Sorry to say but the constellations and asterisms seen from our humble rock are completely out of whack because we're facing the wrong direction of the galaxy.
If only we were in the Cygnus arm with a different inclination it'd be patently obvious the stars had been arranged in a series of primes which hint towards a formula which would show how to bend spacetime travelling between two points in several planck time units which is nigh-instantaneous to you and me.
According to galactic law, laid down about five great years ago, it's forbidden to share this information with anyone regardless if it's for egalitarian purposes. Such an act is punishable by orbital bombardment by antimatter weapons with the ensuing metal ashes being scattered into a cloud which obscures the star from the rest of civilization.
Too many damned primates in the galaxy anyway. If it wasn't for the foreheads you couldn't tell one from another with their damned laughing and jabbering about sex. At least the food is good and we're not talking about xenoanthrophagy which is supposed to be illegal but it's phrased in the same way of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell".
