Dr. Francine Simmons developed a teleporter to traverse the cosmos.

“How does it work, Francine?” asked her colleague Dr. Michael Brown.

“What? Are you serious?”

“Yes, of course. Eventually, I’ll become an interstellar traveler. Once I pass away, it’s only a matter of time until our sun will become a nebula, and my space dust will spread throughout the cosmos.”

“Oh gosh, Michael, did you join that weird cult on campus?”
