If you are in a spaceship that is traveling at the speed of light, and you turn on the headlights, does anything happen<\/strong>?<\/p>\n

Steven Wright<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Survived another night. Cats fed and one feral cat rescued. It is going to be a rough couple of days while she gets used to her siblings again.<\/p>\n

I made hot sludge for breakfast. Instant oats, hot water, honey and cinamon. Add a little oatmilk stir and you have tasty brown sludge. Don’t worry made hot coffee too.<\/p>\n

I made a deal with myself, stay home do litterboxes or go in to pickup freight. TBD after coffee.<\/p>\n

No vitamins the daily dispenser is empty needs refilling. I will do that while I drink my coffee.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Solar panels are producing like crazy, over 13 AMPS last I checked. That’s good. I drained the batteries playing Starfield, down to below 60%.<\/p>\n

After vitamin refilling I will play for a bit. I am converting the worst starship to the best one, just to see if I can. Yup, I am rebuilding and redesigning the Frontier into a Class C ship. Those of you that play understand.<\/p>\n

The reason I play? Starfield is as close as I will ever get to space. I don’t think NASA is hiring disabled 66 year old men to become Space Pilots. I was born at the very begining of the Space race. I was born when Sputnik launched, I watched with wide eyed anticipation as Armstrong landed on the moon. Now I get to do the same.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Unfortantely the game is a little prophetic, with the destruction of Earth. I see that happening.<\/p>\n

Just like now there are bad people in space, I play as a Ranger, a take off of the Texas Rangers. I fight the bad and help the good.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nLitterboxes got done. Solar panels didn’t produce enough power. The gen is running. As you saw in the pictures the sun is down<\/p>\n

I am spent, soaked in sweat. Soon to play a bit more Starfield. All I have to do is kill a hundred or so trained veteran mercenaries, then I am done for the day. No problem. Huh.<\/p>\n
