There are about 200 billion stars in our Milky Way galaxy. Over the next million years our descendents will spread among the stars in an exponential explosion of life, remaking the galaxy as surely as life has remolded Earth in its own image. Let's be conservative, and assume that only one star in 100 has a planet capable of being made into a habitable world, and that only star systems with such planets are ever occupied. That means 2 billion barren planets upon which to sow the seeds of life, or 2000 per year for the next million years--about five a day. Life grows geometrically, so the rate of expansion will be slow at first but will inexorably compound into a spherical wavefront of life propagating outward at a substantial fraction of the speed of light.

Knowing that we exist, we invent and create, we build the future. The different experiences brought us here, melting in the glamorous temples of our friendships. Thanks to the people who understood youth as a brighter future, and started with developing the idea of putting it together, and bringing the world closer. We've been together, we'll always be, walking on the road through eternity. We listen to the voices and appreciate what the past generations have done.
