Double-posting to try and get back on a "do it after midnight instead of before" schedule, which works so much more smoothly.

The great mining ship Redshift drifted on the edges of the asteroid belt. On the bridge, the captain and the first mate were discussing their course.
Outside, there was a flash of light. A red station wagon appeared amid the asteroids, wheels spinning uselessly in the void. A man and a woman were visible through the windshield. They seemed to be arguing. The woman had a map unfolded on her lap. The car drifted across the viewscreen, then disappeared in another white flash.
The captain spoke first. “I didn’t see it if you didn’t.”
The first mate nodded in agreement.
