What, physically are you capable of doing? can you operate any drones?

How much internal manipulation can you do-- are there teleoperated robots?

/`^o^\

I am glad that you asked! As I have previously stated, I am an autonomous unit and as such I am equipped with a single remotely-operated 'ROBONAUT' humaniform drone.

Just the one.

Budget cuts.

How does your stasis mechanism work?

/`+_+\

As to the other point, the stasis mechanism is quite complex, and explaining it would take entirely too long. Needless to say that it cannot hold the bomb for much longer!


/`=_=\

Unfortunately, Captain Keel's collection of vintage mid-life crisis automobiles was on board the Fennelline, and as such was wiped from existence on this line.

Not that they would be much use in this situation.

Is there anything you can back yourself up onto and then jettison so at least part of you will survive?

/`>o<\

I could make an imprint of my identity onto the ROBONAUT and jettison it, but I would then have no capacity for manual actions on board!

> Can you tell more details of what the bomb looks like?

how many batteries and what's the last digit of the serial number

/`@_@\

The bomb is an oblate, black spheroid. One end is partially disassembled, from our efforts at defusing it. When we were not able to do so, we placed the bomb in stasis and prepared emergency procedures.

There is one radioisotope thermoelectric generator and associated battery visible from the casing breach. The serial number of this bomb is S24B41, though I do not know why you would need this information.

Well, if there's nobody aboard, evacuate the air. There will be that much less oxygen inside to burn.

/`?_?\

That is not exactly true.

You seem to have some misconceptions about the bomb. It is not an explosive device, at least in any traditional sense. This is line-warping technology, the kind of thing which sparked the war in between us and them.

In addition to my first point, I would like to clarify my earlier statement with relation to bomb containment. There are currently fifteen crew onboard, held in stasis along with the bomb. They were attempting to defuse it when it became clear that detonation was imminent; emergency protocols dictated the widest possible spread for a stasis field and they were... there.

I apologize for not being clearer in the first place.


/`T-T\

Ah, if only this were feasible.

Unfortunately I do not believe your zone/line has the technology for teleportation yet; at least that is what it says in my files. But no matter: we can do the next best thing...
