[Excerpt from the Starship Heart of Gold's Sales brochure, by the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation]

"Presenting the Starship Heart of Gold! Featuring The brand-new Infinite Improbability Drive!
A wonderful new method of crossing vast interstellar distances in a mere nothingth of a second,
without all that tedious mucking about in hyperspace. It was discovered by a lucky chance, and
then developed into a governable form of propulsion by the Galactic Government’s research team
on Damogran. Now you too can take advantage of this sensational new breakthrough in Improbability
Physics! As soon as the ship’s drive reaches Infinite Improbability it passes through every point
in the Universe simultaneously! All the doors in this spaceship have a cheerful and sunny disposition.
It is their pleasure to open for you, and their satisfaction to close again with the knowledge of a
job well done.
Be the envy of other major governments!"

The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy defines the marketing division of the Sirius Cybernetics
Corporation as “a bunch of mindless jerks who’ll be the first against the wall when the revolution
comes,” with a footnote to the effect that the editors would welcome applications from anyone
interested in taking over the post of robotics correspondent.

says "INFINTE IMPROBABILITY", so that you can relive your favourite Hitchhiker's Guide moments!
