For all its unimaginable mass, despite the unthinkable power of its drive, itlurched like a broken-masted galleon, and Colin's stomach heaved despite the internal gravity field.
With its present unimaginable mass it was subject to the natural laws of the alien time-plane and thus was as good as immovable.
And the unimaginable mass that held the darkness together.
Then, very slowly at first, the unimaginable mass of the vessel floated lightly upward with a slowly increasing velocity.
Vast freighters, under whose unimaginable mass the Gargantuanly braced and latticed and trussed docks yielded visibly and groaningly, crushed to a standstill and disgorged their varied cargoes.
To do so would be to accumulate an unimaginable mass of data, which, if the worst came to the worst, hard-pressed investigators would have to work through with a fine-tooth comb.
