What the hell do you mean
it just disappeared?

:35:56
That's it, Captain.

One second it was on the scope,
the next it was gone.

Aye, aye, Captain.

Hendricksson: What are we doing? What in God's name are we doing Chuck?

Chuck Elbarak: We don't know if it’s true about Green, I mean we just saw...

Hendricksson: We saw bullshit is what we saw. You know as well as I do they can send us anything they want. Hell, they can make a goddamn hologram out of a dog and pony show.

Chuck Elbarak: That kid doesn't know policy, he’s a grunt...

Hendricksson: Get your head outta the lilacs man.

Chuck Elbarak: What do you expect me to believe here? That we're being dumped just like that? That twenty years of death and a stand against the horror up here has turned into a fucking galactic gold rush? Why do they keep sending us provisions? What do you think, that they're waiting for us to grow old and die up here so they can... carry on running the universe?

Hendricksson: Yes.

Chuck Elbarak: Well fuck you, I don't buy it!

Hendricksson: Well wake up man! We are betrayed here brother. We are beached! We're stuck, you heard that kid! Greens been shit-canned and this whole goddamn place is a lie! I mean, they just can't cut us off up here, because too many families on earth would raise hell about it and they sure as hell ain't gonna take us back there! If we sound off about this, nobody's gonna fight their fucking war for them. So they're just gonna let us roll on and on and on up here... until we're dead and we ain't ever getting off here Chuck. I'll tell you something else, Marshall Richard Cooper and his NEB command knows it goddamn well too, and that’s why he sent us a goddamn map! And your single, solitary NEB grunt came over here and got his ass shot to stop this thing! They know its pointless now!

- Can they still take off?
- We hope so.

You are the one

That is my family up there,

Guess what, guys?

It's time to embrace the horror.

I'm not sure how long this has been going on, because I don't think I've written about it for various reasons, but I have been having a lot of thoughts about me on the surface of Mars. But my thoughts have been always about the future, as though it was something I could expect to do in the future.

I started thinking that I discovered life on Mars. Some kind of sandbugs. And that explains a lot too. Something about sandkings or sand devils. Something about holes bored into the walls of a gully or cliff, as though by creatures.

I was writing about something like this a few months ago. I was writing about the psychological effects of trying to work with ground control to solve a problem while on a space craft that is a long ways from Earth. I thought those thoughts were an indication that I would someday go to Mars and this current experience was a form of preparation for it. Now in the past few days I have started thinking that I have already been to Mars.

The "quietness." I think I know what "the quietness" means. I have these memories, with some kind of vague anxiety associated with them from what I remember as being on the Taylor. The was these times that some machinery would stop running and it suddenly got very quiet. You weren't really aware of all the noise until it stopped. And there was a brief period when the noise stopped and you were wondering why it got so quiet and then the alarms started going off. As I remember it, it was the engines stopping that caused the period of quietness.

That completes my final report|until we touch down.
We're on full automatic,|in the hands of the computers.
I've tucked my crew in for the long sleep,|and I'll be joining them soon.
In less than an hour we'll finish|our sixth month out of Cape Kennedy.
Six months in deep space.|By our time, that is.
According to Dr Hasslein's theory of time in|a vehicle travelling nearly the speed of light,
the Earth has aged|nearly 700 years since we left it,
while we've aged hardly at all.
It may be so.|This much is probably true.
The men who sent us on this journey|are long since dead and gone.
You who are reading me now|are a different breed.
I hope a better one.
I leave the 20th century with no regrets.|But one more thing...
If anybody's listening, that is.
Nothing scientific. It's purely personal.
Seen from out here,|everything seems different.
Time bends.|Space is boundless.
It squashes a man's ego.
I feel lonely.
That's about it.
Tell me, though...
Does man, that marvel of the universe,
that glorious paradox|who has sent me to the stars,
still make war against his brother,|keep his neighbour's children starving?
Are you all right?
Stewart?
Stewart?
We're in the soup.|She's sinking. Dodge, read the atmosphere.
Landon, get out a last signal.
- What signal?|- To Earth. That we've landed.
The air's OK.
Blow the hatch before we lose all our power.
- It's no use. The power's gone.|- Forget it. Abandon ship.
She's sinking.
Going...
Going...
Gone.
OK. We're here to stay.
Well, where are we?|Do you have any notion, skipper?
We're 320 light years from Earth
on an unnamed planet in orbit|around a star in the constellation of Orion.
Is that close enough for you?
- That could be Bellatrix.|- It's too white for Bellatrix.
You didn't have time to read the tapes.|So you really don't know, do you?
What went wrong?|We weren't programmed to land in the water.

Cole "Stinger" Taylor

Stinger was the CAG of the Battlestar Pegasus when it was first encountered in the episode "Pegasus". He accompanies Admiral Helena Cain to the Battlestar Galactica and pilots her Raptor.

Stinger is a humorless officer who believes that Galactica officers are inferior, like many other Pegasus crew members. He also believes that Lee "Apollo" Adama was given the position of CAG because of his father, Admiral Adama.

No change. The minute you open the door,|he goes into his act.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Praying_Mantis

Operation Praying Mantis

Operation Praying Mantis was an April 18, 1988 attack by U.S. naval forces in retaliation for the Iranian mining of the Persian Gulf and the subsequent damage to an American warship.

On April 14, the guided missile frigate USS Samuel B. Roberts struck a mine while deployed in the Persian Gulf as part of Operation Earnest Will, the 1987-88 convoy missions in which U.S. warships escorted reflagged Kuwaiti oil tankers to protect them from Iranian attacks. The explosion put a 25-foot hole in the Roberts' hull and nearly sank it. The crew saved their ship with no loss of life, and Roberts was towed to Dubai on April 16.

After the mining, U.S. Navy divers recovered other mines in the area. When the serial numbers were found to match those of mines seized along with the Iran Ajr the previous September, U.S. military officials planned a retaliatory operation against Iranian targets in the Persian Gulf.

The battle, the largest for American naval forces since World War II, sank two Iranian warships and three armed speedboats. It also marked the first anti-ship surface-to-surface missile engagement in U.S. Navy history.

The attack by the U.S. helped pressure Iran to agree to a ceasefire with Iraq later that summer, ending the eight-year conflict between the Persian Gulf neighbors.

In June, the first launch of an advanced Pegasus XL from the L-1011 Stargazer carrier plane ended in failure; the cause has been identified as aerodynamic problems due to faulty hydro simulations (no wind tunnel testing was done).




http://www.satobs.org/seesat/Jun-1996/0230.html

"*Stargazer* is a specially modified Lockheed Martin L-1011 TriStar jumbo jet that's based at Meadows Field in Bakersfield," stated Jim Spellman, executive director for the National Space Society's Western Spaceport Chapter in Kern, Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo county.

"It was named by OSC team members in honor of the first 'starship' commanded by fictional character Captain Jean-Luc Picard from the *Star Trek: The Next Generation* television series," Spellman added. The aircraft serves as the "first stage" by carrying the Pegasus XL rocket up to its 40,000 foot release point over the Pacific Ocean near Vandenberg AFB in Santa Barbara county.

"Upon release from *Stargazer* and a five-second freefall, the Pegasus XL's solid propellant rocket ignites

I had the strongest feeling this morning that I don't know who I am. Then it just clicked back. It just turned off. I think it was something someone on tv said while they were listening to me. I find myself thinking about that part in that 1998 Star Trek movie where Data realizes he is missing some memory chips. And I heard someone just the other day saying something similar. I keep my headphones on to block out stuff like that, but......what am I missing? What other clues are there that I've missed? Are people telling me this all to help? Do I need help?
