Hot Wheels of Inquiry is named for the starship called Hot Needle of Inquiry from Larry Niven's Ringworld Engineers. The Needle was used to investigate the far-away Ringworld, and had a great many autonomous systems onboard. Hot Wheels of Inquiry will explore my apartment with the same adventurous spirit as the Needle.
