Electricity? Uh, no...not likely. Even so, what would you power with it? Technology is a very chicken-or-egg thing. Short of conquering the world for a brief period, whereupon your legacy would end (either having been assassinated or died of poor medical care or dysentery), you would accomplish nothing for the greater good of humanity.

Whose speed was much faster than light
She set out one day
In a relative way
And returned the previous night.

The sun is the same, in a relative way, but you're older. Shorter of breath, and one day closer to death.There was a young woman named Bright
Whose speed was much faster than light
She set out one day
In a relative way
And returned the previous night.
Discuss.
No fuel left for the pilgrims

Whenever life get you down, Mrs. Brown
And things seem hard or tough
And people are stupid, obnoxious or daft
And you feel that you've had quite enough....
Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving
And revolving at 900 miles an hour
That's orbiting at 19 miles a second, so it's reckoned
A sun that is the source of all our power
The sun and you and me, and all the stars that we can see
Are moving at a million miles a day
In an outer spiral arm, at 40,000 miles an hour
Of the galaxy we call the Milky Way
Our galaxy itself contains 100 billion stars
It's 100,000 light-years side-to-side
It bulges in the middle, 16,000 light-years thick
But out by us it's just 3000 light-years wide
We're 30,000 light-years from galactic central point
We go round every 200 million years
And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions
In this amazing and expanding universe
The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding
In all of the directions it can whiz
As fast as it can go, at the speed of light you know
Twelve million miles a minute and that's the fastest speed there is
So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure
How amazingly unlikely is your birth
And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space
Because there's bugger all down here on Earth
