Re: (005) On to Elsburg

Sorry for the long absence, but life has been crazy. The Dean seems to think he can just keep adding research groups without increasing support staff, and we got hacked for a few weeks without knowing it... fortunately it was just with some crypto-miners not ransomeware, but now campus ISO and the ...

Maybe embed that part of the doc into a google sheet ; you can share individual sheet tabs while protecting the rest of the document. This implies that you can now embed parts of a google doc into another one...https://support.google.com/docs/thread/18706390/is-is-possible-to-embed-one-google-doc-in...

Re: (14) Tionale - In Search of a Lady

The week in jump space passes without an problems. It does give the crew time to work on their skills and do more maintenance. It also give everyone to talk among themselves about how they plan to find the Baron's daughter and deliver the letter from her mother. As dinner winds down the first eveni...

Tamaki will man the sensors/comm station, especially since that's been the primary focus of all of her studies over the past few weeks.

Re: Jump To Spectra

At 167 hours, 59 minutes and 52 seconds into the jump, Akus Moby emerges from Jump Space. Everyone's stomach twists slightly, but this is a smooth transition, one of the smoothest you ever remember having, and you are all back to normal in just a few seconds. Data starts coming in from sensors on t...

Re: Jump To Spectra

The week passes without incident aboard the Akus Moby and you are nearing the time when your ship will emerge back into N-space. What actions are you taking?

Port Locker Contents

Showing the key, Hendrick is allowed past the desk and using the code on the key as a guide he finds Akus' locker. It is a 3 x 3 x 3 meter cube, climate controlled, room with a sturdy metal door. When you unlock the door you hear a slight hiss of air escaping from the room. Opening the door a light ...
