Did you know that the average cruising speed of a ship this size is about 18.5 knots---that's around 34.3 kilometers an hour? And if you've been traveling on this ship for a year, that means you've traveled about 300,468 kilometers, which is 186,701-ish miles. Taking into accounts stops and the natural slowing down of a ship facing currents, I've calculated that you've traveled 275,000 kilometers. Which is 170,877 and a half miles, if you must know.

Which means you, Miss Parker, have traveled the circumference of the Earth 6.8 times.

Tell me, Jarod, have you been on deck yet?

It's an interesting view. I taught astrology at Montgomery College and I don't recognize the constellations out there.
