Once Upon The Stars (old thread)

[Atrocities]

Thanks guys. I feel better, but still weak. I had uploaded them to the ast.com site Last saturday. I was planning on posting them here, but found some errors.

I feel horribly about the loss of the Columbia and her crew. I had written a chapter dealing with why the Pratorian people abandond space exploration, following a horrible tragady, and now, I had reservations about posting it, so I dropped it from the story. I may re-include it else where later on.

Who would have thought that the Columbia would be lost. What a truly sad historical week Last week has been. All three NASA trajodies occured in that week from Apolo I, the Challenger, and now the Columbia. If NASA does anything, they should never send up or recover a shuttle or rocket in the Last week of January ever again.
