The Weight
Numbers pile up and reach astronomy. They have to get up there before launches are possible. Topographical maps of space look like connect the dots. Those lines between the dots require very large numbers.
Those three dimensions go a long way. Viewed from one angle, two points can be almost side-by-side. View them from 90 degrees in any other direction, and they might not fit in frame. Filling in the gaps takes a long time.
The wait continues. Tomorrow may find you. A million years may not.
