So last night the three of us including Bane, Nate from Mountain West Paranormal, and the 14 year old engineering genius Jayden traveled from the Salt Lake Valley down to Pleasant Grove, UT to have the chance at a real scifi space mission. 
The Alpine School district is home to the Christa Mcauliffe Space Education Center.  They run space flight simulators for the kids to teach them about space flight as well as with private parties.  Author Jaleta Clegg is one of the many amazing people that work at this center and since meeting her she has always talked about this space camp/flight simulator she helps run.  Well last night we had the chance to fly a mission for the USS Odyssey.  Malak to command of the ship as its Captain, A Guy Named Joe was Number one.  I was at the Helm and running communications, Nate was tatical, Jayden was our engineer, and Bane did the scanners and everything else he could to help including transporter controls!
We had a great time flying the Odyssey through the mission, some of us were flying all over the place like a crazy mad scientist!  Others were overwhelmed with the responsibility of command!  In the end though we were floating in space with no Impulse or warp engines,  No Weapons,  Shields on Full, and infected with an Alien virus.  Thanks to the mad last second and I do mean last second, Bane literally transported an active torpedo in our ship that was one second from blowing up over to the enemy ship to save the day and defeat the eveil ghost ship!
At the end of the day we were able to say we hadn't died and defeated the mission.  If you haven't done this before and you are a huge Star Wars or Star Trek Geek you have to try this out!!
