We've just received word from the Galactic Federation; there's
|
|
an unknown object on collision course with our planet. They
|
|
will send a ship to pick the people on this planet up and any
|
|
ships we have.
|
|
|
|
This planet is pretty poor; we only have one or two ships per
|
|
community. I live on my own, so I have my own ship. Entitled
|
|
the Enterprise, it has two beds, with shelves in the walls for
|
|
each person. On the other side of the living quarters, there's
|
|
two shelves for multipurpose use. I currently use some of it
|
|
for a tiny hydroponic garden. At the back of the ship is the
|
|
food/cargo hold/emergency escape pod.
|
|
|
|
The cockpit is outfitted with an 80x80 terminal, which has a
|
|
framebuffer. I've outfitted it with my home built QEC, as
|
|
it's apparently called. I found a 3 gigabyte RAM chip, so
|
|
memory isn't a problem. The only inconvience is that I cannot
|
|
save anything. But I can still get all the published texts
|
|
from the relay station, so there's a plus there.
|
|
|
|
Still awaiting an estimate for the collision; for now I've
|
|
been farming and scavenging for food, and moving things to my
|
|
craft.
|
|
|
|
Until next time,
