=== The Premise ===
Six strangers, along with countless others, board a space cruise ship, for the maiden voyage of the ESS (Equestria Space Ship) Luna around the planet of Equestria. Rich and poor alike have been given the honor of being the first to experience the new technology allowing ponies to be in space. Everything is wonderful, and the ponies are amazed and happy... until disaster strikes. Something goes wrong with the ship, and it shuts down. With only the bare minimum of power still running, thousands of ponies are trapped in space, with limited resources, and no way to get home. Six strangers, who meet in extraordinary circumstances, band together in the chaos, and try to organize the panicked ponies and find a way home... before it's too late.

Since this is a radio drama, and we won't get to roll credits at the end of the show, I wanted to give a shout out to those who were a huge help along the way. So, I created this faux credit reel to give them recognition, because I wouldn't have been able to do this without them. If I left you out, I'm truly sorry. I thought long and hard about the list, and I honestly hope I didn't miss anyone. If I did, know that I truly appreciate everything you've done to help out, big or small.
=== The Episodes ===
Premiere: Episode 1

=== The Final Word ===
I just wanted to take this time, before the first episode airs, to say a few words.
First of all, thank you to everyone who's helped me, supported me, and dealt with me through this whole process. When I found the Radio is Magic creation thread and suggested the radio drama, I never thought I'd get pulled on to the staff to actually try and create my vision.
Now that we're at this point, I have to admit that I'm honestly terrified that the show is finally coming to fruition and is going to air. I just hope that you all enjoy it as much as you enjoy everything else we do on the radio show, because the radio drama is just like everything else we do - it's for you guys.
I, as well as the rest of my writers, voice actors, and crew have worked long and hard to bring you WTSSS, and our one desire is that you are able to sit back and enjoy what we are able to present you.
Thank you, everyone, and I hope that WTSSS is to your liking.
Your faithful radio drama director/cohost/RiM staff member,
Sage Fire (Fluttershy)
