Welcome aboard, Miss 'Feather.

I wasn't trying to be particularly funny about our upcoming space maneuvers. I hope you're referring to the comment about kicking the table leg.

This will be a complicated process. We have to match speeds with the planet Mars, transfer our three mass rotation to a stable two-mass configuration, bring the Flying Castle to an atmospheric entry vector, and de-orbit smoothly to a landing position inside a nice round crater on the surface of Mars -- and not break any dishes in the kitchen or spill anybody's drink or the water in the moat.

So it's kinda tricky, see?


Did I mention we'll be doing this with almost the last of our rocket propellant?

Now, where did I leave my slide rule?

Oh don't worry about the kitchen. With the special padded racks nothing will break.

That is, assuming that everybody put their dishes away.

Thank You.

Yes, it was kicking the table I had in mind.

Well, I have a lot of space graphics which are fun. Should be interesting backing the ship into the crater. How many pilots we gonna have?? LOL


Some good Si-Fi should come out of it at any rate. You're good at that.
