Quirks and features of the James Webb Space Telescope

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a ten billion dollar space telescope that weighs 14,000 pounds, is the size of a bus, and took decades to construct. It's been in the news recently, you might have heard about it.

The development, launch and deployment of the JWST were fraught with unexpected setbacks, terror and frights, 344 "single-point failures", any one of which that, if they failed during deployment, could doom the entire spacecraft to uselessness, since it orbits far out beyond where any current manned spacecraft could even attempt a repair job.

The fact that it came online as smoothly as it did was something of a surprise to the people in charge. Given the miracle of it making it to space at all, the press coverage of JWST has focused on the positives. But a stroll through the JWST user documentation by a curious reader reveals much that is interesting, or interestingly broken. Such as..

Fun and games with infrared

Specifically, the JWST is an infrared telescope, designed to collect light that's redder than red. The two dedicated imaging instruments are the Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) collecting light from 0.6 micrometers to 5.0 micrometers and the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) collecting light from 5.6 micrometers to 25.5 micrometers. (Though with significant light collected past 25.5 um by filter F2550W)

The wonderful thing about infrared astronomy is that everything emits blackbody radiation, and the hotter it is the more infrared it emits. The unfortunate thing about infrared astronomy is that everything emits blackbody radiation, including your telescope, and self-emission from your telescope can swamp the faint signal from astronomical sources. (Like building a camera out of glowsticks.)

The equilibrium temperature for an object in Earth orbit is about 300 Kelvin. (26C) Everything on the other side of the sunshield passively cools down to 40K, and MIRI is actively cooled by the cryocooler down to a chilly 6K (-267C, -449F) This extends MIRI's seeing range deeper into infrared.

But the mirror is still warm! At the far end, MIRI is significantly compromised by thermal self-emission: (Note log scale!)

This is more graphically illustrated by one of the MIRI commissioning images:

Check out that background glare!

(This is somewhat unfair: the calibration target here is a star, which emits comparatively little light in far-infrared. MIRI is really meant for nebulae and extra-galactic high-redshift objects)

("Why not actively cool the mirror?" Mechanical cryocoolers operate on the very limit of what heat engines are capable of. The MIRI cryocooler draws a fat 180 watts to move 78 milliwatts of heat. Previous infrared telescopes used a fixed amount of expendable coolant (liquid helium or solid hydrogen) to cool the entire instrument package... at the cost of a much smaller primary mirror and a telescope that flat out just stopped working when it ran out of coolant.)

There's something else you might notice about the above series of photographs...

Thanks a lot, Lord Rayleigh

John William Strutt, 3rd Baron Rayleigh was a typical early physicist in that he has a great big pile of "discoveries" by virtue of being the first person to 1) notice something and 2) actually write it down. One of them is the fundamental theorem for the angular resolution of an optical system, the Rayleigh criterion. It is dead simple:

Resolution is roughly equal to 1.22 times the wavelength of the light you're looking at, divided by the diameter of the aperture. Bigger the opening at the front of light bucket, the higher the resolution. Smaller the wavelength of light, the higher the resolution.

(Fun fact: the former Arecibo radio observatory, once the largest single telescope in the world with a 305 meter wide dish, had about the same angular resolution in radio waves as the human eye does in visible light.)

You can imagine the effect this has on an infrared telescope. And sure enough, in the user documentation for the two imaging sensors, it states a pixel scale of 0.031 arcseconds for 0.6 to 2.3 micrometers light wavelength, 0.063 arcsec/px for 2.4-5.0 µm, and a squishy 0.11 arcsec/px for 5.6-25.5 µm.

But this is just how many pixels are on the detector. The resolution gets much worse at long wavelengths, as you can see in the commissioning image, where the extra pixels oversample a progressively vaguer blob. The Rayleigh criterion holds that the 6.5 meter wide JWST primary mirror should manage 0.206 arcsec at 5.32 µm, falling to 0.42 arcsec at 10.85 µm, 0.747 arcsec at 19.29 µm, and an unfortunate 1.014 arcsec at 26.2 µm. One wonders why the designers went to heroic lengths to cool MIRI down to 7 kelvin, instead of using that cryocooler mass and power budget for more detector surface area.

