Flint looked over the readings they had at this distance at the impact point on the comet. The outlook from the readings was not looking good. It was likely that given the combined speed and gravitational forces of the stellar body, the poor bastard probably never felt a thing.
"A potent reminder to be careful" Said the Commander from behind, before asking for more details on the particle stream anomaly.
While this was going on, Flint kept his eyes trained on the remaining fliers. The main screen showed just moving dots. But the more he watched, the more he could see almost imperceptible differences in how each dot moved. How each pilot handled themselves. Some changing places midfield, others remaining in their positions. The lead dots so close, it was like they were only one pixel apart.
In his spare time, he'd been working on his set up of Glennis' cockpit, and practising in the holodeck on some of the Federations most renowned courses. Now watching as just this one race played out, he understood this was going to be harder probably than any of them had actually thought.
But in his head the music to that inspirational Starfleet recruitment film was already playing.
