The AICD sensed a bio signal that came closer to it's location as the engineer entered the docking bay. It recognized him as one of the Equinox's crew and didn't resist as he powered up it's personality core.
After a short talk X-ATM092 advised the engineer how to install the laser guns and how to calibrate them for its targetting system and its power core.
Once the equipment was implemented into it's systems it added a program to the OS of the AICD and turned of the personality core by itself.
The AICD left the Equinox's docking bay and headed for the coordinates of the professor's last location.
Once it arrived it activated the lasers. At first the lasers were overwhelmed by the large powercore and almost combusted. But the new program easily adjusted the energy flow and started to cut it's way through the thick layer of ice.
After a few minutes it reached the depth it was heading for and closed in to the professors location, creating a path a shuttle could easily pass. After passing through it eminated liquid carbon dioxide from it's cooling system in order to freeze the tunnel again and make it a safe passage.
Finally the professor and his party were freed. Even the corpse of Calisto was retrieved, even though the crushed body didn't look human anymore.
The Equinox has managed to leave the atmosphere of the planet, with one planetary engine barely working. Fortunately Commander Sarah Coyle was already waiting on Med.Force.Two and took over the injured.
