Synopsis: | Gene Krantz, the man in charge of Mission Control, is -as always - Jason Whyte. And our participation (entirely voluntary) is absolutely essential to the progress of the plot. At one point - when all the bosses have left the room - if one of us doesn't step forward to take the headset that communicates with the module, the entire enterprise will surely fail. Yes. That's the way to do it: excellent! Whether we have assigned tasks, volunteer for special tasks, or are (like the press corps) keen observers, we live and feel the unfolding drama. From the time bird-strike causes a gas to vent that's observed from inside the module to which we have video access, problems evolve that threaten first the success of the mission and then the lives of the crew. We truly get to feel that their lives are in our hands, and the message-relaying, calculations, switch-flicking and filter-testing all register as vital elements in the drama. | |||||