Knowing this, you can spot how the JWST's press team works around the limitations of the telescope. Like how a "look at how good our infrared telescope" commissioning photo happens to use the 7.7 µm mode:

Or how if you browse the photos on the webbtelescope.org site, you will see lots of NIRcam output in the "oooh, ah, new desktop background" category, but not so much MIRI.

(Another amusing detail of MIRI is that bright objects leave afterimages ("latents") on the sensor, so once a week they warm the sensor up to a tropical 20 kelvin before cooling it down again, a "MIRI anneal". You can see when anneals are performed, as well as what the telescope is looking at right now, by viewing the public schedule.)

But this is Webb operating right up to its full specifications. How about something that's actually broken?

NIRSpec my beloved

The Near-Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec) instrument takes incoming light and runs it through a diffraction grating to produce a spectrum. When scientists say that the Sun is 0.77% oxygen, 0.29% carbon, etc, it's not because someone flew a spacecraft over to it and collected a bucket of solar plasma, it's because you can look at the absorption lines in the spectra to figure out its composition.

Spectrometry is also used to measure redshift, a close proxy to distance. When a press release says that a galaxy is "ten million lightyears away", it's not because NASA has a really long tape measure they haven't told anyone about, it's because a spectrometer measured how much cosmological redshift has moved a spectrum line. Naturally, it's not quite as easy as pointing a sensor at a object and getting back a single, unambiguous result. Distant objects are also dim objects, so the spectra will be noisy and chewed up by dust and other contamination its endured in the millions of years its traveled to arrive at our telescopes. Bleeding edge astronomy is thus the practice of designing statistical models to fit to noisy, fragmented data, and then arguing with other astronomers about r^2.

In any event, it's a handy thing to have on a telescope. Naturally, JWST has more than one. In fact every instrument has a spectroscopy mode. Besides the dedicated NIRISS and NIRSpec instruments, both NIRcam and MIRI include diffraction gratings in their filter wheels that smear out incoming light, like looking through a prism:

Pointing the JWST at an object is relatively expensive, since it requires rotating ("slewing") the entire darn spacecraft, and an amusingly complex alignment procedure with the fine guidance sensor and fine steering mirror. Considering how long it would take to shoot a hundred spectra with a conventional fixed slit rigidly mounted to the telescope frame, you can see the appeal of gathering a hundred spectra in a single exposure with "slitless" spectroscopy.

(Longtime space telescope nerds might hear the word "slewing" and involuntarily twitch, recalling that the reaction wheels and gyroscopes were a problem point on the Hubble, requiring several servicing missions, and also significantly affecting operations on the Kepler space telescope. Fortunately, JWST switched to a gyroscope type that has no moving parts, and used some mass budget to install six reaction wheels, up from Hubble's four, giving it three spares.)

You can also see the big downside in the image above, which is there's a hard tradeoff between how long a spectrum can be (and thus its resolution!) before it'll overlap its neighbors and be useless. Most of the slitless modes therefore have two gratings at two different angles, (GRISMR and GRISMC above) but wouldn't it great if you could just block out all that other light?

Thus, the Micro Shutter Array, as seen above. The best of both worlds! Capture many spectra at the same time, while blocking off light you don't want from contaminating the field, using a configurable array of nearly a quarter million microscopic, individually actuated moving shutters.

Lots and lots and lots of tiny little moving parts, installed in the guts of a spacecraft that's orbiting out past the Moon, impossible to access or replace.

Yeah, a bunch of them broke:

When it was handed over to NASA for installation into Webb in 2007, the MSA already had 150 shutters that no longer responded to opening commands in just one of the four submodules.

By the time JWST emerged from commissioning and was declared fully operational in 2022, 15,893 shutters, 7% of the total, had "failed closed." Hilariously, 904 of those failed during post-launch testing, and the authors of that paper note that, on average, if you tell 100 shutters to close, 4 of them will jam shut and no longer work.

This is unfortunate, but fairly easy to work around. What's worse are the shutters that are stuck open:

These permanently open shutters then compromise big chunks of the sensor. Commissioning testing jammed two more of them open, taking the total up to 22. You can imagine that if a few dozen more of these fail-open during routine operation then the entire microshutter array observation mode won't be much more useful than regular slitless spectrography.

