The
Suida Viarum took longer to notice
the asteroid, as they were more intent on studying the station and
tennis_borg before them than the space behind them. When they did spot it, however, Captain Carradine immediately hailed
starbase668.
"The asteroid has received permission to assume a parking orbit alongside the station,"
starbase668's commander informed him. "Don't ask."
"You're being visited by a rock?" Carradine gaped incredulously. "You guys must lead interesting lives out here. We'll leave your friend the rock alone. Suida Viarum out."
