In the southern constellation Dorado (The Swordfish), one of the Milky Way's neighboring galaxies, is the Tarantula Nebula also known as 30 Doradus. Some stars were becoming extinct in this spidery celestial inferno, and others were yet to be born. One day the recycling process for one star begun...
Sanduleak -69° 202a was a magnitude 12 blue supergiant star, located on the outskirts of the Tarantula Nebula in the Large Magellanic Cloud that exploded, creating T'Rantula TeKillah. The light from the supernova reached Earth on February 23, 1987, transporting the T-Rantula TeKillah to Columbus, Ohio.
Dr. Noegood of NASA was the first to know about this spectacular event so at T-Rantula TeKillah's arrival they planned on having her cryogenically frozen. The Sprockettes heard about this on their transistor and came to her rescue. She was extremely hot and bright, about 10 billion times as luminous as the Sun. They had a hell of a time getting close to her so they used what they had available...fire extinguishers. Still afraid that the hot temperatures of her feet would melt through their Spaceship, they gave her a pair of skates to put on, but the boot melted leaving only the plate and wheels welded to her feet. Dr. Noegood was hot on their tail so she wiped out her BOP gun and put a space size cap in his you know what, disintegrating him to moon dust. Since their successful escape she's been using her ability to move at lights speed to help the Sprockettes send any one who opposes them TO THE MOON!
