We were complety dead in space for about 6 hours today. No life support, no environmental controls, navigation, communication, nothing. Damn compression coil blew yet again.The backup was bad and the backup of the back was bad. All came from the same damn batch.
My ace mechanic was able to mix and match parts from the various bad models and we are back in business. He thinks he can manufacture them in our machine shop so I told him to cracking. I need to put him in for a commendation, he really is top notch. The whole crew has become as one and the camaraderie is at an all time high. I've got them mining the grav site in Zaniverse. Of course, they will alert me should need arise but it has been quiet of late. Famous last words there.
I've retired to my quarters and am taking the rest of the night off. Music and and movie sounds good. I can monitor the mining progress from here. I went into the dispensary and managed to snag some feel good pharmaceuticals that I am particularly enjoying and the visit to the on-board hydroponics lab has helped as well.
