Just jump into the past and fix it," Pamela said.
"Time travel isn't as easy as flipping the pages
of a history book. It's a metric-buttload of mathematics.
The planet's rotating while it's spinning around the
sun that is revolving around the galactic core, that
is in motion relative to the rest of the galaxies
in the universe. If I don't get the math right,
instead of popping in at the local tea shop,
we could materialize inside the sun or solid rock or
in the vacuum of space."
"So now might be one of those times I should
be quiet and let you concentrate?"
"That would be right."
Vance checked the planet and the sun positions.
The time it took to answer Pamela gave a few more
moments of planetary and solar motion, thus allowing
for a more precise measure of the entrophic drag on their
rotational rates.
That was enough to be certain of
a short term jump. He could jump a few hours and then take the
time for a very accurate measurment set he needed for a big jump.
He calculated when and where
this parking space would be last night at midnight.
