About 15 to 20 years ago, I needed a username to post on some video game site that doesn't exist anymore. 1979's Alien was on TV, and it was at the scene where they talked about using a prod to corral the alien.

Wouldn't they go on forever with no gravity or wind resistance? Like that speech in Mass Effect about how a shot fired in space will keep on going until it hits something.
