Journal 3

If I were captain, I would have turned off the rocket engines, which would have kept the EDS ship moving at the same speed as it had been previously.  This would have saved the precious fuel so then the stowaway wouldn’t have had to be ejected before entering the atmosphere in order to land safely. Using this plan might have taken a longer time to reach the destination, but at least the stowaway wouldn’t have had to die. I know I would have to face the government because I broke regulations, but it would have been worth it.  No one would have had to die. In fact, I might have been a hero at least to her parents and brother.
