Description
We made planetfall at last! It was a very heavy landing. Our ship was not designed for gravity landings.
We usually operate asteroid hopping missions, you know, pick up a cargo from one of the mining stations
Drop it of at the orbiting processing plant, transport miners from one rock to another. The usual stuff!
Pays OK, but never enough!! Then we get a message that some outpost colony need a specialist chemical production gizmo,yuu know,
the sort you can't get in your local hardware store for obvious legal reasons!!!
Land well away from town they said, we'll send someone to pick it up. They ain't arrived yet, and we've got the small problem of a busted landing leg! Poor old girl ain't built for banging into planets!!!
Just my luck. Any profit will go into fixing up this poor old rig!
Think I'm destined to stay poor for a long while yet! (assuming we don't get arrested for illegal trading first)
Harry Moraan.
Captain of the cargo ship "Starhawk"
