So here's another weird one. I dreamt I was on a space station in some weird star system where the satellite of a gas giant was inhabitable. Only one hemisphere was inhabited and terraformed (I forget whether it was nearside or farside) and I'm pretty sure the space station orbited the moon, so that some days, we'd see lights and evidence of green and on other days we'd see nothing but regolith, just like Earth's Moon. Maybe it was a binary system since I remember the moon being mostly illuminated, even though the gas giant was in the way of the primary star.
In any case, at this space station, I think they were collecting people who had the weird power to attract meteorites. Like some kind of bizarre long-acting magnetism. I think they were collecting them under false pretenses (relocation, resettlement, a new job, something) but what they were really doing was laboratory testing in an effort to see if they could use them as interplanetary weapons.
Of course, this space station also served as a gateway for travel between star systems (I don't know, maybe the Dallas-Ft. Worth or O'hare of outer space) and I was just there waiting for my connecting flight, and all of the sudden people who I went to school with at Berkeley were there and we were reminiscing about old times.
Well I wonder if I can write a story about this. Unfortunately, for some reason, most of my dreams are never amenable to being written down.
