The inaugural flight of C832 was supposed to be heavily emphasized, but who could outshine the imminent first flight of the Storm? A nuclear-powered spacecraft is far more intriguing than a passenger jet.
The passenger jet's successful maiden flight yesterday, followed promptly by a spaceflight mission while the excitement still lingered, was quite logical.
With less than six hours to the first flight of Storm, the launch tower was getting ready to load it with liquid hydrogen fuel for the nuclear engine.
Even though the weather was not particularly good, Storm still managed to stand out conspicuously.
When it was decided to launch before Labor Day, the base unanimously agreed to give Storm a special paint job.
