Week 1 of activities has started!
"Hi, crews! I am happy to see you have all settled in with your quarters, and that you are starting to find your way around on the beautiful Lopez space station. We have not seen Captain Gulliver around for a while. If you see or have seen him, please inform your crew leaders of his last known location. In the meantime, enjoy your summer camp! This ship runs itself. I'm sure nothing will go wrong."
The lights on the ship dim down to make sure everyone sees the red emergency lights flashing, just in case the loud sirens weren't enough to let everyone on board know that something was up. If you find yourself near one of the information panels, you will quickly learn why as those are currently displaying the following message:
ASTEROID WARNING

After a while, the sirens fade away and the lights return to normal before the intercom system switches on again.
"Sorry. We may have known about this for a while, and now you know it too. Welcome to your real mission: with captain Gulliver currently missing, we will need to rely on ourselves to prepare the station's four escape pods, one per crew. You will be spending the next three weeks gathering parts, and preferably we will be done when the three weeks are up. Otherwise..."
The voice on the intercom is replaced by several seconds of static noise.
"Galaxolotls and Actually, Neverminds, both crews to The Observatory please.
International Space Cetaceans and Moon Bunnies, report to The Bridge."
