Jeremy seems and acts younger than Fletcher but still teaches him a lot about how the Crew must pull together to run the ship.

7. Where is the first stopover for the ship where Fletcher gets to "babysit" the 'Junior Juniors' of the Crew?

Answer: Mariner

Although the 'Junior Juniors' are all older than Fletcher by age, they have never been to a station on liberty before, and look and act like much younger children. Fletcher is more "streetwise" as he grew up on-station so he gets put in charge for the stopover.

9. Who are the four Captains of the Finity's End at the beginning of the book?

Later on in the story James Robert the 'Senior Senior' Captain decides to take things a bit easier - he is 149 years old! and so James Junior (JR) is promoted to 'Junior Junior' Captain to assist the other three.

10. What does the Ship's Badge of the Finity's End look like?

Answer: Black circle on a blue background

The badge is a plain black circle to represent infinity and there is no writing because "Finity's End doesn't need to tell people who she is".
