A horrible stinking world destroyed by an overabundance of shoe stores. It is the site of two important things in the universe of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy": 1) the Total Perspective Vortex (exposes the sheer, utter, incomprehensible vastness of the universe to the hapless soul strapped inside, destroying his or her soul); and 2) future site of Milliways, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe.
(on the Total Perspective Vortex)
"You ever had a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster?" asked Zaphod sharply.
"This is worse."
"Phreeow!" admitted Zaphod, much impressed.
