You get settled into your chair before you begin dictating an entry into your personal log.
Personal log, Stardate 5688.8. I have been advised that I am slated to be a part of the away team that will visit the former site of the Terra Ten colony. The Terra Ten colony is a fascinating study in the seemingly contradictory physics of subspace compression. How the genetic coding of human beings was modified to adapt to the “shrinking” effect of subspace compression is beyond fathoming. And don’t even get me started on how a corresponding decrease in weight of a shrunken individual bypasses the conservation of matter.
The latest information I’ve seen on the Terra Ten colonists is their present average size is seventeen centimeters tall, and that scientists working with the Terra Ten colonists hope to have them restored to full human height in fifty years.
Me and a group of other senior year cadets worked on creating a device for our senior project that could send a continuous stream of collected data while compensating for the wildly changing conditions of the original site of the Terra Ten colony. The Cincinnatus has a working prototype of that design, which is why I’m going to be part of the away team that deploys it. The Cincinnatus should arrive at our destination
