At this point I’m actually curious about the mass of the lorry.
I wonder if we could estimate the mass of a lorry, 2.5 meters wide, 20 m long, 46 billion light years tall. Let’s assume it’s filled with jars of peanut butter.
At that size, it could well be the most massive object in the universe.
Now that I think about it, it could also be too tall, possibly a tipping hazard around turns.
That truck tipping over could wipe out every lifeform on the planet with nut allergies.
The sheer mass of Skippy would become a fully functional ecological system of its own before cleanup was finished.
