How close to the moon are you?
Just had a strange thought . . the average distance between the earth & moon is 238,857 miles. At 147k miles on the clock, my Bimmer would be almost 2/3 of the way there, with a transmission that might fail at anytime

How far along are you? Think you'll make it? Or are you already on your way back?

I'm studying for my last Calc test, so math is running through my head. Sorry.

I could have put that in a parametric equation for you...
