Now is when I wish that the real Vikings wore those cool horned helmets. Because I just had this awesome vision of Leif Ericsson, horns and all, glowering at you with the entire population of Iceland, Norse Greenland, the Faeroes, and the Shetlands arrayed behind him and Led Zeppelin's Immigrant Song playing in the background. [1] In other words: I'm guessing that the Atlantic is still five or six orders of magnitude more navigable than outer space. ;) I haven't read National Geographic in years, actually, although I might go check it out just to read about the Polynesians.
