text: They had finally done it. Earth Space Agency, the only and most powerful space agency on the Earth in the year 2121, had finally discovered a way to travel faster than the speed of light. They could now travel to faraway places never known to mankind. They could explore everything. All the possibilities were open and today was the day when they were finally going to run their first faster-than-light ship. The ship in theory was perfect. Today was their first flight to test it. They had previously tested it using bots, it worked fine. But today, it was gonna be a human. Also the bots were never sent out of the solar system. But today’s destination was a planet far out in the unknown universe. 10 planets were shortlisted for the destination and this was the one selected. The name? RS-210 The information about this planet was not known much. The only thing that was known is they had received a signal from the planet and that alone was enough to select the planet. The people to be sent were a team of 5 people. It consisted of three men and two women. Captain Mark was the commander. Joe, Philip, Laura and Sansa were the rest four. At the launch site The four crewmembers had a talk with their families for the last time before launch. All of their families were very sad but the crewmembers assured them that they’ll surely return. They had so much faith in their ship. One by one all the crewmembers boarded the ship. The ship’s was then locked and the launch processes were initiated. Captain Mark checked all the ship stats and assured the control centre. The control centre then checked all other things and the countdown began. 3...2...1... and boom the ship took flight and within a fraction of a second, they disappeared. The journey was about 5 minutes long. Wait, what did you expect? A view of the flight? C’mon it’s faster than the speed of light. The whole world waited for 5 minutes staring at the counter on their screens. Each and every soul on Earth waited for 5 minutes. 3...2...1 The counter came to and end. The silence for the first two-three seconds was like never before seen. All the people looked at the screens, at each other but did not utter a sound. “Flight control, do you copy.” “Yes, Captain Mark congratulations.” And suddenly the whole centre burst out in joy. They had successfully did their first faster than light flight. “What do you see Captain?” “I see a beautiful red planet. Looks much like Mars” Slowly the captain moved the ship towards the planet and somewhat tried to circle the planet, observing it from all sides. They began circling the planet but as soon as they reached the other side of the planet, the crew fell silent. “uhhh, flight?” “Yes captain?” “We might have a problem here” Saying this, the captain, relayed the visuals to the control centre and suddenly the control centre was dead silent. What the crew was seeing was a humoungous ship, nearabout 100 times the size of their own. It was all illuminated with bright lights. It was the same doughnut shaped colony concept that we had been trying to make. It was a colony. A alien colony. There were capsules flying all over and around it. The crew was just awestruck. They couldn’t believe their eyes. Slowly the Captain tried to move his ship around, but suddenly there were two drones coming their way. They were small drones, about the size of a bucket. They looked way more futuristic than what we had here. The crew didn’t move an inch. The drones approached the ship. They came nearer and nearer. It turned out that they weren’t normal drones. They were able to travel through things. The drones straightaway entered the ship and flew to the crew members. One of the drones went to Mark and slowly a headset came out of the drone. The drone instructed him to wear it. Similar headsets were provided to each crew member. After that, the drones just floated in midair. They didn’t move at all. The crew members were puzzled. Captain Mark immediately relayed the audio the the control centre so whatever the audio is gets to Earth. Suddenly the headsets starting playing a recording. The audio quickly reached Earth and was played at the control centre. It was instantly telecasted to all T.V. Channels too. The whole of mankind was listening to the same audio at the same time. It was a pre-recorded clip. It lasted for exactly 3 minutes and 32 seconds. Every person sat still. The crew had a puzzled look on their face after the clip ended. The control centre guys couldn’t believe anything. The drones took back the headsets from the crewmembers heads and started going back. After a few moments, the Captain looked at all the members and simply closed his eyes for a minute. “WHAT THE FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!” The captain shouted. “I peed my pants after seeing the drones and this is what they give us, huh?” “This is gonna get a billion views man!” the alien teenager said. “Yes Rickrolling the inventors of rickroll whole civilization at a time.” The other replied.
