Ben

Engrossed in his work, Ben left the booth, he left the diner. His mind soared off through the great expanse of the cosmos, through distant worlds and endless clusters of stars he could only dream of. The vast, endless cosmos stretched out before him, drawing him ever onward, presenting him with enticing avenues for exploration that begged to be followed. Distant galaxies spun mightily before him, great hurricanes of gas and light, brilliant and far away. Nearer stars sailed through the void, circumstellar disks and planets following in their thrall.
