“Whoa,” Bytie whispered. “That was actually… fun.”
“I just used fractions to be a hero,” Cubix said, stunned. “That’s amazing.” Asteroid V2 Math Is Fun
“Tomorrow,” he announced, “we are rebooting Asteroid V2. It is no longer a rock. It is a .” “Whoa,” Bytie whispered
Bytie’s eyes lit up. “This is like a puzzle!” She shouted, “17!” The first lock clicked. “19!” Second lock clicked. “23!” The third lock clicked. It is no longer a rock

AlgoRhythm watched his colony sighing and beeping with boredom. He knew they had to recalculate the asteroid’s orbit before the Great Comet Storm arrived in seven cycles. But how could he make math exciting?
