Exploding Sun Page #2

Synopsis: The world watches in awe as the Roebling Clipper is launched into space. Using state-of-the-art scalar engines to fly around the Moon and back in just hours, the maiden voyage of the first-ever trans-lunar passenger ship is about to make history. Among those on board: First Lady Simone Mathany, space-exploration entrepreneur Steve Roebling, Dr. Denise Balaban, pilot Fiona Henslaw, and a very lucky lottery winner. But while en route, a massive solar flare sparks a cosmic-ray burst that accelerates Aurora's engine and blows the ship away from Earth's orbit. Now out of control, it's hurtling straight for the sun. At Mission Control, along with the desperate President Thomas Mathany, an increasingly anxious team of experts puts a plan into motion - an interception by a shuttle attached to the International Space Station. When that ends in disaster, the Aurora only picks up speed. Now being pulled toward the sun at three percent of the speed of light, it's only a matter of hours before it b

Ah, no. It's not the scalar drive,

it's a special hybrid,

designed to get us into low orbit.

And once we are in low orbit

we'd fire the scalar drive.

John Davis CNJ News.

Can you tell us the difference

betwween a scalar drive

and a regular rocket engine?

That's a good question.

Well a regular rocket engine burns fuel.

So no fuel, no prepulsion,

but the scalar drive

uses solar radiation.

And there's plenty of

that in out in space.

Let me tell ya.

Think of the scalar drive a little

bit like a music amplifier,

but instead of making your

neighbor's tunes louder,

what is does is that

it takes the energy from radiation

and it amps that up.

Take bad music put it into an amplifier

and you get a headache,

take solar radiation,

you put it into the scalar drive

and you get massive exceleration.

Cindy Powers, NTX News.

How fast are you talking about?

One thousand

three hundred miles a minute.

Which is about one ten thousanth of

the speed of light. And that's a...

well that's ah pretty damn fast.

Isn't it?

The trip around the moon

and back today should take

just under seven hours.

Dr. Bakus. Is scalar technology safe?

It's about as safe as your drive

out here today Jeff. Maybe safer.

Thank you Dr. Bakus.

Thank you. -Well done.

Joan? She just walked in.

Ahh family? Parents?

I don't know.

Nourhan

Let's get her to medical.

Just make sure she's ok.

What's your update?

We get a ton of rice in a couple

of days but it's crap quality.

Ugh. I really don't care.

Just so long as they bring in

the water purification tablets.

Ah, they're gone.

Mehrzad's men had them

hijacked off the aid supply trucks.

High energy biscuits too.

Did you text him?

Can we set up a Skype call?

It's really hard to save a

thousand of his starving people

while he's stealing our supplies.

I guess if you're a war lord selling

aid supplies on the black market

you don't care about killing

off a few of your countrymen.

Clearly. Just wish

he'd steal the crap he wants.

Ladies and gentlemen,

please join with me

and help welcome a true

legend of the US Spae Program,

Commander Don Wincroft.

Did you know Wincroft was coming?

Are you kidding me?

On a pissed off scale of 1 to 10?

Nineteen. -Ok.

Thank you. Thank you.

Good morning everyone.

A special good morning to

you our civillian astronauts.

In a few hours they will do

what most people only dream of.

Break free from

the earth's grasp and fly.

He sure talks pretty.

You take with you all the earth's

best hopes, dreams and ambitions.

God speed.

Crew and passengers

of the Roebling Clipper.

When I first found out that

I was picked from all of

Virginia to go on this flight,
