8-185: Merchant Freighter Spanial – Hangar

In the Hangar, Gregar and Prrri are in the process of loading a device the size of a large crate into the shuttle.  It is an open frame, with various subsystems inside it, including a large dish, some cylinders, a big metal sphere, thrust nozzles, and various boxes and modules.  The entire thing is painted a dull black.  When Lia arrives it is being manipulated by a mechanical arm, and the Hangar is under gravity.

Kwint invites Lia to come to the shuttle’s Controls. 

“Hey Lia, we’re just loading the Comm Buoy.  We’ll be departing to deploy it shortly.  Would you like to fly co-pilot with me?  We won’t have the loader at the other end and Prrri and Gregar might need a hand.”
