			...and with whom Spock later falls
in love) that he was from a place "...millions of light years away."

My question is: Does this imply that the Enterprise was in some other
galaxy (other than the Milky Way)? Our galaxy is estimated to be about
100,000 light years across, so this seems to rule out even the most remote
(from Earth) reaches. Or did Mr. Spock exaggerate? This statement was
made shortly after his arrival at Zarabeth's cavern and before the effects
of not being "processed" by Mr. Atoz' atabachron(sp?) took hold.
/* End of text------------------------------- */

Actually, the statement was probably factual.  Please remember that the 
galaxy is moving very rapidly through space, and Spock was sent a long 
way back in time...