And this, right here, sums up the essentially "interim" nature of JWST. After all, it was only supposed to cost $500 million and take a mere nine years from design to launch. All becomes clear in that light. Why give it a shutter array that falls apart in use? Why have the mirror exposed to space, where it gets hit with micrometeoroids? Why only design it to carry ten years worth of fuel? Because it was supposed to be half the price of Hubble!

The 90s was the era of "faster, better, cheaper". JWST was going to be an incremental improvement on a long series of previous infrared telescopes, and a stepping stone to the next one. It wasn't supposed to be an eternal monument to Science, and a financial black hole consuming NASA's entire budget.

So what went wrong?

We shouldn't have built one JWST.

Those 344 single points of failure. Any single one of them can end the mission. There's just one telescope, no backups, no trying again. Bureaucrats are harshly punished for failure, lightly rewarded for success. It's always easier to wait, do more tests, delay the schedule a bit more at a hint of trouble. Engineers can get you to 90% reliable no problem, but getting to 99% reliable takes another decade and nine billion more dollars.

Our techne is just bad at producing flawless machines first try. For the price of one reliable JWST we could have put twenty into orbit... but the first five would have been embarrassing failures. Spars sticking in place, sunshields jamming, thrusters misfiring. To save the shame of $0.5 billion wasted, NASA happily spent $9.5 billion. Why not? Because money spent is invisible, but failure is painfully apparent.

A critical third party can draw unflattering parallels. The crowning achievement of NASA, the Moon Landing... required eleven Apollo launches and twenty Surveyor launches before a single man set foot on lunar regolith! Quite a few of those spacecraft pancaked into the Moon and exploded on the launchpad before we figured out this "space" thing. Three men died! But NASA was on a hard deadline, with a fixed budget, and the only way to get a home run is to take a lot of swings at the ball.

Another comparison is the Space Launch System, NASA's attempt to make the Saturn V again. So far $27 billion has been lit on fire to put exactly one test load into orbit, with the primary contractor now desperate to get out of its contact. Slow, careful, incremental development has completely failed to produce a working launch system.

Meanwhile, SpaceX produced a series of public, embarrassing failures... resulting in the world's only reusable launch system, and as a result has put far more mass into orbit than any country in the world.

The only way to develop a flight system is flight tests.

Space telescope deploy mechanisms meant to work in zero gravity can't be tested on the ground.

They can only be tested in space.

NASA administrators who didn't work during Apollo are too stupid to understand this. Fire them all!

These geriatrics have happily sacrificed science in order to play it safe and secure their own easy retirement. Do we want 15 risky JWST telescopes by 2010, or do we want one reliable one by 2022? The answer is obvious!

For the money we wasted making Webb more reliable, we could have launched a space telescope far outside the disk of dust in the inner solar system, allowing it to see deeper into space than Webb ever could. ESA put an astrometry space telescope just outside Earth orbit, measuring angles between stellar objects, which is the only way to directly measure the distance to the stars. Great first step. The obvious next step is to send more of these telescopes out past Neptune's orbit, to capture better observations with a vastly larger baseline, something that can never be done by an Earthly observatory. Are there any plans to do this? No!

Space exploration is paralyzed by boomers, mired in the mental tarpit of the 1970s, where each gram to orbit is terribly expensive and must be counted on punched cards and summed with slide rules. Meanwhile, SpaceX Starship is on its way to orbit, and each one can carry sixteen JWSTs with room to spare!

The old paradigm is done. Telescopes don't need folding mirrors and exotic materials, they need to be mass produced. There is no excuse not to have a hundred more JWST-class telescopes lined up next to the Texas launch pad waiting for Starship to come online. But as far as I know not a single space mission even mentions it-- that's how afraid they are of risk!

The JWST, with its myriad of fragile components and its staggering price tag, stands as a monument not to our ingenuity but to our inability to let go of outdated ideals.

We must abandon the notion that space is a realm reserved for the flawless and the infallible. Instead, we should embrace the chaos, the unpredictability, the sheer messiness of exploration. Let us launch a thousand telescopes, each a patchwork of parts, each destined to fail in its own spectacular way. For it is only in this embrace of the ephemeral that we can find out what actually works!

