YE/D01 - Bridge
#64
Qi stood up at his station. Scans revealed almost one hundred crewmen, locked in suspended animation for more than a century. He’d spent many late nights reading about early starships, out of morbid interest as much as anything else. Spacefaring meant something different before the modern convenience of warp drive and artificial gravity. Aboard modern ships, it was almost possible to forget about the dark abyss of space pressed up against the transparent aluminum windows. For early pioneers, that darkness must have been a constant companion.

I’m worried that the crew didn’t automatically wake up when the distress signal activated. The ship’s critical systems might be on their way out. Early stasis devices were touchy pieces of technology.

“Put us in an orbit five hundred kilometers above the derelict; it'll be close enough to grab her with a tractor beam if needed, and shield her from prying eyes. We're going to have to go aboard to see what we can do for these people; Commander Qi, Lieutenant Hydish and I will beam across and try and stabilise their orbit."

“Ready when you are captain,” Qi said, ready to spring for the turbolift at a moment’s notice, “I said this ship was an antique, but I didn’t realize it was legendary. Historians have debated for years about what happened to the Lord Franklin.”

As the crew prepared to board the derelict ship, Black voiced her concerns for the captain’s safety. Ordinarily, he would have agreed, but this mission was different.

“Stay behind and miss out on an opportunity to solve one of the oldest mysteries in Federation history? I wouldn’t take that deal,” Qi said through a wide grin. He didn’t know the captain well, but she didn’t seem like the type to stay on the sidelines.
