BRAXTON TURNS 11 !!!!!!!!
















Braxton turned 11 on Oct. 27th. For his b-day party he chose to go to the Utah Space Center in Pleasant Grove.















The boys had to make sure they didn't upset the Romulins or war could break out and Earth could be destroyed.
They were excellent astronauts! They had detailed instructions before entering the simulator.































The boys were able to ride the USS PHOENIX simulator and go on a mission and study a supernova.


Here's some information about their trip and what each passenger was resposible for. Not only was it fun, but the boys were able to learn about Space also.

USS PHOENIX: The Phoenix was designed in 2359 to have the power of a warship while having the expandability of a science ship or diplomatic vessel. It is equipped with many unique weapons and equipment, like the pulsating phasers. It is also one of two ships in the Federation to be equipped with a working cloaking device.
The Phoenix is currently on assignment in sector 74, assisting with border patrols.
Captain: BRAXTON-The Captain is responsible for the ship, the safety of the crew, and completing the mission. The captain should be a leader, able to think quickly and make decisions, able to give orders, and have a loud, clear voice.
First Officer: BRYCE
The First Officer is second in command, and assists the Captain in anything he/she might need. The First Officer is also in charge of the sensors and cloaking device systems.
Tactical: ALEX
The Tactical officer is in charge of the defence of the ship. They are in charge of the weapons and shields as well as security teams and internal sensors.
Engineer: ZACH
Should any systems on the ship become broken, the Engineer would be the one to fix them. The Engineer also controls the main reactor and distributes power.
Helm: OAKLEY
The Helm officer controls the engines on the ship. They are in charge of the warp engines, the impulse engines, and thrusters, and controls the ships destination.
Operations: BRODY
The Operations officer is in charge of the communications systems. They also control the transporters and tractor beam.



The trip was a success and the boys returned back to Earth safely...
