Episode 0636 - The Eagle Crisis 4: Captain, Cavie, Dalbir, Dux, Farle, Kirin, Skipper, Tetra, ~ 08 ``Kirin: A message in from Dux. He is offering us 75% of the 'salvage rights'; and you will need the Vulcan. ``Captain: What do you think, Kirin? ``Kirin: Confirmed. ``Captain: Arrange a full meeting now of all crew, which is compulsory, including Jarry, whether he is fit for work or not and advise Tetra. ``Kirin: Zaa Captain. {Space Dock Centre, Meeting ~ 8} ``Tetra: I suggest we take the Vulcan up to 5Km and run a double check, which should rule out any anomalies or discrepancies. The figures from Dux, suggests that where they should be and where they are will depend on if the Eagle has tried to correct the error and get back on course. Therefore after predicting where she should have been, and length of time off course, it would make the Eagle a little closer in. ``Kirin: I too would also agree, that they should start from theses new co-ordinates. ``Skipper: Agreed. ``Jarry: It makes sense. ``Dalbir: The Eagle crew were experienced, so they would have switched to manual, so I approve. ``Kirin: I agree, but what caused them still to fail to reach the next ley point, is my concern. --- ``Captain: Message to Dux, confirmed 'salvage rights', with new recommended co-ordinates. Hire a Chopper to take us all over to SP6. We need Nacra, Selina and Vanna in to help on the radio, and Vanna is invited to come with us. We will be ready for lift off by 14th time, and only a light meal. Meeting concluded. Zimo. {V001 Citadel in flight to ALT 5Km in Zero Gravity} ``Dalbir: I have checked the figures with Jarry and Tetra, and she will compare them back on the ground. We are free to have some fun. Skipper and I will relieve you of control so you do not miss out on the fun. ``Captain: Zarfs Skipper. The Saucer is not recommended for this mover, so 10 units only, everyone. {Space Dock Tower ~ 2} ``Tetra: Well Captain, considering we have the same navigational computer system in both Saucers, one would think that the figures should total up, but they do not, and they are different by 5%. Therefore I have transmitted the revised set of co-ordinates. ``Kirin: We cannot wait, and we must leave. ``Captain: Zaa, Kirin. 5 of us go now. Action stations. ``Jarry: Captain, we are waiting on Kara for the food. {C001 Cepheus in flight to Eagle 10 ~ 3} ``Farle: Dux and Cavie, these new figures look interesting. ``Dux: A small improvement, but we cannot query it again as they were done in two Saucers. Therefore change of course Cavie, and maintain Mach 10. ``Cavie: Zaa Dux. ``Farle: We should be there in 3-hours, so I will knock up some food. ``Dux: It has been a long qef, so I suggest we all crash-out for a while and then have some hot food. ``Farle: Lights out. [Later] ``Farle: Zila, zila. Food time. ``Dux: Wonderful. ``Cavie: We have stopped. ``Dux We must be here. Let us go and see. Farle, croaks beans quin. ``Farle: Zaa Dux. --- ``Dux: I will do a wide scan echo. Cavie: Nothing. Dux: Okay let us move on. Towards next pointer. --- ``Cavie: Nothing. ``Dux: Keep going. ``Farle: I heard a bleep, it is about 6,000 Km away but north west from here. ``Dux: Change course, Mach 4. ``Cavie: Dropping to Mach 0. ``Dux: All stop. What a devastating sight. Now what do we do? ``Farle: The Vulcan is on its way, and is at Mach 11. ``Dux: We will have to Dock with the Vulcan, so I can pressurise the Eagle. Advise the Vulcan, accordingly and we need space suits and spare oxygen. ``Farle: They will be here soon, so we have to wait. ``Cavie: We will dock on top of the Vulcan? ``Farle: I have sent them confirmation, that they dock with us. ``Dux: Send another message saying who is docking with who? --- ``Farle: Okay they have confirmed they are docking with us, and we will be on top of you.
