+++BEGIN TRANSCRIPT+++ So today started like any other day. I woke up, had some tapioca pudding for breakfast, then reported to work. My first assignment was to unclog a waste filtration pump located in compartment 23-461-07. No major issues there. Next up on the list was a malfunctioning port anterior running light on the hull. I geared up, transferred through the airlock and made my way to the malfunctioning running light. The repair was an easy-peasy bulb replacement. The real trouble started when I attempted to re-enter the airlock. The AI running airlock 06-215-01 won't open the external hatch to allow me re-entry. It's convinced that I'm not authorized access. In fact, it has informed me that I am classified as space debris and therefore a physical security threat to the Escanaba. I've tried arguing with it, but it won't budge. This situation is complicated by the fact that all external ship's RF communications are down due to routine maintenance. No one is responding via voice comms and I have no network access. And so, here I find myself, tethered outside airlock 06-215-01, updating my in-suit personal logbook and staring at my air reserve indicator as it slowly creeps down from 16% to 15%. I should probably get back to arguing with the airlock. I swear, I'm really not space debris. +++END TRANSCRIPT+++ # gemini://cosmic.voyage/Escanaba/log003.txt
