Mission: Argos
Journalist: Jason Benstoner
Age: 13
Location: Course to 2060 Chiron
Today I'm writing from the kitchen on the ship Argos which
is still headed to Chiron. We flew by Saturn today. It was amazing.
The rings were so dusty
and colorful at the same time.The crew was amazed too.
The weather
is better than last time I wrote. The sun is making lots of
solar flares so we have a good speed. We also picked up speed
from the gravity of Saturn on our flyby.
Today
Carver and Dr. Cadence had another fight. Not a big fight just
a little one. It was over who stole Carver's
Coke mouthpiece. To drink Coke in space you need a mouthpiece
so it doesn't float all over the ship. Oh, did I mention what
happens when you sneeze in space? Well it, um, just forget
it. Too disgusting to describe.
The crew
are
all in shape and healthy except for me. I have a bad stomach
ache. Maybe because the food is disgusting. The only good stuff
are the Snickers bars I snatched before the launch. Today Carver
accidentally got the dinner mixed up with toothpaste. At least we have
good breath.
