   For 2950, the Intergalactic Aerospace Expo is continuing its tour of Stanton, landing on the snowy slopes of Microte. And while the weather outside may be frightful, the offerings at the Tobin Center are nothing short of delightful. Welcome to Whitley's Guide. Here in the consolidated Outland Pavilion, they're gearing up to unveil Silas's allnew Nomad. A ship that couples a welcome dash of unconventional design with bare bones, no frrills performance. under the hood. I had the powers that be at Whitley's arrange some hands-on time

   As I spooled up the quantum drive one last time, I knew I'd returned to civilization, a changed man, and that I'd never needed a shower so badly in my entire life. And here we are, Jimmy, safe and sound at IAE 2950. Now, it looks like they're getting ready for the official announcement. So, uh, take over, would you, Jimmy? I've got to get over to the VIP lounge before the open bar closes. Back in 2944, we aimed to reshape the dream of space flight. Since then, much has changed.
