Logbook entry #18
Jacob Trydelius IV.
Time: 18:50
30th June 3304
So today, it was a pretty standard daily routine for me. I'm still not perfectly fit, but better than yesterday and on Thursday. When I woke up near the mining outpost, Dav's Hope was the name as you might remember, I noticed how there was even more stuff to gather. After a short breakfast I started driving around and collecting the materials, and after four hours I already had thrice the things I needed, plus some extra ones.
You know, those low G planets, are somewhat cool to drive around on, but are also a bit terrifying. Imagine just flying away from the planet, because you boosted too high. But in my certain case, something other was the problem. So those old mineworkers have these vacuum dust cleaners for low G planets, to suck up the dust that could cause a great stir. You might think a twenty-year old mine wouldn't have energy or something like that, but, nope, you guessed it wrong.
I was approaching some galvanised alloys, which were laying on the ground, when I suddenly felt a small lurch. When I looked to the left, I saw that my left wheel had been sucked up by an old vacuum cleaner.
I desperately tried to go adrift from it, but it wouldn't work, neither would the lateral thrusters. After a tangible eternity I finally came free, but don't ask me how.
I decided to jump back home, but I noticed I still needed datamined wake exceptions. So I thought of a plan.
- I needed many ships in a small area
- No distractions like pirates etc.
- It had to be legal, obviously
A short brainstorming session, and then I knew what I had to do: I had to find a famishing system and search for a distribution center, where they give the people food.
It didn't take long and I found a system with given parameters. I approached the distribution center, and there were ships in dozens. Already my second wake scan was a datamined wake exceptions.
After a short formal talk with the authorities, just to spell out that my actions were legal. At 18.00 I had more than I needed and I continued my journey.
I'm thinking about engineering the other modules too, maybe I can reduce their mass. Also let's pray for the Deciat system, may those dirty insects be doomed for eternity.
Hail the empress, Jacob out.
