Reader Description

Jenna and Beeby are the only people awake on the spaceship Alpha. Jenna makes a decision that leads the ship into all kinds of danger.

After you have completed the Reader

Imagine Jenna and Beeby weren't able to escape down the wormhole. How could they stop the crew of Star Scorpion from firing on them or trying to board their ship to steal the platinum. For example, they could send a message to the Star Scorpion saying that there has been a deadly outbreak of space measles. Write the message that the children would send.
