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

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

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

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