often used to break the ice at parties by making all the molecules in the hostess’ undergarments leap one foot simultaneously to the left, in accordance with the theory of indeterminacy”. It further explains that many respectful physicists wouldn’t go to stand for that scenario, “partly because it was a debasement of science, but mostly because they didn’t get invited to those sort of parties.”
