Most experiments were dropped because they failed--and some because they worked too well!

Space. Ships. Pirates. Space-ships and Space-pirates! Containing scenes of mild and not so mild peril! Comments welcome. Constructive good, bad and even indifferent comments, may gain their creators names a moment of brief immortality within future additions- (Disclaimer: if they can be pronounceable).
Added Chapter 3

This is a continuation of the series - there is a prologue, but I recommend reading Books One - Three first. There was a rocket, but the occupant wasn't a baby. A young man (Cal) is the sole survivor of his planet, crash landing in Kansas in 1984. Cal is found by a farmer and his daughter, and learns what it is to be human. NOTE: Any names and/or other similarities between people, living, dead, or fictional are purely coincidental (maybe). Posts every Week.

A whole bunch of updates across most of my stories going up today fixing grammar and spelling errors. They're queued up and should be processed through later today at some point. Thanks to everyone whose sent me corrections.

Space is huge and governments control as much of the space around and between their systems as they can, but there are still a very small parts of space not claimed by any government. Very few people are born on the ships travelling between the stars, and even fewer are born in the unclaimed areas of space, but that one thousandth of one percent who are so born are called Space Born and have some very odd citizenship rights and duties.

It starts with cadet Roger, urm, nicking a study spool for use in a competitive exam -- but that leads all of our cadets into a fight, and when they're caught at that, a trial. In the midst of the trial they get assigned to duty on a Top Secret Projectile Project, and things go wrong there in ways at once related and impossible to connect. Someone is causing real menace to roost in the cadets' lives, and the worst is still ahead...
