In Deep Space… the trials of Planet Opera

By Paul Cecil | Published November 19, 2008

Opera Journal, Star Date 19112008:
There's been trouble in cyberspace… The Community was in darkness for a day and a night.

In Deep Space, something stirs

The Battle Cruiser glides over the red planet Opera


It hangs silently in space

Far below, the inhabitants of Opera struggle in the darkness and the chaos

And behold, a portal opens and a beam of light shines forth

And so it was that normal service was resumed. Changed, and somehow strangely enhanced with a new skin and a gigabyte of storage.

    Mark, the downtime caught me out this time, but I'm really plesed with the massive amount of extra storage. I'd virtually used all mine up (and they'd even reset the clock for me once!)

    Why Words, do you watch Star Trek? :alien: 😉 LOL, great post. And I'm very happy to have a gig of storage now! That's far more than I was expecting them to give us.

    LOL, I like the better parts of TNG. Thanks 🙂 – that's the Scraggly Vixen. After two years, I thought it was time for a change!
