Yeah, the 80/80 rule. That made me smile.
Its past the influence of our sun. At least as measured by the on board tec of the time. Sort of out in the void between the stars but at these distances just barely out.

And the paint bucket.
Lead pipes get coated with residue by the water in no time. So no the roman empire did not fall because of lead
Genes cause fever ? I stopped there.
Good. I remember a certain video camera operating in the infrared fringe of the visible spectrum. You could see through light clothes. We do not want that again. At all.
