            public var test_object_2:Test_Object_2;

            public function Main_Class()
            {
                  trace ('Hail and well met, traveling Selenite.');

                  test_object_2 = new Test_Object_2();
                  addChild( test_object_2 );

                  addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, enter_frame);
            }

            public function enter_frame(ee:Event)
            {
                  main_object_1.rotation += 0.5;
