to success. On the front of the saw unit cube Theo tirelessly flailing children spinning top, and Pontius recorded modified gravity of the cube, fixing on punched tape with the recorders. The curve has the ideal parabola with the highest and lowest point.
– Yes, it’s just a vibration. On electric waves no reaction! – Theo said.
– Yes! – Agreed to Pontius.
– Look, Pontius, in outer space, we will be able to more precisely metered energy.
– How to bind to gravity?
– I do not know, but the work should bear in Space.
– It is necessary to prove Theo.
– And you’ll do it.
– I?! – Pontius surprised. – Yes, yes, that’s you! And the sooner, the better for us! … Theo was standing in front of Sonoma pose schoolboy with his head down.
– You’re not a boy, Theo. Without proving the possibility of creating dispensing system receiver, you aspire to the station.
– Only tall can lead a perfect experience, away from the noise.
– This is not proof! In terms of the energy crisis, the votes are, and now my consent will decide to give you station or not.
– We can simultaneously probe the cosmos in search.
– Your idea sounds like a baby crying over the impending cataclysm!
– Forgive me. Dream, but a solution to this problem will help us
– Theo was playing to the audience, as the Son, and he kept everything in Pontius secret.
– I foresaw this, so the question put to the Council as search for new forms of energy.
– What’s that?
– Will conduct their experiments. Eyes lit up with joy.
– But do not forget, your goal – a new kind of energy. Theo was in a hurry to share the news with Pontius. Jumping over puddles, he went to the house of mathematics. Pontius was sitting at the calculations. He racked head over the nature of the phenomenon, when the doorbell rang. On the threshold Theo stood.
– I hasten to please you! – Started with a threshold astrophysicist, we were allowed. Pontius looked down.
– What is not gay?
– I cannot determine anything.
– To repeat the experience in space and, in addition, our goal – the search for new forms of energy.
– How? Well, that changes everything.
Sitting in the kitchen at dinner, the two were discussing a plan of action. Theo wanted to expand the expedition, but the dream has limited the number of participants and allowed only two of them.
So, Pontius and Theo the next day stood in front of a catfish outside the Council of Planets.
– Things are going, my friends, is the best. Plant-based platform will allow you to gather all the necessary equipment there on non-transparent helmet and hooked it over the ring junction. Theo followed suit. They have to wait patiently until the automatic freed interior of air mixture. When the door is moved to the side of the dome, Scientists came to the site. Like silver ghosts, they stood motionless in the concourse of the stars.
– Where do we start, Theo?
– With the inspection station. Hulk of the factory buildings towered artful transport routes and assembly lines, just like that, without roofs and walls. Alas, the vagaries of nature on Gaia does not apply here, and works do not need the atmosphere. Under ideal conditions of weightlessness and
high vacuum quality of the products has reached the highest level strength and reliability. Now the plant was, as they say, in a preserved state. Suddenly the light flashed everywhere.
– Apply power! – Said Theo.
– It is necessary to turn off unnecessary lights.
– Who will go? – Asked Pontius.
– All the same! – Theo said, heading for the bunker supply.
– Wait. Give me better!
– Go.
Pontius slowly walked to the hatch door. He moved rhythmically sticking magnetic soles of his suit to the metal platform unnatural, like a robot. If, at that moment was atmosphere, the steps being hit on a metal beater as a bell. But Cosmos absorb sound. In the dead silence of silver Figure man seemed a ghost walking across the desert floor, still frozen between the stars and the blue ball Gaia. In opening the door he went, like a ghost in the cave. Pontius was one. From this was somehow not on itself. Whopper metal pressed on the psyche, causing fear of something. Incomprehensible anxiety possessed people. But then he took a fading one by one, cascades of light lamps, which remained in place a dim glow of light duty. Light enough for their inspection. Theo felt the work and Pontius cheered. Spirit, an inexplicable fear has passed at all, as only a transparent helmet it seemed on the surface.
– Let’s hire a place for the laboratory, and then think about what to do next. – Suggested by Theo.
They started looking for him. The factory was located five stories complex, takes ninety percent of the space launch pad seemed Shuck compared to the rest of the enormity of dormant plants. On the top floor, which adjoined platform, housed offices and assembly shop. After examining a number of rooms, they came to the door with the inscription: “Entrance is strictly forbidden. “Theo looked at Pontius. Work Experience in the creation of the plant he did not remember anything like this. door is not opened. It was locked from the inside.
– I’ll get the welder. – Said Pontius. Theo gesture stopped him.
– No need. – And, looking at the surprised mathematics, he pressed the red button near the glistening knob, the door at the same moment, moved away from the doorway and opened easily. Inside, in the dim light of a lantern they found shelves, completely littered with human body parts. Horrifying picture appeared before the eyes of Pontius. He broke down and fell to the metal without memory. The concepts of weightlessness there, and his body was to sail from side to side, holding magnet soles. Theo took him by the shoulders and began to stir up trouble. Large drops of sweat-drenched face was suffering.
– Pontius, Pontius! Come on, do not stick to your guns! Come on! Pontius opened his eyes slowly. In view painful felt fright and despair.
– Come on! – It bothered the Theo.
– What is it? – He whispered.
– This is just a part.
– Are you kidding me?
– Pontius, you’re an intelligent and gifted man, look at yourself. Pontius made an effort to look at the “arm” that he has already managed to bring a colleague. With the shoulder at a location where the hand was “cut off”, hung dozens of wires that ran inside a hollow solid “bones”. Pontius with a sigh of relief robot inspected the replacement part. Then, emboldened, I was not afraid. Now he understood the meaning of the warning labels.
– How Pontius, in my opinion, a suitable place for the laboratory.
Pontius nodded his head in approval. But he did not want live and work in this room.
– Only for housing we’ll find something else.
– Come on, there are many rooms. Pontius chose a room opposite. So, they found a box near the platform of twenty rooms for prelaunch adaptation of astronauts. Each cabin had everything we needed, from a set of bed linen to wear. And most importantly, the box is sealed, which was especially important for create a climate and atmosphere. The only inconvenience in the company was the fact that the station has not had a system Artificial
