One need not have catre blanche to a place in order to know where it is.
Then let's see you go to Mars and turn left.

I'll even make it simpler: just go to one of its moons.

Don't go all the way down there though.

You may not be welcome.

Planning the trip is simple enough; One need not have carte blanche to know where Mars is:





Getting there is a little trickier -- I'll have to make some friends at NASA.

Not to get too far off-topic...Galileo was born in the region of Florence, and that's where he spent his house arrest and where he died. A science museum in the city has many of his papers and scientific instruments on display. But the coolest exhibit of all is Galileo's mummified right 3rd finger. Which was removed from his body after his death (along with his right thumb, and another finger.) The finger, including the 3rd metacarpal bone, is displayed in an ornate glass vessel with gold trim. The only thing cooler would be if it were placed facing towards Rome. So the great astronomer would forever be giving the middle finger salute to the Vatican.
