*CGN Report Emblem Flashes on the screen.*
Bram Stroker: Hello, I'm Bram Stroker.
Tonight, we bring you a news story about a First in our nation.
As of 2:00pm today, the first manned Rocket our nation has made, blasted off the launch pad and made CG history as beeing the first of many space exploration missions.
On board the rocket, two of our freashly trained Astronots rode the piller of fire out of our atmosphere and into the dark depths of space.
Their cargo? A Geo-synced orbiter attached to a carbon-nanotube-composite ribbon. Once the Geo-Synched Orbiter is in place, the ribbon will be droped via controled decent back to earth and be connected to the ground, creating a so-called "space elevator"*.
