Bioship Movement

Improved Essays
Bioships are life forms of movement.
In Space, the very survival of Bioships depends on their being able to move. Movement is also the mode through which Bioships learn the quickest. If a Captain wants a happy, obedient Bioship, then she should let him move as much as possible. Staying in one place for too long is hazardous to both the Captain’s health and to the Bioship’s well-being too.
Inexperienced Captains tend to be scared of the Bioship's quick movements. This is not an unreasonable reaction because it does go a long way in ensuring the safety of the Captain. However, it does pose a serious problem in regards to training the Bioship. A Bioship must move, and one that is prohibited to do so will somehow find a way to move. Unfortunately,

Learning Captainship of a Bioship, can be a powerful and sometimes difficult inner journey for the Captain. How do Bioships attain leadership? They attain it through movement. The Captain of a Bioship is the one who can make the Bioship move. When the Bioship complies, it means that he has accepted the Captainship of the Captain.
Natural Bioship training makes use of this natural Bioship hard-wiring. Through carefully asking for movement and then directing that movement, the Bioship learns that the Captain is just asking for movement, not trying to kill the Bioship, and that the Captain is very capable of directing the Bioship’s movements, and thus the Captain becomes the leader of the Bioship.
Bioships who have been in space for too long have been observed hazing any newcomer, that is any new entity, by chasing the newcomer who is trying to gain entrance into the already established unit of Captain and Bioship. Through this chasing or hazing, the pecking order is determined and established.
I found being a Bioship to be too much of a burden. All I wanted was to cease to exist.

    Dick Couch writes a thought-provoking book, A Tactical Ethic: Moral Conduct in the Insurgent Battlespace, which details a growing problem in the United States military, i.e. maintaining ethical and moral behavior on and off-duty. His supporting arguments are society emphasizes behavior not conducive to promoting positive ethical behavior, malignant personalities in the ranks spreading negative behavior, and the ambiguity of the asymmetric warfare fought today. He provides anecdotal evidence supporting the US military’s methodology to combat these trends. However, his true strength lies in the combat stories of ethical dilemmas related to him through soldiers serving in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars and advice given for junior officers and…

    If we want to defense our coast line, we do not have to leave crews members in the sea for months, even years. However, the environmental impact could occur because ships engines emit heat, noise, particulates and gases which contribute to climate change and global warming. Ships will become more efficient and less polluting over time. On the other hand, these small gains have and will continue to be overwhelmed by the gross inefficiency of the activity and the rapid growth of the…

Although, Symbolic-Interactionism focuses on the finer details it neglects the problem as a whole.…

    When an incoming trainer is recruited, they fail to educate them on the potential harm that these whales can, and have done. Once, a whale jumped over another whale and crushed a trainer, breaking his hip, incident prior to a trainer being hired, that she was never informed of. Also, then another whale, Takara, had her baby, the management was quick to take the baby away from her, where the mother whale then cried for days straight, making cries that had never been picked up from any whale in the wild because they were so long ranges, looking for her calf. When the trainers defended the whale, the management made fun of all of the trainers and just entirely degraded them. (Blackfish...)This may be taken as the management trying to give their trainers tough skin, but in reality it is under educating them, making the unsafe environment painstakingly more…

    Even if someone didn’t know much about the social history of the Navy, they could probably still expect it to mirror, or even just closely align with, the social history of the nation it served. It’s certainly true of Hispanics in the Navy, and immigrants in general, but someone might not know how much opportunity the Navy afforded those who served, too. Indeed, it’s a remarkable fact, according to Naval historian Dennis Nelson, that little was made of race in the early years of the U.S. Navy. But it makes sense.…

    Marxism In Star Trek

    The impetus behind the conception of the original “Star Trek” series of the late sixties was to give its audience a change from the stereotypical Western themed programs dominating the airwaves. From its very modest beginnings, however, Star Trek’s lead creator, Gene Roddenbery, had much farther-reaching goals. Soon demonstrating that it was more than a mere “wagon train to the stars” as Roddenbery originally claimed, the series invariably raised the question: “What makes us human?” Since its profound beginnings the Star Trek franchise has since expanded to include 5 different television series, not including a brief animated series, and a total of 10 feature films so far. Of this vast library of pop philosophy regarding the…