Let the JWST be the last of its kind, a relic of a bygone era. The future is unwritten, and it is ours to fill with a symphony of failures, each note a step closer to the stars.

@fasciinating | for a new adventure

Space was an equally beautiful companion and a terrifying one not to be underestimated. Whenever comfort was found in the mundanity, a wrench was thrown in it.

It had been two weeks since their last mission, and the USS Enterprise was drifting in uncharted space at a pace that set everyone on edge.

Jim had already stopped Gaila from snapping at a younger ensign she was supposed to be training while they tweak and fixed one of their commlinks. He was now watching them carefully as they interacted and noticed the moment something shifted in the air between them. The set of their shoulders stiffened, and the Orion's fingers danced across the console as she caught Uhura's gaze, nodding to her. He watched the Lieutenant press the tips of her fingers to her earpiece, and close her eyes for a moment in concentration.

"It's a distress beacon. I think." She finally shared, once she was ready. There was something hesitant in her voice, lacking all the surety it normally did. "It's being picked up on an old channel though. I think we're only catching it because of the repairs."

"Can you tell where it's coming from?" Jim asked, but his tone is subdued - something in her expression when she turned to face him made him regret the question. It settled like a stone in his gut in an inexplainable way. It was the way the color had drained from her cheeks, and the solemn press to her lips. The way her eyes sought Spock's over Jim's shoulder versus keeping his gaze. "Lieutenant." He prompted, again.

"Captain...It's saying it's the USS Kelvin."

If she keeps speaking, Jim catches none of it, struck suddenly as if he's been tossed into a void. There is no sound but the ringing of his own ears. He's vaguely aware of the activities on the bridge, of the crew going through their usual protocols when it comes to picking up a distress signal, but ultimately, they all look to the captain for a decision. The captain who hasn't moved since the source was potentially identified and is currently white knuckling the arm rests of his seat.

Finally, he manages one word, barely audible. "Impossible." Then, he too looks to the one person who always grounds him. Spock. "It's impossible, right?"

Star Trek: Bridge Crew

Original Release: 2017

Developer: Red Storm

Publisher: Ubisoft

Platform: PS4, PC

Bridge Crew was originally released as a VR exclusive, before being patched to allow people to play it without VR. The ideal experience is to play this in VR with motion controllers with three other friends playing it in VR with motion controllers. I have played this with friends, but the VR is way beyond my budget.

The game itself borrows heavily from Artemis Spaceship Bridge Simulator, a LAN game where you essentially create a starship in your house, with each person having a PC to represent their station (or the viewscreen for the captain). I’ve played it at a convention and it’s a great experience, and Bridge Crew is the closest thing that can be done online.

There are four stations in this game: Captain, Helm, Tactical and Engineering. Captain is the simplest role in multiplayer: you get told the orders to pass on to your crew, answer hails and push the red alert button. Most of this role is via the voice chat, giving commands to your crew (and hoping they pay attention).

Helm gets to fly the ship and set warp and “impulse” destinations (what the game calls in-system warp), and is probably the most involved position due to this.

Tactical gets to control the phaser and shield. There’s no phaser arcs or shield arcs, so unfortunately the combat is very basic. You can disrupt enemy weapons, shields or engines via hacking.

Engineering sets power levels and prioritises repairs, this is probably the worst role to have and you don’t even get a clear idea of what is happening due to not having access to sensor data like the other three roles.

In singleplayer, you play as the captain but can give orders to the crew. The AI is very basic and some actions can reset other orders. The helm officer won’t avoid obstacles, so for some situations, you can take over the station and control it directly (although you can’t give orders from there, you have to return to the Captain’s position). It’s not the ideal way to play, but it gets the job done and is far better than not having the option.

The main (and incredibly short) 6-mission story takes place on the USS Aegis, a ship from the Kelvin timeline. The bridge itself is wonderfully made and fits the aesthetic while adapting it to work for a game like this. The missions are fine, but after this all that’s left is random missions. There’s not a lot of content in this game.

The game does include additional ships you can use in the random missions: the prime timeline original TOS-style Enterprise and (as part of DLC) the Enterprise D. The TOS bridge absolutely looks the part and is very authentic, although you definitely need to use the help overlay to work out which buttons do what. It’s difficult to use, but it gets the feel of being in The Original Series really well.

