The Super Pallas Athena Rocket, Turbine,and Navigation

The concept of the black hole and the worm hole being developed and modified and channeled to produce safe passages to other points in spacetime is nothing new. The fact that it hasn't been produced and packaged is what keeps it seductive in the fictional market. But, this also runs counter to being able to suspend disbelief, which of grand importance in storytelling. With the simple physics of the normal citizen being unable to facilitate such an outwardly powerful mechanism such as a rocket that would put a human being and his or spacecraft into orbit- much less an array of them as is planned (except, for now- Big B is the only human being making his way to the FBOM Competition Marker), I am looking with appeal to the Baudrillardian concept of turning the sock inside out and going with the black hole and the worm hole.

The most obvious storytelling obstacle I have is, I intend only to put Big B in lunar trajectory and not on the Moon in itself; also, his spacecraft will make the traditional return trip to Earth. The basic question arises: If you can master such a technology, why not just put Big B on the Moon, claim the marker and pull him back through using carry-forward device(s)?

The idea right now is to label this the Super Pallas Athena Rocket, Turbine, and Navigation. There will be structuring of spacecrafts and rockets; the turbine will be the black hole/worm hole apparatus that will end up looking more like dreamcatcher and carousel and be manned by witches; and, the navigation will lend itself to a character who I will affectionately refer to as 'the Astrologer' and who will be like Flight Control using a variety of astrology readings and markings and amlets and what not in adition to the conveyance of the witches who work the turbine and empower the rockets and spacecraft to fall-launch instead of propulsion-based flights.

The Astrologer will be working out this new technology and will limit his stretch of mobility; this also becomes a technical agreement in divying up responsibility for life-support and technical prowess to stay alive and keep human ingenuity in the driver's seat per-se with the spacecrafters.

The other storytelling aspect that can be briefly explored here, and definitely will have some initiation of thought for future Hekatebolos, will be the Stations of the Cross Contingent and their perspective on having 'magic' in the backyard when their standards of operation and belief should be good enough; also, that the technology should be derived by traditional scientific method and not 'hocus-pocus'.
