Same trip: cosmic ray muons travel at 99.92% of the speed of light, so when they hit the earths atmospher they should self destruct in .5 km, but because they travel so fast time dilation increases their lives 25 times, so they live long enough to hit the surface-lol.

Heart Of Darkness is pretty dark-lol. Sommerset Maughm is one of my heros. And few ever talk about George Bernard Shaw, one of the human species intellectual giants.
