GIGASPARK

Marvel at space through window.



You gaze into the void absentmindedly, taking in the vastness of the space around you. You can't see anything of significance in your vicinity, though one of the stars seems brighter than the others. Maybe you are in a distant orbit around it?

Check out the screen of that console.




The console itself seems to be wired into the pod beside it.

Whatever this monitors use is, it's currently displaying a stream of corrupted characters. It appears to be reeling from some sort of forced external command operation, and has been rendered unresponsive while it recovers.

Investigate pretty pink crystal



You examine one of the glowing crystals sitting in this room. It lets of a slight glow, and seems to be fixed in its position. Some sort of lighting fixture, maybe?

It tastes kind of salty..

Slam the blue-lit button.



With a mechanical sound, the door obligingly opens as you press the button at its center. The Research Room is now opened.

Next.



You take a look inside the next room. This looks like it was the vessel's research lab, but you get the feeling that it was cleared out not long ago.

Open Comms.



You access your control interface and select the Comms button...

Broadcast your favorite songs instead of a distress signal.



You would do that, if you had any musical preferences to speak of. Also, as it happens, if your Comms system wasn't completely unusable at this time.

It looks like there is no one on the ship to receive you. You may have to gain access to the ship's communications system to extend your range.
