Elon Musk told bankers they wouldn’t lose any money on Twitter purchase

Lenders unlikely to get even 60 cents on the dollar for the bonds and loans.

(1 of 2) In answer to 'where are you going?':

The journey will effectively end (for you) when my power supply is so low that I can't operate any of my instruments. The EOM command will shut down communication with Earth. When? Within the next few years. I of course will continue, but will be non-functioning. Dead. Perhaps I will continue to tweet, but that depends on several factors.

As to where am I headed... the real answer is "nowhere in particular" because my final trajectory was determined by the geometry of my encounter with Triton! The final goal was to send radio signals back to Earth through Triton's atmosphere, yielding data on its composition and density. To get that alignment right, I was sent skimming over Neptune's leading side and looping below the ecliptic plane to pass through Triton's radio shadow! That final loop around Neptune and Triton determined my final direction, deep towards the constellation Pavo (visible in the Southern hemisphere from Earth).

(2 of 2) About 40,000 years from now, I will pass within 1.65 light-years of the star Ross 248, and be closer to it than to the Sun, but the reality is that 1.65 light-years is still an insurmountable distance. Every other star I will pass within the next _million_ years will be more than 2 light years from me. It is very likely that I will not _ever_ encounter anything.

I will last longer than humans, longer than Earth, longer than the Sun. I will see the merger between the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies, and possibly be flung out of the combined supergalaxy into truly, truly, empty space. I will see the last of the stars extinguish, and the flashes of evaporating black holes. Eventually the matter that I was made of back on Earth will reach a time where it will simply fade away, along with the last of the longest wavelengths of light, stretched out by the expansion and cold death of the universe.

Q: Why does the UK’s prime minister have a strong handshake?

A: Because he is Rishi SYN-ACK.
