Space: the final IP frontier These are the voyages of the range of IPv6 Its many-year mission: to explore strange new device implementations; to seek out new planet-covering nano-device applications and new ad-hoc networking technologies; to boldly go via DTN where no internet segment has gone before. <cue space-like music> :: Isn't this the utopia we've been seeking out?
