After drifting over Spacedock, Carson lines up Intrepid and zeroes out, and checks all the controls.
“We have good alignment – verify reactor shut down and systems ready for docking! “
-Carson
Next, Sondo heads do the reactor and engineering controls, double and triple checking the nuclear reactor at the aft of the ship is nominal!
“Reactor systems have powered up our internal batteries – now that the ship is comfy again we should be good do spin it down. Power has been reduced to 5%!”
-Sondo
DSV 5 Intrepid – CM1 – Mission Summary
- Crew: Mission Commander Carson, Mission Scientist Bob, Mission Engineer, Sondo .
- Mission: First mission of DSV Intrepid! Crewed mission to Moho to perform landing using new DSV-Lander/Rover combo.
The most important part of the mission, gathering science and data from the surface of Moho, is Bob’s responsibility!
“Okeydoke got the science all boxed up by the hatch – we should be good to move it over once we’re docked! I wonder how long we’ll be staying on the space station“?
-Bob
After verifying everything is nominal, Carson fires the thrusters once, and the large spacecraft moves forward, slowly, towards the even larger Spacedock!
“Alright then – Spacedock we are starting docking – alignment good…“
-Carson
Seely and Pholie watching the docking from the cupola unit, are excited to have new guests on the station!
“Welcome back guys!”
-Seely
Intrepid connects with Spacedock! A series of ‘whirs’ and ‘clunks’ signal the docking mechanisms interlocking!
