Argos,

I was actually thinking of posting about this exact issue. It seems due to the finite and slow speed of light when put on the galactic scale that any central governance would fail. It would take tens of thousands of years to send a message from one side of the galaxy to the other . . .

Will we ever find FTL transfer of information?
