:08:01
What have we got?
:08:03
Signal received.
:08:05
SOS, critical.
:08:07
The signal's degraded.
It's taken five days to get here.
:08:10
Dispatch misrouted it?
:08:14
This isn't from dispatch. It's a direct call.
:08:20
Direct? We don't get direct. Origin?
:08:23
Pohl 6822.
:08:26
I'm getting a little more.
:08:28
Call letters for a merchant enterprise.
:08:30
It's Titan 37.
:08:32
It's a mining operation.
:08:37
This is way past the colony outpost.
:08:40
Sweetie, pull up all records
on Titan 37, Pohl 6822.
:08:44
Titan 37: lunarmining operation.
:08:47
This moon was expelled from orbit
around its original starsystem
:08:51
- and is now classified as a rogue body.
- Rogue moon.
:08:55
There's a lot of gravitational
instability in that sector.
:08:58
Mining operation was abandoned
:09:00
when rogue moon drifted
into unmapped space.
:09:03
Complete crew evacuation
five years, three months ago.
:09:08
An SOS from an abandoned mine?
:09:10
Distance to distress call location:
3,432 light years.
:09:18
If we wanna answer this call
in our lifetimes we'll have to jump.
:09:22
We haven't jumped in three tours.
:09:24
I'm not jumping this crew
for anything uncertain.
:09:26
I want a name with some authority.
:09:30
If there is none, this is a no-go.
:09:33
Scanning foridentification.
:09:36
Transmission signature:
Karl James Larson.
:09:39
Karl.
:09:40
Karl Larson!
:09:42
You know him?
:09:45
Worst nightmare I ever met.
:09:49
Mr Vanzant, plot us a course, please.
:09:53
Yes, sir.
:09:54
Dimension drive fully charged.
:09:56
