Who: Sam Wilson
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Marsiva
When: Today!
Well, now, this is real nice, isn't it? [Judging by the dry tone of Sam's voice, it isn't.] Not that I was doing anything important back home, but it sure as hell beats being scooped up and used to boost ratings on some sort of intergalactic Big Brother. [And, muttered to himself:] I don't even wanna know what happens if you get voted off.
[Back in a normal voice:] So, I'm Sam. Earth, twenty-first century. Guess I'm stuck here for a few days, huh? On the totally not creepy uninhabited giant spaceship. Yeah, I can see the ratings skyrocketing already. This sure better not be some kinda horror show, 'cause I know the black guy's always the first person to get killed by the out of control robots.
-nah, just kidding, they never even have black guys in space to begin with, I'm safe.
[sam what r u even on about]
Also, this food sucks big-time. Come on, can't they feed TV stars better than this? Why couldn't I get trapped on Food Network?

There was a guide, but the person keeping it up-to-date disappeared. Just keep the questions interesting. You know, a few about life here and then an occasionally something odd. Like, why are there no 'B' batteries?
And yeah, we tend to make stops in systems. This one is more about the asteroid belt than planets, but there's usually something. If the Marsiva stops, we stop. It's like there's an invisible tether. We can only go so far from it and then we get snapped back.

[Sam pauses for a moment, trying to think of a more interesting question.]
Okay, why aren't there any B batteries?

[She smiles fro a moment.] Mm, there used to be. They got outclassed by newer models like the double and triple A's. Europe was still using them some before everything.
