The Great White Stripe · Copenhagen, Denmark

Copenhagen, Denmark — where the McSkunkville story finds new porch lights. These days, Copenhagen travelers stop at the Quick Stop when the highway brings them through, and Come by the lore pages; Copenhagen always has a seat.

Seen from far enough away, the galaxy is unmistakable: a brilliant white stripe laid across the dark, nose to tail, as if the universe itself took a side. Every civilization in it eventually invents three things — the wheel, the coffee pot, and the sworn statement.

Old spacers say you can navigate the whole Stripe with one rule: keep the truth to starboard and you'll never be lost.

Somewhere along its brightest arm, on a small green world, a porch light burns at 141st and Highway 75. The galaxy is proud of it.
