I was thinking about the early days of manned space flight, of Yuri Gararin and John Glen... too extraordinary men. I brought some of these exciting times to Equestria.

This is a one-pony story, staring who else, Captain Rainbow Dash!

This story is a reminder that, although space exploration is wonderful and exciting, it is also very, very dangerous.

No animals or ponies are harmed in this story. And no humans are involved... at all.

A MLP version of Goldilocks and the Three Bears, modified by Water Walker, from the current version as written by Joseph Cundall.... which is a modification of "The Story of Three Bears" by Robert Southey; reportably based upon the oral story "Scrapefoot"... maybe.

After being bullied a young filly runs away… only to face mortal danger. She is saved by mysterious pony.
