EXCERPT:
Dr. Warren
chattered on. She was as an animated lecturer. Still, it was hard not to let
one’s mind drift with all the amazing things they were viewing. Information
floated in the air around them, and truthfully, Bennett digested only about
half of it.
He
had to admit, this place was pretty impressive. It had changed significantly in
the decades since he’d been here with his BUD/S class.
The
Lester Facility, roughly the size of ten football fields, according to the
information on Bennett’s phone, was not visible from the air. The foliage
folded back to reveal the runway for test flights, and they were able to climb
to forty-five thousand feet, avoiding commercial traffic in less than a minute
without any ill effects to the pilot or crew.
They
walked the entire building as Kimberly not only gave them a tour, but also
pointed out what areas required their input. It was no surprise to either of
them when she said, “I’d like you both to start work in the morning. The day
begins with an 0600 shift. Melo, you can tackle the engineering bugs that keep
cropping up between Sully, the shuttle computer, and Sally, the Lester Facility
computer. Bennett, I’m afraid I need you to submit to a few tests before I can
put you behind the test version of our shuttle controls, unless you’d rather do
something more related to your degree in astrophysics.”
“I’ll
fly,” stated Bennett, grinning like a Cheshire cat because he was getting the
assignment his buddy wanted. In truth, this was his dream job, besides being a SEAL.
Pretty cool that he got to do both.
“Wait,
I’d like to be considered for the pilot role. I’m better qualified in terms of
mechanics and electrics, if there’s trouble up there.” Melo wasn’t going to let
the conversation go. He wanted in on the race to space.
“Yes,
of course.” Dr. Warren shifted her weight from one foot to the other. “Happy to
consider it. But first, eliminate the ghosts in the system—the problems and
bugs—and then you can take the tests. Agreed, Melo?”
“Hot dog!” shouted Melo as he
slapped Bennett on the back. “I’m going to kick your ass, brother. Teammate or
not, I’m going to the moon.”
