Quote:Well, here's the thing. Sending Midnight out to the Miranda's last known position is certainly feasible, but... what's the point? Midnight can't carry enough for a resupply, she sure as hell doesn't have the space for passengers... it's like sending an F-16 out to rescue the crew of a foundering fishing boat; sure it can get to the scene faster than a chopper or Coast Guard cutter, but all it can *do* is orbit overhead while watching the boat sink.
I like where you're going with the Mayan Calender idea. granted, getting out to the Miranda could be trouble as far as fuel is concerned. Perhaps if he had a pair of external tanks, then I'd guess it'd be do-able. Just have to see what Fnord thinks.
I suppose if that's your kink you could go with it, but I'm gonna need more convincing on that point before I rubberstamp.---
