In The Government’s Plan to Contain the Alien Contagion, the chapter “Why Aliens Cannot Be From a Distant Galaxy – A Scientific and Theological Case” takes the same distance numbers and adds hard travel math, showing that at Apollo 10’s record speed it would take approximately 6,618 years just to reach…
