The Isis Adventure

Just noticed on the Sonic Games Twitter Page a riddle was posted on the 28th. Dec 2010 giving the first five people with the correct answer, the chance to win a Copernisis.

Easy, The Space shuttle travels at 17,500 mph and the milky way is 100,000 light year wide. Light travels 186,ooo miles every second so it's


[186,000*60*60*24*365.25*100,000]/17,500=

So it takes a very long long long time....

Maybe the space shuttle isn't "the fast reuseable craft known"?
Then that resulting travel time could be reduced by a few lifetimes...

Where should one send the answer?

The riddle for me is a separate thing from the puzzle in that the riddle has nothing to do with the mechanics of the puzzle. I could buy a combo lock and create a convoluted riddle based o

n the combo for the lock but it doesn't make the lock a puzzle. That being said I had fun and thought it was worth the money just for the metal puzzle its self.

The riddle on the Twitter Page does not refer to the clues to position the planets on the Copernisis, it's a completely separate competition to win one of five Copernisis, but I agree that the Copernisis is like two puzzles in one.

Oops that's what I get for not reading the whole post and not having Twitter.
