Greetings
Lets get right into it for today. Starting with task 1: find a way to implement the gas into a plasma engine. The way I see it is that a plasma engine is an engine that turns a propellent into plasma, a sort of superheated gas that becomes its own state of matter. The amount of energy released from this "evaporation" of a gas propels the many ships of the Sirius Sector. Considering I'm am not as specialized of an engine designer as some of my coworkers here, I asked them how I would go about completing this task. I've made a few friends within the Engine lab, considering I've spent most of my time in that lab and the Organics lab. One of my lab partners, a really intelligent guy by the name of Dr. Edward Phoenix, who happens to be an eccentric engine specialist AND pyrotechnician, has helped me figure out how to integrate gases as a propellant. The gases that we are testing are H-3/H-Fuel as control and the green/orange gas I encountered yesterday. Using adapted h-fuel cells filled with the green gas, we fired up an engine and it gave out a nice emerald plasma trail, much darker than the flame produced by burning the gas. It was a success, but I feel like the gas would be better suited as a thruster. Task 2 and 3 have been deferred tomorrow, since I've introduced the H-3 today and results usually take 10-12 hours to occur. 'Till next time, agents!
Goals for tomorrow:
Create a better containment solution for the organisms and the gas
