See, this is why I would love immortality. All the people afraid of it are just not thinking about the upside, just the floating in space bit.

Which sounds fine to me, btw, humans can get used to anything. I'm a lot more worried about dying in a few decades from now than I'd be about being launched into space by an asteroid impact who knows how long from now, or imprisoned in a mountain.

Erosion, mate. I'll be out in a jiffy.

Would anyone care to ELI5 this comic series for me? I want to know because it seems to be such an esoteric thing.

You can check out the explainxkcd link in the post. That site has explanations for all the xkcd comics

I mean the comic as a whole. Can I find that info on their site?

Yes, there is a page on there about xkcd as a whole, though the Wikipedia page is more expansive in that case: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xkcd
