Isla Ristol
Entrada 13
Como te prometí hoy voy a hablarte de mi habitación o, como
decimos la gente del espacio, camarote.
Es como un prisma rectangular pero el techo es como un
cilindro al revés porque encima pasa un tubo. Hay una
ventana digital que es como una ventana que puede ponerse
en modo pantalla cuando te aburres de ver estrellas,
planetas, oscuridad y todas esas cosas del espacio. No
tiene una cama normal, sino un futón porque me gusta más
así y además se puede recoger para tener más sitio.
Después hay un escritorio junto a la ventana digital y
un teclado, que no es virtual, sino físico porque papá
es un tacaño.
Tengo también un armario con la ropa y los zapatos.
(Aunque aquí en la nave no usamos de eso, me refiero a
los zapatos, la ropa sí que la usamos, sería divertido
si no la usáramos, y un poquito guarro).
Y eso es más o menos todo, la verdad. Bueno, sí, el
futón se le pueden poner unas cortinas en el techo y
se forma como un nido y en las cortinas se pueden
proyectar juegos, películas, imaginaciones, lo que
quieras. Y es bastante divertido, si tienes imaginación
para usarla.
23 días para Marte, pero de verdad, ¡¿Cómo podré tener
tanta paciencia?!

I have checked the cams yesterday and this is what I found.
It was 0200 in the morning, local time, 25 hours and 37 minutes ago[1]. The
whole ship started beeping. I rushed to the nav found meteroid-sized space
rocks shooting out of nowhere almost getting into our space bubble. I
immediately steered out of the zone, but unfortunately, a few of them managed
to still get in. I had no choice but to aim at them, which, as I expected,
damaged our nav window (damange level P3). So without a second thought, I
initiated the cloak and collected the scattered pieces of rock. Luckily, these
were stony-iron meteroids, and was composed of a considerable amount of iron,
so I've them put into the FMA (Feed Me Anything) machine, and it used the iron to
refuel our reactor.

Minor updates.
*!* AND reactor incident (this is me editting my message after transmission! I
can't believe it's possible) *!*
Looks like this quantum enta thing is actually quite easy to use! I've just
adjusted some settings for it, and it feels more like the SMRT (Satellite Mesh
Radio Transmitter, pronounced "smart") communication system I'm used to when we
weren't so far away from Earth!
It seems quite possible to not only send, but also *receive* transmissions...
Would have to figure that out later. Darcy wanted to try it too, but
unfortunately she wasn't good with my K-25, so in the meantime she is working
on what she calls VD-1 dictator, because we found that the quantum enta device
only supports voice in an foreign language. *!* if the VD-1 worked, a voice
recording should be included at the end of the transmission *!*
Our food and water supplies are becoming scarce, following up on my previous
transmission (assuming it was successful), we decided that there was no way to
survive any other attacks unless we cloak the ship and get into our ice beds.
By the way, they are really Hypersleep Pods, but it feels really cold in there
so we got used to calling it ice beds. We can't use it much since it consumes
