Simulating an interstellar flight on long-term hardware.

I'm about 95% sure this is feature complete and ready for launch. I've run plenty of flight simulations on both my laptop and the Raspberry Pi and I've been running test flights on the Pi. Still, once launched, the simulation can't be stopped, so I've got that little bit of trepidation.

I think the biggest question will be seeing how long the system can run for before hardware failure.
