Recordando el tono de tu voz

Evocando tu forma de ser

remember my debate about if there could or should be magazines in Campoestela? Well, my idea now is that since the FTL system cuts you away from radio communications (and, in any case, most communications are difficult to maintain in space, with light-minutes or even light-days of delay), there's not such thing as the ultra-fast internet we're used to in space. So physical media proves itself popular again; courier data spaceships do deliver data, but spacers in general keep computers loaded with stuff to do and watch.

NOW ABOUT MAGAZINES: my idea is that spacer communities are close-knit like big widespread clubs and they have lots to talk about, but for obvious reasons they can't really use social media or blogs, so like many others, Beto's spacer syndicate/union publishes a monthly magazine in paper (gasp!), Astronaútica Popular. The format is not of a short magazine, it's big, like a scientific journal or more obviously issues of old magazines like those my dad had. Sold in every spaceport of the Esteloplatense Confederation, it has everything: announcements by the union and letters to the editors, spaceship reviews, tech tips, lifestyle articles, tales and interviews, personal ads, columns, and lots of drama, because astronauts love to argue, columnists arguing with each other about pointless minuteae of spacesuits over months and months. And that includes Beto.

the idea is a scene where Beto is slumped on the pilot chair reading the latest issue with a mate on hand and muttering "este Ramírez de vuelta escribiendo pelotudeces sobre reactores de ciclo abierto, dale sí mucho delta-v y donde te metés la radiación después?" and then writing a very angry letter to the editor about it

Barrilete con cola de trapo

Adriana Lisnovsky Detrás de la pared asomaba la mano temblorosa. En la calle, otra vez, por fin. Entre los dedos atemorizados, la brasa del cigarrillo titilaba como una diminuta estrella roja. Ahora qué. Buscar al Negro, a quién sino. La brasa entreabría un canal de luz mortecina en la bruma de la noche. La luz por momentos agonizaba, desaparecía, para volver con nuevos destellos dorados. El…

The hardest part of being mad at you is how much i miss you. How much effort it would be, to find something new that felt as awake as loving you did.

[Viernes 28 de Julio, 2023]

Still, I'll find it.

There's an inevitability to love, as there was one to you, to our departure.

No matter how much i miss you, I sincerely hope you never come back.

No te voy a cansar con más poemas.

Digamos que te dije

nubes, tijeras, barriletes, lápices,

y acaso alguna vez

te sonreíste.

Tu interior

Velero de los recuerdos

que recorren tu sentir,

barriletes de colores

que remontan el pensar,

vibrante como la vida

que transforma tu interior.

El colorido de las flores para el día de muertos.

A tempranas horas de la mañana se instalaron las ventas de flores tradicionales para el día de muertos. Los vendedores vienen de diferentes lugares Almolonga, Zunil, Llanos del Pinal.

Rosas, girasoles, flor de muerto, corozo, pino, hojas de eucalipto, coronas de flores, llovizna y otras flores se veían a las afueras del cementerio general.

Ventas de comida, juegos y los tradicionales barriletes no podían hacer falta este día.

More details about the ANCE Johann Sebastian Mastropiero, the dear ship of our heroes Beto, Ragua, Suisini and probably some more.

An HA-116 "Barrilete" class ship. Built by Haedo Astronáutica as a strategic multi-role transport, with production massively ramped during the Machine War to supply remote outposts. Widely licensed and appreciated by its rugged nature, there are thousands still on service, many on civilian hands.

Looks like a mix of the Space Shuttle and the Ilyushin Il-76, but in a retro space opera style (sleek yet all "burned" from lots and lots of atmospheric reentries). The size is about of a C-17 Globemaster, with some more crew space.

The engines are fusion rockets working on as of-yet undiscovered tech, but commonplace by the future of the setting (not more complex than modern jet engines). Once in space, to enter FTL, it docks with a drive ring in orbit (common for this kind of ships)

Full travel time for a standard mission, is about 3-5 days until you need refuelling. It all depends of course where and how you want to go but that's about the max without dangerously stretching it.

It takes off and lands from any kind of airfield, even unpaved ones; in fact, this is what the ship was designed for, to deliver any kind of cargo to any place, no matter how remote. As long as there's some kind of flatish surface, it can land and take off.

The interior is very, very cramped. It has 4 cabins for crew and 8 for passengers (with 16 seats/beds), but they are standard "pod" designs, roughy 2x2m; you get your own pod with two acceleration couches, a TV, a hilariously tiny bathroom, and that's it. Think a capsule hotel with some more space. It's not for luxury travel.

No artificial gravity either. Travel is relatively short so you don't have to worry that much about muscle degradation, but there might be some gym equipment stored around.

The cargo bay is the most spacious place, because that's what's the ship's for. It can fit up to 6 shipping containers or equivalent cargo (depends what's in).

When it's empty, it's fun to hang out there (not like there's much space in the ship)

Like I said, outside it's decorated in a fileteado style, with celeste, silver and red, the colors of the Esteloplatense Confederation. It might have some details reminding old Rioplatenses buses and trucks..

Inside, of course, it feels cozy. Beto, of course, has some malvón flowers, a estamptita of San Carlos de los Astronautas, a Mary statue and a crucifix (everything helps) and a flag of River Plate on the cockpit.

Beto's pod cabin is full of whatever memories and stuff he finds on his travels (all safely stored of course). Suisini's pod is basically a sun-room with crystals for focusing different wavelenghts of light, it kinda has a hippie vibe. Ragua has a bathtub, and she finds it depressingly tacky compared to what she's used to.

Now as for its service story (no dates, assumes all this happens around 600-700 years After Gagarin):

Built for the Machine War, served for years (on the command of Beto's grandfather) on many supply missions in the counterspin front, mostly supplying bases and building sensor outposts, but also in a few hostile landing missions.

Returned to the Confederation Astral Prefecture, served as a reserve transport ship for a few more years.

Refitted for civilian service and sold in an auction of surplus military equipment

Bought by a group of former pilots, including Beto's grandpa, who started a transport cooperative. Refitted and put to work once again.

After a crash, it languishes in an hangar at Aerolito for a few more years.

Beto takes a loan, repairs it and rejoin the coop, and it flies once again.

It should be roughly 40-50 years old. And still flying...
