updated May 30, 2018 11:21PM
Description:
<i>Editor's Note: This "story" is a series of scribbles by a space traveler of the future, whose intent was apparently to record her first trip.

I have placed this under the catch-all "Literature & Fiction" genre since it contains nothing of scientific or even journalistic value.</i>
