+(Y la mejor!!!)
+
+¡Es la super-emoción! Mañana aterrizamos en Marte. Supongo

+no me puedo ni me quiero de acordar de ninguna
+ninguna
+
+ninguna
+
+porque
+
+MAÑANA ESTAMOS EN MARTE!!!!
+
+Y encima vamos a estar mucho tiempo. Es que es genial, por
+lo menos una semana

+
+¡1 mes entero! 30 y muchos días quizás... porque hay que
+preparar la Isla Ristol para su primer, mi primer

+
+¡Salto instelestar!
+
+Puede que esté un poco excitado. Parece que la nave hay
+que prepararla porque quedaron cosas a medio hacer, hemos
+tenido problemas, incidencias y todas esas cosas. Así que
+mientras los adultos nos resuelven todo eso los niños
+tendremos aventuras en Marte
+
+Como unas vacaciones científicas pero mejor.
+
+Tra-la-lá
+
+mi vida es maravillosa
+
+Y encima Polaris todavía no se ha hecho supernova
+
+Así que quizás tenga la suerte de verla desde Marte

+Transmission Log - Orestes
+Author: Green
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------
+Auto-generating preface...
+
+ A transmission log by GREEN. He thinks the messages aren't
+ reaching anyone. He philosophizes about the concept of life. He
+ complains about his fellow human-inhabitants at the Orestes.
+
+ Thank you for sending the mining equipment, I'll distribute it to
+ the crew when the time seems fitting, as per your recommendation.
+
+-END-OF-PREFACE-
+---------------------------------------------------------------
+
+
+ You still haven't sent the mining equipment, or anything for that
+ matter. Lending credence to my theory that these messages aren't
+ reaching anyone.
+
+ I still, for some reason, feel the desire to update you. There
+ are things to tell. Events that happen. Even in this remote
+ corner of the universe, populated only by three people and a
+ bunch of strange, inert, red crystals, things happen.
+
+ If reminds me of something a philosopher once said, when talking
+ about 'life' (Life, after all, and the inexplicable human desire
+ to find more of it, is why we're here).
+
+ We usually think of things beginning when life appears. That
+ is, before life, there are no real 'events'. Life is activity,
+ motion, desire, growth. In absence of life, there are just rocks
+ planets, stars, etc. We are fascinated about the question of the
+ beginning of life, that strange moment when one cell first
+ divides into two.
+
+ But, the philosopher said, there is no life without difference
+ and before what we call 'life' appeared there was difference. The
+ universe is full of differences. Or, to be more exact, the
+ universe made up of of processes, and processes are just a series
+ of differentiations.
+
+ We think of life as continuous, as having a history (genealogy),
+ a clear beginning and end. But this sense of life, the one that
+ we cling to so dearly, the reason we voyage out into the void in
+ search of it, this sense of life is a construct. A story we tell
+ ourselves to try to make sense of the constant differentiation
+ and change. Underneath it all is the force of pure difference;
+ the relation between this molecule and another, between a 1 and a
+ 0, between the geology of this 'dead' rock floating in space and
+ 'that' one. So, if you're tracking a process of differentiation
+ across the universe, 'events' are happening all the time.
+
+ Not with these crystals though. There really is nothing going on
+ with them, in any sense.
+
+ All that's been happening are the overly-familiar kinds of
+ 'events'. PINK ate the last of the apples. I couldn't believe it.
+ She ate it right in front of me, like it was a perverse act of
+ sadism. I don't get her sometimes. She is usually so calm and
+ rational.
+
+ NAVY is sulking or has taken a vow of silence or something and
+ has become as unresponsive as the crystals. I ended up screaming
+ my head off at him the other night. I feel bad about it now.
+ These kinds of 'events' tire me. I wish sometimes I could be less
+ 'me', less 'alive', and just be a pebble on the beach or
+ something. Being slowly eroded by a wave.

-Subject : Reached 'Nadeena' in Ganymede
-
-Hey J,
-
-How ya doing man? I couldn't get in touch with you since the pigs cought me.
-Anyway I got out last year. Anyway it's not important now. I know you haven't
-been to Ganymede yet, guess what, now I am in Ganymede. I hope to visit
-Callisto too, I heard the tunnel city there is like a paradise, but in hell.
-Haha just kidding. I mean there can't be a heaven underground, right? Yeah
-I know that joke isn't funny. You know my jokes are not funny right.
-
-Anyway it's already late, I already resupplied but thought it's just better
-to check if everything is fine with the ship. I hope to spend a couple more
-weeks in Ganymede. Is there anyway we can meet? I know you are not here in
-Ganymede but just by chance if you visit Jupiter let me know, okay? So that's
-all for now cousin, catch ya later.
-
-Ezz.

-> I could find this small town called 'Nadeena'
-> Here most people are mechanics or vendors
-> The town is a little bit dirty
-> I've already passed many shops selling old
- electronics.
-> I wish I could find an another Thinkpad
- I mean an old one
-> I still have to find a motel, a cheap one.
