"Well, why not try some random coordinates to warp to?" you suggest, "We may get lucky."
"Actually," L33tz4n says, "we'd have to get really lucky. The universe is mostly space, not to mention that if we did actually land on a planet, you'd have to take inertia into account. If you landed on the other side of the planet, you'd be moving at almost a thousand miles an hour in the wrong direction, not taking into account the planet's orbit. So in a sense, the spell is completely useless." You assume she has a point, since she used itallics not once, but twice.
