"Doctor," Jack said, dryly, "Do I really need to list the ways I've died? Not forgetting that time I blew up. I think I can handle a bit of pain." He did used to wonder if anything could finally kill him. It was perhaps that which had been the last straw. Blowing up and coming back from it. Blowing up and remembering it. There couldn't really be a lot worse, could there?
Jack's demeanour stiffened a little as the visor rose and he looked at the floating bodies outside. It was a terrible way to go.
At the question his eyes tilted in the Doctor's direction before down at his wrist strap. "When we boarded the craft it was, give or take, about three thousand kilometres due east of the surface of the Eye of Orion. Average speed I registered back in the other room I'd say were about... ooh, another, three point two, three point three thousand further in the same direction?" He frowned a little and shook his wrist strap as though that would fix a problem.
"Weird though, the sensors aren't picking up a location like they should be. In fact... they're not picking up anything."
