1: A view of Julia meeting with The Pharaoh.
Sedjet: Okay, then… Ah, what about Julia?
Jackson: Miss King… is on track to being rewarded and recognized as Earth’s first extrasolar astronaut.
Sedjet: Really now… How are you all spinning that?
Jackson: We’re not. The Pharaoh has decided we’re to be open and honest about the portal and the accidental expedition to that planet.
2: Sedjet sits back and thinks, a hand to his mouth as he looks away.
Sedjet: That might open some strange doors that we can’t close as easily…
Jackson: It wasn’t my decision. I see the logic, at least…
3: The Pharaoh stands over a row of body bags.
Jackson: There are just too many people missing to entirely cover it up.
She’s going to blame it on an accident, an experiment gone wrong with the portal. Julia will be honored as a volunteer and all those lost scientists painted as heroes for preventing disaster.
Sedjet: So many families ruined in the wake of all this…
Jackson: The SIU will be working overtime to prevent people from asking too many questions…

Dang, that’s a pretty good way to “sort-of-spin” that. Though I did forget how many “people” (of dubious veracity) were lost on this mission.
Also, did we get verification that all of the black mass (I’ve forgotten what that stuff was called at this exact moment) on the moon was cleaned up?
