St Drenadune, Telewest (Telewest Today)

The 16th of January will long live in the memory of Telewestians. At exactly 19:00, Milwamber, supreme ruler of Telewest, sat in his luxuary box and gazed skyward, watching the fruits of many years hard work and billions of bloodcoins. Today was the successful launch of Titan 2. Over 60 million people watched the launch at home with trepidation after Titan 2's predecessor Titan 1 exploded less than 2 miles from its launchpad.
Titan 2's primary mission is to simply orbit the globe for 4 days and hopefully land back here at St Drenadune Airforce base. Its seven crew,( Commander John Harford, Mission Specialist Janet Frinten, Mission Specialist Frank L Renford Jr, Mission Specialist Grant Wanten, Mission Specialist Helen Rogers, Mission Specialist Timothy Howard and Pilot Simon Michaels) will guide Titan 2 around the globe and perform menial tasks to see how space travel affects their daily lives.
Milwambers eventual goal is to colonise parts of the solar system, starting with the moon as he told us earlier today " Space is the last refuge of a dying race, we need to get off this rock as soon as possible and I plan to be living on the moon or mars within the next 20 years". Strong words from our illustrious leader. The question does arise however: Is this just another way for Milwamber to waste our tax money? Leading scientist Elric von Thrinburg doesn't think so. "For all our leaders faults I think he's hit this one right on the head, this planet is not going to sustain us forever and we will need somewhere to retreat to once we've suitably damaged Mother Earth to the point of no return"
So there you have it, Telewest are finally in the space race, we'll all sit and pray that Titan 2 arrives home safely on the 20th - Godspeed.
