That many Trojans must be the explanation why my Antivirus dislike Aurora so much

However, I have to draw a line somewhere

"Didn't we send that out 112 years ago?"
"Yes, Sir."
"Gosh, and that was only our own solar system... ."

"How long is the game calculating one 5-day-cycle?"
"Well, last time it took over 25 minutes."
"At least it is not real-time - yet."
"Steve has promised to deliver C# before that happens... ."

" This image is based on data found in the en:JPL DE-405 ephemeris, and the en:Minor Planet Center database of asteroids (etc) published 2006 Jul 6. The image is looking down on the en:ecliptic plane as would have been seen on 2006 August 14. It was rendered by custom software written for Wikipedia."
2006? Interesting coincidence considering how old Aurora is.
