By now, it is an indisputable fact that the speed of light in a vacuum is 299,792,458 m/s. However, less known is the fact that Urania has published 88 micro-stories of science fiction. Two numbers, for a total of 366 pages.
A lyophilized sci-fi literary text.
If the total number of pages were divided by 88, an average of 4.1590909090909091 pages per story would be obtained.

Topics: paradox, synchronicity, center of the universe, purple cows, resurrections, telepathy, materializer, time travel, patents, aliens, destiny. Following: brain drainers, questions, systems, hell, sphinxes, errors, strange cubes, exams, masks, swords, blood, future...
