We begin with the Prologue.

"Far out 
in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the Galaxy 
lies a small 
unregarded 
yellow 
sun.  
Orbiting this at a distance of roughly ninety-two million miles is 
an utterly insignificant 
blue green planet
whose ape-descended life forms are so amazingly primitive that they still think digital watches are a pretty neat idea" 

(Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy)
