None of this is my fault. Yes, I lied. I had to lie. The prisoner had to believe we were on Earth and not a moon around Saturn. These weapons we were developing were not allowed on Earth.” --Solstice 31 Incident Investigation Testimony Transcript: Thomas McDonald, Senior Research and Development Engineer, Material Sciences, Artificial Gravity Specialist. <<<>>> Tom McDonald stood on the grav-plate apron just outside the hangar. He hated putting on a pressure suit. He always wanted to take a piss and scratch his nose as soon as it was sealed. Without it, though, he would not step off the apron that maintained a perfect 1G feel. Some people liked low gravity. Not Tom. Tom hated it. Which was odd, considering he was an expert in Artificial Gravity (AG) technology. The moon of Saturn called Rhea, where the R&D facility was located, had full facility AG. It must have cost a mint. He turned and looked back at the enormous opening to the hangar behind him. Well, at least it appeared to be open.
