Our Galaxy, the Milky Way...The Solar Cistern...It is fascinating, Man has been to the Moon which is almost 1000 miles away.

We have been to Mars which is over 2000 miles away but we will never go to the Sun as this is over 6000 miles away and we would have to go at night as it would be too hot during the day. Humans have achieved so much but will we ever colonise another planet? The only habitable planet is Venus but that is over 4000 miles away so it would take at least 2 weeks to get their with our current technology but is it possible in our life time?

Solar cistern? What like a cosmic toilet?

@basilfawlty89 Yes it is indeed, you are clearly a man of science.

@AndysAttic not really, but I'm familiar with a [b]solar system [/b].

@basilfawlty89 Well, well, well...How fascinating, and is that near the solar cistern?

@basilfawlty89 As I suspected, but is that not where The Restaurant at the End of the Universe resides?

@AndysAttic well played, mate. I wasn't if trolling or not initially. I tip my hat.
