Graptolite - Attack Ships On Fire



17:10.08S 157:59.75E 700 miles east of Cairns, Monday 28th July 02:00

There is no wind at all now apart from some tiny flurries that makes the wind direction indicator wander around lazily. The night sky is very clear and we have the unusual effect of stars being reflected on the glassy surface of the sea. I don't expect I will ever get to travel between the stars but this has got to be a similar effect. On the other hand...

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe; attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tan Hauser Gate. All those....moments....will be lost....in time....like tears....in the rain....time to die.

I'll bet that last paragraph confused you, unless you recognized some lines by Rutger Hauer, from the movie 'Blade Runner'. It has no particular significance. But I like it.
