   Captain: We were having a navigational issue.

   Cost Guard: Then why were you going full speed ahead if you were having issues?

   Captain: The space was deep enough, the Sun was uncharted, I didn’t know it was there.

   Cost Guard: The Sun? You didn’t know the Sun was there? People have been living around the Sun for millions of years, it was charted before we even had charts.

   LOL.