The Enterprise D bridge takes a few more liberties in its interface, mainly making the LCARS displays more game-like to help it play a lot better. This also makes the engineer’s job (renamed as “operations”) better by improving the repair side of things by assigning damage teams.

Bridge Crew is a great start for a multiplayer Star Trek game, but would have been nice with more in depth gameplay for weapons and shields, as well as far more structured missions.

Temporal Cold/Hot Wars Theorizing

Thinking about how most civilizations that range from moderately above to far beyond the 24th/25th century Federation's tech level have mellowed out and largely seem to not be expansionist for its own sake or prone to zero sum thinking, it leaves us with the problem of the Temporal Cold War. So here's a take, see what you make of it internet land.

Its clear that at some point prior to the Burn, the Vulcans and Romulans have mostly reconciled. Time Travel technology of a sort that was utilized and then abandoned in the later half of the 2Xth centuries was involved to some extent in policing and attempting to subvert the Prime timeline. The Romulan agent who attempted to assassinate Khan in Strange New Worlds is food for thought.

Her motive seems to be Romulan supremacism. Which in some sense is the typical motive of the Federation's anti-pluralist enemies. However, I have to wonder if the Temporal Cold War is 1. not intrinsically a thing that originates with the spread of temporal technology in the 2Xth centuries but rather is something that is happening all over the timeline just about as soon as someone figures out that they can go back in time by looping around a sufficiently large gravity well at warp.

And 2. that a lot of it, and this is more me having fun with the idea here, is motivated in large part by the gradual decline in overt great power competition and supremacist thinking and the implicit "victory" of the Federation. Whether they sign on the dotted line or not, the maturation and increased precision of temporal technology comes along at the same time that particular factions in formerly imperial minded polities, like the Romulans, are watching more and more of their people choose peaceful coexistence and reconciliation.

At that point the only way to avert this "decline" via peaceful assimilation, is to erase the Federation as a viable entity from history. The Sphere Builders for instance try to use the Xindi as a proxy for this.

Sera likely represents another attempt at this for the cause of Romulan ascension, although its equally possible, perhaps even more likely that she comes from an earlier point on the timeline using cruder methods of time travel (like warping around a large gravity well) since she appears to have been stranded in 1992 after failing to find and assassinate Khan and unable to return to her present to ascertain what went wrong.

Of course because the past wasn't what she expected, she may have also feared returning to a present/future in which she wouldn't be recognized by her handlers and unable to prove to their satisfaction who she was, or worse, they would accept her proof and then throw her in an oubliette for intensive study.

Finally, while the Federation and other parties to the armistice that "ended" the Temporal Wars may have destroyed their technology, it seems unlikely that that is actually the real end of it all so much as some outside neutral party is policing the advancement of the timeline such that as desirable as it may be to prevent avoidable catastrophes like the Burn or the destruction of Vulcan in the Kelvin timeline, it must be a tenet of the consensus among time traveling civilizations that nobody gets to go back and tinker Although it is interesting to speculate about when and how different intrusions that aren't repaired such as Narada starting the Kelvin timeline are permitted to spawn branching timelines.

Crashing Trust – Kelvin x Neutral Reader – Part 1/?

Prompt: You trust Kelvin to the bone, but maybe he is not the person you believe he is.

Tag: Angst

Your eyes looked up at the sky for a moment, seeing the heavy gray clouds move and you hoped it wouldn't start to rain, not yet. You sighed, feeling a bit cold on your face, but at least not on your body, not after walking so much on the island. You thought, walking again, with some of your weapons on you, studying the place, alert for any danger, while your head wondered if Kelvin had caught something in your absence. You denied to yourself, you knew he had done it. His skills acquiredafter years as a Boy Scout prior to the army were evident, he took prey from any corner and knew the use of most plants, whether they were edible, medicinal or poisonous.

You trusted him, that clumsy boy who little by little had recovered some of his faculties, just a bit of hearing and speaking, although there was still something blank as far as memories of him were concerned. There was a great majority of things that he still did not remember, but sometimes he would get up shouting, happy, with a new memory. He was kind, funny, caring and had trusted you as much as you trusted him. And you guys had even half flirted once. It was an island in the middle of nowhere, it was to be expected that you would flirt a bit, you were too close sometimes.

