Space Race

Dear Princess Celestia,

Today, I learned why classified technical documents require extra protections and limits to access. As you know, many members of our program, including yours truly, were worried about the implications that the inclusion of the Crystal Empire into the Poniet Union would have for the Luna project's timeline. Many of those worries were unfounded, as ‘The Power of Love’ turned out to be a less than optimal fuel for advanced rocketry. However, as I recently discovered, ‘The Power of Love’ has a much more effective application in espionage. Luckily enough, Rarity’s meticulous attention to detail helped spot the security breach before any important papers could be leaked, and we’ve added extra regulations to correct this problem for the future.

Unfortunately, Big Macintosh will no longer be working for the engineering team.

Your loyal subject,

Twilight Sparkle
