Well, for anyone who reads this, I hope your colony is doing better than we are

at the moment. And if you are reading this, at least it's a sign that we can

communicate with the QEC. Something is better than nothing, I suppose.

First thing's first: our comms are still broken.
|
||||
|
||||
The crew and I spent all evening trying to fix them. It took us hours just
|
||||
to figure out what the problem was, and even longer to try and work out what
|
||||
caused everything to break. The short of it is that half the wiring is fried and
|
||||
a few of the more complex components are shot, mostly due to age. It's not a fun
|
||||
problem to deal with, especially since we don't yet have the materials to fix
|
||||
it. Sure, wires are fairly common around here, but it's the components I'm
|
||||
worried about.

Sometimes the fact that I'll only ever know the same few hundred people over
|
||||
my entire life gets to me. It doesn't usually bother me because this is all I've
|
||||
ever known - why should it be strange? But every once in a while I'll stare up
|
||||
into the sky and see nothing but the vast reaches of space and realize how truly
|
||||
alone we are. Port Novis is a tiny speck in the galaxy, small and insignificant
|
||||
compared to the other groups of humans travelling farther and farther out into
|
||||
the stars. There's less than a thousand of us. The closest human civilization is
|
||||
the lab on Mars, and it's been a while since we've heard from them. They might
|
||||
even be doing worse than we are.
|
||||
|
||||
That brings me to the reason I'm writing this. Our connection with the UPG
|
||||
systems has failed. That means no outside contact, no news updates, no
|
||||
nothing. We've lost connection with the rest of human civilization. Jed and his
|
||||
crew are working on fixing it, but it's been hours now and they haven't made
|
||||
much progress.
|
||||
|
||||
Luckily we still have some communications. Everything works locally, just not
|
||||
the systems that send or receive messages from outside the port. A few people
|
||||
have started sending messages to the QEC, although we have no way of telling if
|
||||
they've actually gone through. It's a nice idea, though. And it does feel a
|
||||
bit... cathartic? Writing feels different when you aren't sure if anyone will
|
||||
ever read it.
|
||||
|
||||
Anyway. Today went completely off course when the comms went out, and I still
|
||||
have a few things to do before I turn in for the night. Let's see...
|
||||
|
||||
Today's checklist:
|
||||
[ ] fix wiring in the lab card reader
|
||||
[ ] log data for seed growth experiment
|
||||
[ ] sweep up lab
|
||||
|
||||
I'll probably have to fill in for Dad and clean up the workshop a bit. He always
|
||||
insists on doing it himself but he's still out working on the comms and I have a
|
||||
feeling it'll be late when he gets back. Usually I can convince him to go to
|
||||
sleep if I clean up for him. I'll at least give it a shot.
|
||||
|
||||
Well, for anyone who reads this, I hope your colony is doing better than we are
|
||||
at the moment. And if you are reading this, at least it's a sign that we can
|
||||
