Lasers From Space

Oh few people had ever heard of light ville the quiet little village and sunlight valley until an important solar research center was built in the area scientists came from all over the world to do very special experiments this is the story of how a boy named sparky together with some of his friends became involved in an experiment called lasers from space hey rattlesnakes their experiments are dangerous I think that's all a research center should be closed down now well Sparky do you have everything you need for your school's biology field trip I think so dad I made up the list of everything I thought I'd need dad what are all the people around here upset about apparently some of the town folks are upset about the experiments going on at the solar research center they think some of these experiments are just too dangerous of course there is always some danger and experimenting with something new but they're good people at the research center mom told me they'll be experimenting while we're on our field trip at the lodge will be able to watch the experiments some of the gangs been doing some neat experiments over to school science lab Ching really knows his stuff about science that's nice I know how to do a ching here let me show you will use the Sun coming in the window but chump we should let the teacher help us with this experiment it could be dangerous is this the kind of experiment your dad does at the research center Ching well sorta is the same idea they're trying to find new ways of collecting solar energy look the papers getting hot SI chum be careful you'll start a fire my brother won't listen to anybody he's always got to do it his way chav it's burning Oh chub that's not the way to experiment with solar energy we must always take the proper safety precautions uh-huh thanks mr. Bagley the installation of the last energy receptacle is proceeding on schedule good it looks like we can expand the experiments as scheduled here are the exact locations for the energy receptacles you can proceed with programming them into the computer mice on Booker is really excited and he'll be able to watch the experiments while on his class field trip so is Rob it should be a spectacular display since they take place at night which also helps us track the energy beams case the up-to-date satellite data the primary satellite appears to be maintaining a very stable orbit all right class everybody on the bus jobs not here yet he'll miss the trip the only thing chub makes your not to miss is mere time hey here he comes and I think he's brought everything he owned including plenty of extra candy bars and snack hmm char-broil it going overnight you brought enough for a month you never know we could get lost so I thought everything I needed including some candy bars and other stuff to eat Kirk just what do you think you're doing why I ought off Chum cool it man remember our Sunday School lesson about how we should treat kids who aren't Christians okay come on children the bus is ready to leave I sure hope I can find some more butterflies for my collection Sparky hey chump only sissies collect butterflies forget it Jeb Curtis wants trouble the video is ready on each of the receptacle sites good let's take a look hmm they'll appear to be ready we are right on schedule for the big test I'm glad you decided to leave most your stuff in the van job yeah it'll help you to run faster when you chase those butterflies hey you guys come on over here you can see the receptacle my dell use for the experiments tonight Wow why don't we see they'll bring down Sarah energy from a cetera in a break I'm of lighten no right students let's start our nature hike let's see our top handle this little critter alright let's put an end to the foolishness and start your assignment oh let's go Chuck what are you going to look for on this field trip pan I'm gonna try to find some wild mountain flowers come on guys mr. Begley wants us to look around on our own and see what we can find to show the others in the class ah I see what I'm looking for well you won't catch me getting in chubs way when he's looking for butterflies I see them metal homebush trying to catch one oh no way I'm going after him wow you think everybody believe in God when they see things like this hey I wonder where the rest of the guys are it's a good thing I brought my compass with me huh hey wow it's been in like crazy look here guys look at the stuff stuck in this big rock it's like this rock you look beat manga this piece is loose it's just sticking to the big rock let's take a weakness Booker oh come on glass these are now return to the lodge hello mr. Padgett how's the grocery business hello sheriff what brings you over to my store I'm tired of hearing all this talk about the research center they're responsible folks out there they don't plan to cause any trouble well some people tend to panic when they don't know the facts hmm I wish folks were worried about their souls as much as their property you know mr. Padgett you should have been a preacher no sheriff it's just that more people like you and me should talk about the things that are really important this world needs more people like you that's for sure no class this is what I found on our hike a real hornet's nest are there any War today mr. Bagley I wouldn't be affording it if there were chub can I hold it here Jake ah come over to the window guys will be able to watch the experiments in just a few minutes hold it steady fire data coming in on test firing of receptacle all data is normal good prepare for firing could receptacle that was really something we should see the full test in a few minutes 654321 by a receptacle bun fire number two I was is next fire number three what was that rom it looked like the energy being missed its target oh you guys are getting scared of nothing something's wrong at receptacle number three what is the problem a minus rating on the receptacle it appears the beam missed its target ok recheck all the instruments and the data then give