- Gentlemen, this is a rough design of our ship. Now, instead of taking off in the customary manner, straight up, we will conserve fuel by using a mile-long slide to give us impetus.

- For this slide, the ship will be cradled on a rocket-propelled undercarriage, which will be automatically released at the end of the run.

- At approximately this point, the wing engines will be turned on, and here, the full power of all engines will be used to carry us out of the gravitational pull of the Earth.

- We will then be in free ascent, and no power will be used until we reach the gravitational pull of Zyra, at which time the ship will be operated as a normal aircraft.

- Similar rocket ships are also being constructed in other countries.

- The project needs you because you are fine technicians.

The silence, an eerie foretelling of the destruction to come at 1:00, the hour of doom.
