Only four more days left until the end of Asteropolis! It has been a remarkable experience. So many interesting humans and other entities to meet and get to know and, in a few egregious cases, kick out the airlock.
A great deal of progress was made, especially in the diplomatic arena. Meetings with all the Ambassadors from the various worlds were held and concluded successfully and in secret, with semi-satisfactory outcomes for all concerned. Wars were averted, alliances strengthened, and a general agreement forged to the effect that Earth will continue to be excluded from the Galactic Union as long as it continues to be led by ghastly coprophagic psychopaths, especially you-know-who. Representatives of the military and the shadow-government signaled their unofficial approval via the usual covert signs and deniable omens.
Meanwhile, Doctor Mantis, in his laboratory over at the Little Glass Shack, has successfully concluded his experimental summoning of a Magonian Mystery Module, to the intense excitement of our entire crew. Attempts to communicate have failed so far, but we have every confidence that success is within our grasp. All are resolved to make it happen before the end of the show. Good luck, Doctor!
Here are a few random snapshots.

| Doctor Mantis is thrilled beyond repair. Good work, Doc! And good luck in the rehab! |

| Rory tries out a new Bubble Universe; note the Jet Dirigible overhead -- an idea both ahead of AND behind its time! |

| Apropos of nothing: the new Supplicant's Desk in the Spire House is a real beauty, eh? |
