Home at last

Released from captivity, I fired up Dasher-1 and launched from the remote firebase. I made good speed and had a personal best on my return journey – 2:16. The highway was dry, traffic was modest and I was able to maintain orbit velocity the whole way.

It’s good to be home and I’m looking forward to sleeping in my own bed tonight.

Later, Dude.

Didn't orbit velocity get you pulled over a few weeks back? Was is Warp 4 or Warp 5?

I try to be in the top 5 percentile of speed, not the top 0.5 percentile. So far I've been lucky.