Your steps followed a hare, in the distance, but the animal heard you before, escaping. You growled, pacing the place, looking around, seeing the chopper in pieces on the ground. You passed, on one side, giving the military salute to the grave of your partner Fisheye, and Walter, the pilot. You had buried them a short time after falling there, a few months ago already.

You kept studying the place. It was something you did frequently, to keep yourself busy. You looked at a tree, the one where the helicopter had given the last blow at that time, before falling to the ground, and that it had half split it. It had almost no leaves anymore, partly because the blow had damaged it beyond repair, partly because it was autumn.

But your eyes fixed on something that was dark between the branches, and that you had not seen before because of the foliage. You celebrated in silence to not attract enemies, you were sure it was a backpack. It could be that of one of your fallen comrades, or even of Kelvin, that detail was irrelevant, what mattered was the content. Those backpacks were loaded with useful things, precisely for cases like this.

It took you a long time to get it down, you were forced to climb a tree that didn't look very safe, and the last thing you wanted was to fall in there, break something, and die of gangrene. But you managed to climb a little, hook it with your spear and pass it a rope, before lowering yourself and pulling, tearing it from the branch where it had been.

When it was on the ground you celebrated again, checking it, seeing the label with a K. You knew that each backpack had the letter of their code names, and the only one with the K was Kelvin. You opened it, more than anything to make sure it had the contents, check that no dangerous animal had nested there, or rotted or something. Everything was fine.

Among the things you found a hermetic bag with some content, a notepad like yours, a pen, a tactical knife, matches, useful things. You were euphoric, there was even a lot of medicine. You checked the notebook, it would be good for you to write things down, since yours was running out of pages.

And turning the pages, distractedly, you saw something written in the middle. You turned the pages back and stayed reading a familiar letter.

“Helicopter 1: Pilot Hubble. Soldier Gore. Raven Soldier. Private Cory. Destination: Eliminate. Method: C4 Installed in rear compartment. Detonation by control. Status: Stable.

Helicopter 2: Pilot Walter. Fisheye Soldier. Soldier Bucky. Destination: Experiment. Method: Sleeping pills. Leave outside Cube. Status: Stable.

Radio code to SaThe 885 510 931 074 Password #Puffton#”

You stayed static, reading that. You didn't understand well, but you understood enough. Kelvin's code name wasn't there, but yours, Bucky, was. The word EXPERIMENT resonated in your brain like poison. You didn't know what the Cube was, but you had seen enough of the mutants to associate them with some kind of experiment on the island. “SaThe” disintegrated in your mind. You had read a few things in the bunkers where you had been, in classified papers, and the word "Sahara Therapeutics" appeared next to Puffton, too much.

Your blood boiled in anger and betrayal. Kelvin hadn't gone there as a member of the rescue team, he had gone undercover as the Pufftons' competition to get information, experiment on you, kill your team and who knows what else. The man you had believed was a good soldier, next to you, was a lie. You put everything together, with hate and quickly walked back to your cabin, with the darkness of a hundred cannibals in your steps.

As soon as you got there, you saw him near the campfire, next to some fish he had caught. His ears couldn't quite hear you, he turned to you and smiled seeing you close, but you kicked him hard, making him stumble and fall on his ass to the ground. You kicked his hip hard enough for him to shrink into himself, covering his head in fear. You crouched down a bit to punch his arms a few times, hearing him groan and say “Stop” several times.

"You are fucking trash!" You stepped away slightly, furious and anguished “Son of a bitch, traitor! Killer!"

"What…?" He barely looked at you, very scared, still defending himself on the ground "I don't understand"

“I don't care if you don't understand me! I hate you! And I thought you were my friend!" You half sobbed, your trust breaking into a thousand pieces, as well as your heart.

“I do nothing…” He shyly extended his hand towards you “Honey… Explain me”

"Not honey, not anything!" You threw his backpack at his head, watching him hold it, confused "Trash" You threw the notepad in his face "Take your damn notepad and check what YOU wrote"

His confused and somewhat hurt eyes went from you to the small notebook that he had gathered from the floor, turning pages. Until he found what he had written. He read and reread, knowing it was his handwriting. His confused expression dimmed slightly, as some memory fragments flitted back into his mind. Kelvin stood still, his mouth open, searching for words he didn't quite have in his vocabulary.

