My name is Rainbow Dash. I am one of the newest members of the Wonderbolts, Equestria's air-stunt flight group. We do all sorts of crazy tricks in the air, and I was a daredevil before I even joined. Little did I know that my life was about to change forever.
One morning, I was coming to the lobby of my cloudominium where a postal pegasus was waiting for me.
"Mrs. Dash, you have a letter from Princess Luna.", he told me.
I took the letter, opened it, and began to read what her majesty had written. My eyes grew large. I knew about the upcoming space travel program, and I wanted to join as soon as possible. However, I never thought that I was going to help with an early stage.
"Dear Rainbow Dash,
Celestia and I have recently approved the start of an experimental facility that will test different types of equipment for space travel. You have been nominated to participate in their first test. It is some type of suit that will fly extremely fast. I hope that the test goes well for you if you are interested.
Yours sincerely,
Princess Luna"
I got excited when I read this because I love flying very fast. I immediately sent a reply to her because I was accepting the nomination. I could not wait to go beyond the sky and into space. I did not know what kind of experiment I'd be helping out with, but I knew that it would provide data for the upcoming space travel program. That would open the opportunity to explore beyond our home world of Eqqus.
