Captain’s Log, Stardate 091518 We’ve arrived at the edges of Federation space, transiting through the Dakotas into Northern Minnesota. It is a strange sight to watch the last of the stars slip off the bow and then stare into a… Read More ›
Discovery
The Devils of Blue Earth
Captain’s Log, Stardate 090818 Late last week we entered orbit around a lush, wet world known to the native populations as Blue Earth. Disappointingly, the soil is of the brown variety and not blue as advertised, but it is still… Read More ›

Staying Connected
Toughest job on Discovery at the moment likely belongs to our communications officer. As mentioned, we aren’t on perpetual vacation. We still need some way to pay for this adventure plus our recent graduate’s college tuition. To make that happen, we… Read More ›
