Summary: "An Introduction to Practical Astronautics" is a mandatory courseset for Starfleet cadets. For Carol Marcus, it's only rocket science.
Notes: The title is from Pink Floyd's "Learning to Fly", and this is the third in that series, a companion to
Gaila's and
McCoy's. With thanks to
elanya for giving part of it a once-over - any mistakes or nonsensical bits are entirely mine. This is dedicated to
igrockspock for being responsible for a lot of stories about amazing Starfleet ladies, either directly or as instigator and temptress.
There was always going to be an explosion.
