"The Cold Equation" Marilyn's Point of View

The name of the story is "The Cold Equation". It is written in third person-limited point of view. The new point of view is in third person-limited also but it is told and primary focusing on the thoughts and feelings of Marilyn. In the story they talk more about the pilot, but if it were told by Marilyn, we would have a better understanding of how she felt throughout the whole experience. In the story, we knew how Barton felt about having to end the life of the young girl, but if it were told by Marilyn we would know her feelings. Point of view really effects the story because with the thoughts and feelings, it makes a story more sentimental and heart filled.
