+ Lead Pilot Mandated Log Entry #3 +
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Arthen Damasatra making my third official log entry.
Preliminary evaluation of planetary data continues.
Second wave of Neumann devices' datastreams were incomplete and
fragmentary, requiring delay to complete third generation devices
initialization. Early evaluation of this dataset indicates greater
level of completeness, and we are proceeding accordingly.
Initial planetary data indicates two likely possibilities,
confirming preliminary E.S.S.I. conclusions.
Evaluation of prior pass data has been completed, and computational
parameters have been confirmed and approved. Instruction from
CentCom (in attached directive data) concluded data evaluation at
-7.24m.
Live fire engine test completed succesfully at -7.15m, no
significant anomalies
:Log ends.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The slog continues, helped in no way by the high-handed mucky-mucks
in CentCom. The purity of the random selection model proves itself
again, my ass.
I can't pretend that the failure of the second-wave von-Neumanns
isn't troubling, even a little. When the datastream was given to
us, there were huge chunks missing, so that meant there was
something "wrong" with the devices. Sal and I were worried this
meant the mineral composition data for the system was wrong, that
the place isn't as rich as Essi's models suggested.
Thankfully, the third-wave came on-stream just as predicted, so we
can put those concerns aside, for now. The missing data is still
missing, though, so we'll have to wait for the sails to get more
complete data on atmospheric structures.
We got the info from the previous passes done, with help from
Bartik.
While doing that, it turned out that Sal is a dead-header. She let
it slip after a particularly annoying conversation with Bartik one
evening. We never talked anything like this "before", so it was a
complete surprise to me. She wasn't involved in the campaign
against the Augments, but she was in the 30% who voted against
having them on the ship. I honestly don't know what I feel about
this, just another part of the chaos that's all around me, I think.
I just want to get on, get the burn done, and move on from flying
this giant to flying smaller simpler things. I don't care if I do
that with Augments or without, I'm so sick of waiting.
And turns out, I'm not the only one! CentCom decided we'd done
enough checking of the prior pass data, ordered an end to the
analysis, and ordered us to proceed to a live engine check as soon
as, and gave a bare-minimum 86 kilosecs deadline. We ran through
the checklist in perfect pattern, and so, five planetary systems,
hundreds of light years later, I drove this ship (for about 5s) for
the second time.
I want to do it again. I have to do it again.
I just better get it right. No pressure.
