Okay. Starships carrying messages are the fastest form of interstellar communication humans have.
Three months from now, flags go up when Florence doesn't arrive at her destination. A year from now, her owner gets these messages. Fourteen months, the Asimov returns here.
Fourteen months. A lot can happen in fourteen months. Even the worst case gives me more time to run away than I usually get.

There's something wrong with the numbers… (Robot Spike)
This means that Flo has been with Sam for nine months. After all, one trip around of the ship lasts a year. (БТРкО)
Not really. Three months -the ship's throw to the station where Florence was to leave. One year until it returns to the point from which she departed. A year and two months -the ship makes a full circle. That puts her in anabiosis for two months. And for a chronology of events in the comic book, see the supplementary material. Winston said that he'd been flying pre-light for 17 years, and he was one of the first colonists to arrive. Consequently, hyperdrive was invented no later than two decades ago (the age of the robots here) and the Azimov is from the first generation of ships. (KALDYH)
