Mission 5-socks-in-space: A team of highly-trained, highly-socked astronauts have embarked on a quest to find the most elusive sock of all time. They've encountered 3.7 billion miles of pure, unadulterated awesomeness. And 1.4 billion miles of pure, unadulterated boredom.
As we speak, the crew is on the 42nd hour of their journey, with 2.3 socks remaining in their inventory and 17.8 hours of fuel left.
