A large, immortal turtle drifts lazily between the orbits of various celestial bodies. The turtle has this remarkable ability to foresee its own trajectory for lightyears beyond its current position, and if anything ahead were to present a threat to the turtle -- say, a collision course with a black hole -- it would simply engage a small device in its back to give it a tiny nudge every few months.
The turtle is utterly amazing -- not for its seemingly effortless ability to live within a vacuum unprotected -- but for its patience and mastery of its own fate.

I think they call it murder... or something along those lines. I'm hazy on exact human terminology. You see - I am a turtle.
So, what's your name anyway?
