Ship’s log, 23:19, 1 October 2214 Location: Sarabande Station, near the Cerces black hole Status: Docked, powered down Things are moving so fast that my head would spin if I had one. Luckily, I have subroutines I can use to manage all the data, filtering and caching and juggling requests. I wasn’t really built […]

Ship’s log, 09:23, 4 October 2214 Location: Near the Cerces black hole Status: Sublight transit Most of the time, sublight transit is quiet. Dull, even. Journeys across vast tracts of empty space are generally done in straight lines, under constant acceleration or coasting once the optimum speed has been reached. No corners, maybe a […]

Ship’s log, 11:56, 4 October 2214 Location: Near Sarabande Station and the Cerces black hole Status: Sublight transit I just moved inside the orbital path of Sarabande Station and cut my sublight engines.

Ship’s log, 19:02, 5 October 2214 Location: Standard orbit distance from the Cerces black hole horizon Status: Orbiting Artificial gravity disabled Inertial dampeners offline That’s three, by my count. Three distinct gravitational fluctuations, each one stronger than the last, each one located in a different part of my structure. I have disabled all […]
