The Vega's return

[Quiron]

Jeremy and his team seemed really busy in the powerplant deck. They moved from panel to panel, checking out indicators frequently, searching for any anomalies. From an outsider view Jeremy looked like a conductor of an orchestra, pointing out instructions and directions with emphasized hand movements to his subordinates.

"Mr. Adams, over here!" he noticed and beckoned the arriving captain. "I was about to call you to make a report." he showed his datapad towards John. "The current status of the reactor right now is somewhat satistfactory. Analyzing the data we received from the indicators, my prediction is that the powerplant will overheat in roughly 32 hours. I'm sure I don't need to tell you that it would result blewing us up to smithereens." he grinned. "However, this will be probably enough to reach Sirius sector. Our next objective should be that we gather every boron or cadmium on board to cool down this beauty once we terminate hyperspace travelling. My girls and boys will do the rest." he sounded like a proud father while looking around on his team. "Oh, and just in case I would suggest to prepare the escape pods for the the VIP personnel if anything goes wrong. We can never know."
