Then I bet you loved the bits about weather and climate that are 
popping up.

ps. Here are the scales of the missing pages:

14th pair [~713 AU]
15th pair [~8600 AU]
16th pair [~0.5 parsec]
17th pair [~6 pc]
18th pair [~74 pc]
19th pair [~887 pc]
20th pair [~11 kpc]  (about a third of the galaxy would show]
21st pair [~128 kpc] (the galaxy and neighborhood would show)
22nd pair [~1500 kpc] (Andromeda would be well inside the page)
23rd pair [~18 Mpc] 
24th pair [~221 Mpc]
25th pair [~2.6 Gpc]

Which brings us to the hubble limit being a fraction of the next 
page....
