As we leave S-57 behind, we approach the border of one spiral arm in the Milky Way. Most of these boundaries are patrolled by border control officers. These officers roam the perimeter and keep detailed records of each vessel found crossing between the different constellations.
"Drone vessel and guardian escort, this is officer Daniel speaking. You are now leaving sector Alpha Centauri. Please identify yourselves and the nature of your mission. Over."
Commander Sarah responded in turn and followed all the necessary protocol procedures to clear the border. However, I thought I heard her mutter something like, "These border control guys keep getting younger and younger."
Officer Daniel finally said, "All clear. You may proceed. But keep your eyes and ears opened. I hope you have a safe and swift journey to the Vega System."