me a full report all right class the tests are over but it's time to get into your cuts girls asleep in the next room while the boys sleep in here nothing checks out that's being receptacle three up on the video so we can inspect it for damage i'm having no luck getting the video in on receptacle number three I'll estimates the malfunction what mr. baggy job what are you doing on the floor I don't know what's going on here mr. Bagley look out the window the forest is on fire it looks like it started around the energy receptacles what are we gonna do everything is broken though we must get out the receptacle 3 and investigate there's only one Road out and the frames I'm afraid we're trapped and there's no phone here at the lodge to call for help yes a fire we're okay hello yes Sheriff ok keep me informed God please protect us from this fire and bring someone to help us well god help us we are ready let's take her up pilot will die if we don't get out of here don't panic Kirk all of us just need to trust in God what good will that do Sparky remember what I told you Kirk God loves you and he sent Jesus to die for your sins ask God to forgive your sins like I told you the bad things were doing and let Jesus be your Savior thank God will help you not to be afraid what if we die up here the Bible tells us when Christians die they just go to heaven to live forever but what about all those bad things I did the chump the Bible says we've all done bad things but God will forgive us and then we forgive each other this is as far as you can go with your fire equipment captain the road to the lodge is blocked we're in contact with the research center helicopter they think they might be able to reach the lodge by air please please folks let's not make any rash decisions until all the facts are in I told you that research project was too dangerous it's time now for some action it's our children I'm concerned about right now and will probably be waiting here the rest of the night for word of their safety sheriff to research helicopter sheriff to research helicopter what is your progress Raja said it we have near the launch area now but waiting for more daylight before moving in Roger we should have daylight soon move in as quickly as possible the winds blowing that fire right toward the lodge and fast it's getting light yes but I'm afraid of fire is getting closer well how come I'm sure God will protect us but for now they're going to have to leave the lodge Sparky I want to ask God to forgive me what should I do we'll pray together and you can ask God to forgive you repeat after me okay Sparky god I know I'm a sinner god I know I'm a sinner I believe Jesus died on the cross for my sins I believe Jesus died on the cross for my sins sheriff we are having trouble finding the lodge the smoke is too thick let's keep at it we must find the children I say it's time we vote to shut down the solar research project that won't accomplish anything we've waited here all night now let's give the sheriff more time to report back what is important is that we pray and trust in God that he will keep our children safe come on everybody let's move over to that large opening this should give us more time to wait for help to arrive because God heard our prayers Sparky God always hears the prayers of those who put their faith and trust in him hear that noise it sounds like a helicopter I'm afraid the smoke is too thick they may not see us sheriff we think we have spotted a large and it is now in flames but there is no sign of the children what are we gonna do if they don't find us if we had a mirror I could see near the helicopter i learned morse code last summer but we must hurry The Sun will soon disappear behind the smoke but we left everything back at the lodge you got any more candy bars Chum yeah why it's got a metal foil wrapper we can flatten it out and use it every idea let us turn back and fly over the large area again Nikki's it's ready then all the war crime I hear the helicopter I think it's coming back wait a minute I think I see something yes oh yes it is probably the children let us take it down research copter to shed it we have spotted the children and they appeared to be all right Roger will relay the good news to town hello yes great good news please let me have your attention I've just received word from the Sheriff's Department the children have been found and they are own cave well that's good news let's stay back into the helicopter has landed take her off quick we are being blown into the trees oh no the vendors too strong it blew them to all the trees let us try approaching the opening from downwind this time here they come again we better move in quickly the fire is getting close you're right Sparkie about God taking care of us quick give him he would leave the fight is getting close no chump are you okay chuckling yeah I think so there is no need to panic we'll be out of here soon enough everyone okay yeah okay I hardly saw your signal we use this flattened wrapper from one of jobs candy bar it's a good thing this hope was too thick to see you what went wrong with the experiment father I do not know son something went wrong with the sensitive instruments that guide our energy beams you mean like my compass when I got near that big rock what do you mean chubby it was a rock as big as a small mountain well we got near it chubs compass went crazy even pieces of metal stuck to it see here's a loose piece i found this mel pan sticks right to it hmm a magnetic force that large could have caused our instruments to malfunction this is important information that should save the research project and it also gives us a clue to a potentially more serious problem sabotage Wow someone with evil intent could do the same thing causing even more damage but something even more important has been saved and what is that Sparky Sparky helped me become a Christian that is wonderful what happened to you Kirk truly becoming a Christian is more important than anything we do with the solar research project
