Game of Thrones is kind of a loss leader-- it gets people to buy a subscription

Pick one.
A. During the Olympics, traffic will be a nightmare
B. During the Olympics, all traffic lights will be green

Population of Alaska--722,718
Population of United States-- 311,591,917
Twenty Three hundredths of a percent of the united states

If Sagitarius A* is a supermassive black hole, with a mass of, say, 4.1 million solar masses, its radius is probably no more than 6.25 light hours-- 45 AU. This star drifted within 5.2 light hours-- 37 AU.
"light hours" have the advantage of conveying just how large a light year is--63240 AU, or (if you must), 5.87 trillion miles.
Or, to put another way.

Go see "Life of Brian."
