Maybe judge the teacher for not believing the government would deceive us so.

This was, again, nothing something Jasper had paid that much attention to. If it was faked, whatever. Let people fake what they wanted. Secrets were meant to be kept, after all.

It was the Mars landing that was faked. But, oddly, the Jupiter one was not.

"The only way this would work is if the government had the magic power of convincing everyone to keep their mouth shut for decades," Kathy declared. "Entirely unlikely."

Re: Discuss worstofalltime July 22 2015, 20:28:31 UTC

"And the Soviet Union who would have loved to embarrass them," Wash added.

Re: Discuss spin_kick_snap July 22 2015, 20:34:02 UTC

"Exactly," Kathy said, folding her arms across her chest. "The Soviet Union had every reason to say we were lying. If they had even the tiniest shred of evidence, they would have leaped on it. Why do people believe in this stuff?"

Please tell her you had insights into that, Wash.

Face was dressed soberly as he stood at the front of the class, a deeply serious expression on his face.

"Gentlebeings," he said. "Today I bring you a deeply unsettling tale. A story of talent, untimely death, and lingering mysteries, as we try to uncover the fate of one of the galaxy's most brightly shining stars."

He fiddled with a control and a still of a young, adorable boy appeared on the screen behind him, anyone paying attention may have felt some vague sense of familiarity. "Born on Pantolomin, Garik Loran was one of the foremost child stars of his era." Again, those paying attention may have picked up on some similarites here. Subtle ones. "Even from a young age, his obvious talent, abundant charm, and work ethic were clear outstripping most of his peer, leaving some, such as one Tetran Cowell completely in the dust, and elevating even the most dire material. Which given he was working mainly in Imperial Propaganda holodramas, says more for his skill than I ever could.

"Seriously." WASH REGRETTED PLACING HIS TRUST IN YOU, FACE.

Re: Student Presentation - Face gavegoodface July 22 2015, 20:40:56 UTC

Face looked at Wash, all innocence. "Seriously."

The real conspiracy about space that concerned Wash was about Agent Georgia. Why wouldn't anyone tell him what happened?!

Re: Talk to the Teacher/TA bestatmystery July 22 2015, 15:40:14 UTC

Lottie's had been awesome, thank you.

Though she was now kind of wishing she'd done something on the Bielefeld Conspiracy. Because who didn't love entire towns being written off as imaginary?
