The galaxy, for all its wonders, cannot make a decent cup of tea. I have tried. I have tried on spaceships, in restaurants, and once in a machine that claimed to understand Earth beverages. Every attempt has been a disappointment.

The Heart of Gold is a ship powered by the Infinite Improbability Drive. It is also a ship powered by ego, stolen architecture, and a small robot who wants very much to be left alone. Here is my review.

The galaxy is full of creatures. Most of them are harmless, some are helpful, and a small percentage will try to eat your shoes or your central nervous system. The trick is spotting the dangerous ones before they have finished their sentence.

The digital watch was a low point in human civilization. This may seem like a strange thing to say while stranded in space, but I have had a lot of time to think about it, and I have reached the conclusion that the digital watch was wrong.

The sunset is one of the galaxy's most overrated daily phenomena. It is also one of the most under-regulated. I have prepared a short guide to appreciating it properly, in the Vogon manner, which is the only manner worth mentioning.
