So was it successful? ``Selina: So far, so good, but we may not know for a couple of qefs. ``Dobra: Most interesting, and I would like to know more. ``Selina: Well, are you coming back with us? ``Dobra: I was hoping you would ask, and I will see you at Algol Space Dock in the morning. ``Zola: Wonderful Mum. ``Dobra: You can bring me up to date on the way home. {Vulcan, Algol in transit to Citadel ~ 5} ``Jarry: Are we all ready to go, including Dobra? [Zaa's] Good. Drawbridge up and 4 greens, and I believe it is lift-off time. ``Tetra: My Sat fone still says it is in progress. ``Vanna: We have achieved the impossible so far, and it is only the Cosmos which can do miracles. Therefore patience again is a virtue. ``Leno: Slow down Tetra, and unwind. ``Zola: We have done well, and it was not as I expected it to be. ``Vanna: Nor me. ``Tetra: Totally different. ``Incus: It seems to have fallen flat, as there is nothing as yet actually to show for our achievements. ``Tetra: We may still have to come back and grab it, for further repairs. {Vulcan, in flight to Citadel ~ 4} ``Vanna: We must talk! ``Selina: I think we ought to wait for the conclusion from Dr Poult, before we start changing things too much. ``Vanna: Approved, and shall we have Tetra over? ``Selina: Zaa. ``Vanna: Tetra, a quiet word quin. ``Tetra: Zaa: ``Vanna: We are making changes to the rules at home. In future you will advise Mum, if you are staying over and whether you are in for dinner, etc. ``Tetra: Sorry Mum. ``Selina: When you get your own place, you can do what you like, but I have additional responsibility with two flyers in my family. ``Tetra: You win, and I will leave it on the notice board, whether I am in, or out, or in the Bunker. ``Vanna: Okay, that is all for now. Zimo. ``Dobra: Just tell me slowly, so I can take it all in! ``Tetra: Stop me if I go too fast. Leno can learn as well. These are the different stages of the start up sequence which it has gone through so far. ``Leno. It has no memory left from the past, so it has to create everything from scratch. ``Tetra: I should have thought of that one. ``Dobra: So something's are working? ``Incus: It appears that way, but we may still have to come back again. ``Dobra: So what happens if it clears this start up sequence? ``Incus: It may want to do a transponder check. ``Dobra: What is a transponder? ``Incus: It is a twin channel, which transmits the signal down to the surface. However you have to have, an uplink station to get the signal up to the satellite to start with. ``Jarry: How are you coping, and are you getting more tired than usual? ``Gina: I do feel slightly different, but this sortie is an ordeal, although I am okay, and so zaffre for asking. Are you tired? ``Jarry: Zaa, it has been hectic, so I will need two days off, especially after 5 qefs in space. We have all done well. ``Gina: Being incinta and five qefs in space, could create havoc on space lag, ``Jarry: At least I will be at home, to care for you. ``Zola: I think you ought to take me straight home when we land. ``Vanna: Certus. There will be a full meeting tomorrow morning at 11th time, so come over in Curly. ``Zola: Certus. ``Jarry: Final drinks before landing. ``Zola: I feel different after this sortie. ``Vanna: I am waiting for it to catch up on me. ``Zola: Triple space lag? ``Vanna: We have been in areas of space, which have not been mapped, so the atmosphere alone, has been talking to you. ``Zola: So it is the Cosmos talking, and not us? ``Vanna: As long as you have a clear mind, because it is testing you. ``Zola: I can see it clearly now, well I think so at last. ``Jarry: Landing in 10 units. ``Vanna: Sleep on it, and we can talk tomorrow when you are fresh.
