Don't move! You're blocking the infrared path—okay, okay, now lean to the left... perfect! See that flickering amber glow just past the Orion Nebula? Most people call that a 'variable star,' but look at the rhythm. Long, short, long... that’s a heartbeat, kid! Or at the very least, a very polite 'hello' in Jovian Morse code.
