E. Grosvenor log entry t-1
|
|
The Space Beagle is departing in the morning.
|
|
Although the rest of the crew seems competent I am the only
|
|
Nexialist aboard.
|
|
I am getting used to sideways looks.
|
|
They don't seem to know what to think of me.
|
|
They are mostly old space hands.
|
|
But none of us has done anything like this before.
|
|
If all goes well we may return before we die.
|
|
The more I explain the odds against everything going well
|
|
the less they want to talk to me.
|
|
I did the math, I know I'm right.
|
|
That doesn't make me popular.
|
|
The next time I make a log entry we'll all be in space.
|
|
I'm as excited as a podcaster.