“I can…explain…” He looked at you with sad eyes.

“I don't want a fucking explanation, Kelvin! You put a C4 on our teammates! You were going to kill me along with Walter and Fisheye! What fucking explanation can justify that!? None!" You furiously kicked his foot “Double agent, traitor!”

“Please… let me explain…” He reached out to you, pleading “I…” But he stayed still, silent. Even if he explained, he wasn't going to undo the fact that he had actually planned that. That he had forgotten about it, and the reasons why he had decided to do so, no longer mattered.

"Get out of here!" You took the fish and threw it on him “Take your damn dinner, your stupid backpack and go! Go away because I'm about to chop off your head, you son of a bitch! I see you around the island and I swear I will attack you like a cannibal!"

"But..." He stood up awkwardly, despairing "I love you... And... We'll survive better... together"

“Do you love me now!? You didn't give a shit about that when you wrote me down in your stupid little notebook as an experiment subject!" You sobbed again “I will survive alone! And I'll make it easier knowing I don't have a bloody traitor living under my roof!"

“But…” He tried to get closer to you, sobbing too “I really love you… I don't want to leave… Forgive me… forgive me… please…”

"I'm not going to forgive you! I hate you! I do not want anything with you! Go away!" You took your axe, firmly, ready to attack him “Get out! I said get out, you ungrateful deaf asshole!”

He looked at you, crying, almost more than you. He lowered his eyes, holding his backpack better against his chest and turned, walking slowly, moving away from you with a slight limp, the product of the pain in his leg, caused by one of your kicks. He kept walking away, crying, listening to you cry hard, knowing that you must be really loud for his poor hearing to hear you so clearly.

Kelvin regretted what he had done long before he got on the helicopter, regretted his decisions, his betrayal of his squad, something that had led him to lose you, his mate and the only source of security and comfort on the island. He was now alone, at the mercy of enemies and even at the mercy of your anger.

HOUSE DIARY: JUNE 2023

I retired for this place. It was a year ago that I made the announcement that I was moving to Key West. I loved my work in Indianapolis but I didn't want to go back there. This month, we are still installing that boatload of artwork brought down in May.

Vincent just watched the two silently, he really didn't understand what they were talking about or why they didn't like each other. He just decided not to ask, he hadn't been present the entire time so something could've happened well he was absent.

And he knew sometimes it was best not to ask what he'd missed, as it might cause another fight to break out over the same subject. So, he was going to avoid that and just accept whatever was going on.

"I do not have to abide by that rule if I don't want to, they can't stop me." Nines replied calmly, he and Sixty may be the closest to be related for androids, but he just didn't care to get along with the RK800. And there was no way Dan or Peter could convince him to spend time or be nice to Sixty when he didn't feel it was necessary.

His relationship with the other was somewhat better and the two RK800s got along decently, so that was good enough for him.

"The military may have ordered all units to be deactivated or destroyed due to the deviant situation, but they didn't make sure Cyberlife did the job correctly. Some of the more advanced models and common ones they sent to stay with people they knew would keep quiet, so they wouldn't have to destroy them. If the deviant problem was fixed, they could easily resell the units back to the military under the guise they were brand new." John explained, clearly he had no issue revealing Cyberlife's less then legal plans as not much would come of it if word got out, the company was already dead.

Hugh gave a nod to confirm what John had said, he knew the company had planned to use the situation to make some extra money well they worked to regain customer trusts. So having less units to replace would give them the funds to keep operating until they had a customer base again. He could agree it was a good idea, even if it was illegal.

Dan took a moment to check his arm, it was still intact and only the skin had retracted as it wasn't able to handle the impact. He nodded as he listened to her, watching his skin recover his white plating to make sure he hadn't damaged it or lost any.

"Makes sense." He replied as he shifted his attention back to her, having confirmed his synthetic skin was fine. "Oh, that was Kelvin, or at least that's what the tag on his vest said. We don't know if that's actually his name, but he seems to respond to it." Dan shrugged, he felt the other android was just reacting to being given a task, and didn't care to correct them if Kelvin wasn't his real name.

