When I signed up for Starfleet, I figured I'd be seeing a lot more stars.
[ there's a pause and then a quiet sound that veers just along the edge of embarassment before ]
You know, I used to say I'd see the entire Argo Navis. It's this giant constellation--or it was a constellation, before it got broken up into six different parts. Six parts of the ship Argo from Greek myth, I bet it was something to see, if you could swing it. You can't even see all of it unless you head out to a certain latitude point, so I guess when I was little I thought getting closer to the stars themselves would be a good way to skip that step.
[ another pause. there's the tap of fingers along a countertop. sulu's shrugging, but it's a voice transmission, so. ]
Just strange to think it's not out there, even if this ship did have windows. Hard to gauge how far we've gone without...well, windows and stars.
