STATUS UPDATE:
|
|
The crew were awakened from cryosleep on schedule. 16/18 survived. We
|
|
lost Valton and Parsons. The crew is in mourning, but otherwise,
|
|
morale is good. Mostly, we're glad as many of us survived as we did.
|
|
All systems nominal. We had a malfunction with the recycler, but it's
|
|
been fixed. Our water is going to taste extra salty for a few days, though.
|
|
We are within 100,000,000,000km of our destination. Unexpected orbital
|
|
structure noted: possibly artificial? Unusual readings, must look into
|
|
it.
|
|
|
|
The system definitely shows signs of a spacefaring civilization! We've
|
|
been attempting to make contact, but we're having difficulty parsing
|
|
signals. I expect the same is true for them. Still, I'm excited. We
|
|
knew there was a good chance we weren't alone when we first got those
|
|
signals all those years ago, and now we've confirmed it! Let's just
|
|
hope they're friendly.
|
|
|
|
We'll give you a shout when something happens.
