Chapter 25

The next few weeks were ones of constant activity for John and his team. The most opportune time to make a journey from Earth to Mars occurs every twenty-six months, when the two planets are closest to each other. That would make it the quickest trip. The ideal time was approaching rapidly; in forty-one days, the position of the planets would be ideal. Now, granted, John’s team was not bound by this deadline as much as a team that would be using a “normal” spaceship. And, of course, the reason that this deadline was not as crucial for John’s team was due to the gravity engine they used for propulsion. They could reach speeds that were far faster than a normally powered ship. Still, so as not to push the envelope of completing the ship too far, they wanted to initially get as much done as they could in the shortest possible time frame. For something as precise as space flight, they did not want to be short on time; they wanted to have the luxury of checking and rechecking all of the details so that the chance of a mishap was nearly as nonexistent as possible. The more time they had, the more they could reduce this chance. And they did not want to wait another twenty-six months for their trip.
