"What I don't understand, Dr. Fagan, is how you realized that the stable subspace strings that Dr. Poccator postulated would actually be strong enough to use for propulsion. How did you know that his theory would create a hyperspace tunnel? What led you to choose that direction of research over all the other competing methods that your team developed?"

"Well," Dr. Fagan replied, "You've got to pick a Poccator tube, boys. You've got to pick a Poccator tube."