"Peter pulled him from the junkyard, booted him up, and he didn't give him a chance to repair him. He was already on his feet wanting to help. So, he's mute and deaf thanks to suffering major head trauma that he refuses to get repaired. He can't wirelessly communicate either, so not even I can speak with him properly." The PL600 shook his head, the android's past was a mystery they'd likely never know.

"All we know is he's a common military unit that was shut down before the deviant situation, likely due to the damage his brain suffered and the change in personality it caused." He wished they knew more, but tracking down the past of a military unit was impossible, so he knew they'd be stuck with what little they had.

"He is deviant as sometimes he'll refuse to carry out an order, but other then that he's always looking for something to do and sometimes we just have to give him a random task." Dan shook his head, it still surprised him how a deaf android could move so quietly.

"We have a lot of oddball androids here, some custom units based on fictional characters or just preferences, he's the strangest one as he'd the only one we have no background of any sort on." But thankfully Kelvin was one where that really didn't matter as he hadn't shown any violent tendencies, he was more like a child then anything.

While Rook didn’t represent a threat, she definitely wasn't short on comments.

"Bishop's knitting. How do I even get myself in these situations?"

"Ungrateful bird." The android only briefly glared at her. It wasn't his fault if he wore the face of a monster.

"What's the matter now? I was under the impression this household promoted healthy siblings relationships."

Bishop doubted the taunting would distract Nines, but he really wanted to make it clear that he wasn't the only one who could read people to a decent degree.

It didn't mean he cared about their motivations, but he was aware of them.

"Oh, I see now that I'm playing cards with a rather exclusive group. Though I can't help questioning how the two of you were allowed to roam freely. Are you fugitives like my copycat?"

It seemed like a legit question to him. The military wasn't exactly known for giving up on important assets for nothing. They couldn't afford to let him, the most dedicated man to have ever lived, go away, Bishop had to wonder how they'd give the androids up.

"Well, we've got to try." Rook replied, "I went through what's left of his base and it gave me nightmares, Strasky is going through so much worse. And I still want to help those other people, even if some of them are annoying."

It was basic decency, really. Rook didn't mention the new android at first, assuming they were all able to detect each other to some extent. Dan's reaction quickly proved her wrong and prompted her to switch to her flames form the time being. She didn't want to end up like that wall.

"...Yes, Willow does that sometimes. She can keep track of each one of you guys and all the appliances too while she's in the area. That's why she's so calm. She can also probably go through all your circuits and stuff, but that'd be rude." Rook explained, "Who's that guy?"

Chapter III: The Crimson Star

Section III: Star Data and a Bigger Picture

Just then, Sophie walked over and tapped on the main console.

“Alright, everyone gather around. Femi, Chiamaka, and I have done some repairs and gotten the database functional again. Let’s see if we can learn more about this planet.”

They clustered around the improvised command station. Valentina cradled a baby dino in her arms, while Femi and Chiamaka set aside their welding gear.

Sophie pulled up a star map projection—an image of a somewhat dim, yellowish star appeared on the screen.

“We re-analyzed the data on the parent star,” she said, circling a point on the display. “It turns out it’s not a G-type star like our Sun, but a K-type star.”

Chen Ruolan frowned.

“A K-type star… so that means it’s cooler than our Sun and has a red-orange hue?”“Exactly.” Sophie zoomed in on a spectral curve. “Its surface temperature is roughly between 4,000 and 5,000 Kelvin, compared to the Sun’s 5,800. That’s why the daylight has that red-orange cast. Plus, this planet isn’t too far from it, so with the strong greenhouse effect, we end up with extreme heat and high CO₂—this hyper-tropical environment.”

Watanabe Haruto jumped in:

“And the planet’s volume and mass are how much bigger than Earth’s?”“From our readings, about 1.3 times Earth’s mass,” Sophie said, swiping her hand to reveal a string of data. “That means stronger gravity. The atmospheric pressure might be around 1.5 times Earth’s. Combine that with CO₂ levels dozens of times higher than ours, and you have a perfect setting for runaway plant growth.”“No wonder it’s like a more extreme Jurassic,” Chen Ruolan sighed. “Well, how do we use this information to help ourselves?”
