David Trek, today.

Well, I decided to start my "David Trek" adventures again. This time, I thought it would be interesting to write about planet missions instead of just writing about visiting various stars:

Personal log, 210906.02--We arrived at Venus the other night and did some orbital scans. Today, Collins, Gene, and myself went on three separate shuttle missions to do close orbital scans. All our scans had the same results--the atmosphere of Venus is too turbulent for incursion by shuttle. Not only that, but the surface is too hot for any away missions. I am pondering having Arnold design some disposable probes so we can get a better look at the planet without risking any personnel.

Today, Larry let me have the day off. I have kept myself busy: I did some sweeping in the kitchen and living room area. I hiked over to the local Menards (a home improvement store) and bought a surge protector to plug my laptop into. I read some books and played "Spider-Man: Friend or Foe" on my PS2. I also did some online job-hunting. I saw an interesting ad about working at home, so I responded to it. It would be nice to do something job-wise that didn't require me to dress up or commute.
