At 12:22 hrs on July 19th 2016, the manned spacecraft 10.000 Suns sent a distress signal from the inner edge of Earth s atmosphere. Communication with the shuttle was lost shortly afterwards. Fragments of the ship have been recovered on the west coast of Scotland, but pilot Bryan Kessler of Cologne is currently missing in action. Black box recordings have been retrieved and will be archived to regulation standard vinyl and digital audio encapsulations.
