“Anything else, sirs?” Jon asked. He was interested in going aft to look at the generators himself, see just what was left after the NEs had stripped the broken ones to shore up their single functional one.

Maybe, just maybe, there would be enough to cobble together a second with what few spare parts they had on hand or could cobble together from systems they weren’t using and couldn’t use at this point.

“No that’s all Ensign.”

“Aye aye, sirs,” Jon replied, pivoting and heading out of the compartment.

One of Jon’s coworkers came up to Ensign. “So… what now?” asked his fellow Ensign, “The hydrogen fuel is only going to last us for only so long. And who knows how stable the fusion generator really is. We weren’t using exactly perfect condition parts.”

GM

“We’re going to go have a second look. Check the condition of the tanks, check the condition of the generators y’all took apart, see what we might be able to repurpose,” Jon said, beckoning the NE to follow him aft.

“Alright,” said NE Mitchells. Mitchells and Smythe arrived at the tanks first. Using their tricorders, they found the tanks were intact. There were microfractures that were repaired recently, and they were holding. But would need to be reinspected periodically. The only means to fully patch the microfractures was to drain the tank, which wasn’t a viable option. The best they did was several seals that they did with some metal they carefully micro-welded on the outside. They couldn’t do any large welding, for fear of explosion.

GM

“Well, that’s better than nothing,” Jon reflected, checking his tricorder to see the fuel levels in each tank. There should be at least a year’s worth of deuterium for each of the ship’s generators inside, considering the ship was fresh from the yards.
