Was that supposed to the moon, or perhaps a planet or an astroid. She did not have any more time to think about why it was there and what it was however, because her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of Professor Flamsteed shouting duck and cover. Not questioning the order to duck and cover, Penelope immediately ducked down under the desk and curled up on the floor, covering the back of her head with her hands. She didn't look up until she heard Professor Flamsteed speak again. Reluctantly, she crawled out from under the desk and sat in her seat again. It still seemed like it would be safer under the desk. What exactly had that been? Penelope hadn't been able to see everything that happened when she was hiding under the desk, but she had a general idea of what had happened. "Did that represent an asteroid colliding with a planet?" If that demonstration was any indication of what the class activity would be like, she was in for a very dangerous lesson, possibly the kind where she would get hurt. Why was it always her in Flamsteed's class?
