Deep out in the outskirts of known space, there is a flash of light. Shooting out like a beam from the depths of slipspace, an oblong rocket sails ahead. Now in normal space, the pilot slams on the airbrakes to slow to a reasonable speed. Now headed to a mid-size yellow sun late in its life, the pilot relaxes for a moment. Perhaps a moment too long. Experts generally agree that if the captain had done a quick scan of the area, he might have noticed the meteor rocketing right into his path. The chunk of rock, almost as big as the spaceship itself, slammed hard on the rocket's starboard side, blowing chunks of metal away and scratching off the logo, Hocotate Freight Co.
Alarms shrieked and buzzed in the pilot's HUD and display monitors. The captain, now frantic, peered up his bubble canopy to find a planet. He saw a large blue marble in his path with plenty of liquid and a thick atmosphere. Having a no where else to go, the pilot prepared what was left of his craft for impact. Soon enough, his rocket was melting away in the atmosphere. Piece by piece, all of his important pieces of machinery came out of his now skeleton of a spaceship, slowly falling to the ground. The pilot closed his eyes when he saw the dense forest below, and passed out on impact.
