======BEGIN TRANSMISSION======
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
quite a lot of of our limited energy. Of course, it would be much better if
we'd been near a star but unfortunely our radar died several days ago, and the
only crewmate that can fix it died from a meteroid strike which I explained on
the last transmission, if I remember correctly.
Spider Creature & Meteroids
---
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.
[1]: It has been 22 hours and 42 minutes since the last transmission, and the
duration between that and #549 was (as mentioned previously) 2 hours and 55
minutes. Therefore, from that attack until now is precisely 25 hours and 37
minutes.
Meanwhile (restored from cams), at the same time of arrival of the first few
meteroids, there was one, asteroid-sized rock that came from the back of the
ship. The origins of the object is unknown. It came closer and closer to the
our ship, with exponential increase of speed. Unless our records had been
mangled, the asteroid invisiblized then visiblized after travelling "through"
the ship walls. Then, after
