"Captain Calway," A voice spoke from the con.. "Visual confirmation for the other Six.. All Seven vessels have escaped earths Gravitational field.."
"Thank you, Second Lt. Zimbwa.. Begin countdown for Drone sat releases.."An older white man sat in the command chair as he looked around his bridge, "XO.."
"Captain Releasing SAT/DRONES," Second Lt. Zimbwa smiles to himself.. "Sir.."
"Captain.. All Stations report we are a go," A Hispanic female spoke.. "Lt. Colonel Ferrin.."
A female woman spoke with a slight Isreali Accent, "Commander Wyat.. The Asimov and the Hawkins report no issues.. The Zheng He reports some minor injuries among GS's.. The Norumbega reports the same.. " With a sour face, "The Spacey Mc. Space Space and the Carpet Muncher report minor shifting of supplies.."
"that still irks you doesnt it.. Wyat..The internet chose those names and I insisted they be honored.." Captain Calway's texas accent came through, "Houston.. We are on our way.. Second star to the right on till morning Second Lt."
"God D@#$ it Calway.." A voice came through the speakers, "You were not scheduled to launch till 0700.. "
"Houston.." Captain Calway leans back in his modified spacesuit, "My orders from President Trump were passed down directly to me in the White house.. And I quote, 'Get us to Mars however you see fit Captain..' "
"We were not supposed to launch," Commander Wyat looked at the captain..
"Not at all.. You see a few friends of mine in intelligence dropped me a few lines.. It seems certain members of Congress had planned to stop our launch tomorrow.." Captain Calway hit a few buttons, "This is Captain Calway to the Asimov, Hawkins, Zheng He, Norumbega, Spacey Mc. Space Space, and the carpet Muncher.. We got out of dodge right before we got hit with a federal restraining order. "
"Captain Calway.. They will releave you of duty," The voice from Houston was Pissed off..
"Actually no.. You will find certain crew members Missing," Captain Calway laughed. "They are probably watching us in a bar right now.. Commanders.. Our orders were quiet simple.. We delivery the Supplies and the personnel to mars.. The Enterprise will provide escort till mars.. After the landing of the Two transports andthe two suppliers, the two science ships will launch the satellites around orbit of mars. The enterprise will assist in the survey for six months.. The the crews of the Science ships, with the escort of the Enterprise, will return to earth.."
After a few seconds, Lt. Col. ferrin shakes her head.. "Captain the commanders have all responded.." A smile breaks out on her stern face and she answers back in russian.. After a few seconds, "The Commander of the Carpet Muncher said that houston could.. Sir it translates to.."
"Tell him I agree.." Captain Calway grins, "Tell him I am curious on how far up Pelosi's ass his ship would fit.. Might I suggest we finish the mission first."
Laughter comes from the Lt. col.'s station..
