Derek Jackson, your boss, and owner of Jackson Salvage, promises all of you that the contract he signed with Omnicor will pay off soon. Supposedly, the contract ensures that all future salvage jobs are fully funded by Omnicor, resulting in better equipment, better pay, and ultimately, more work for you.So far, zilch.Kronos Cluster is not the type of place where you want to hang around for long if you don’t have an income. Especially in the neighborhoods salvage workers can afford. But when the salvage opportunities are good, they’re very good. Good enough that the risk is worthwhile.A popular salvager hangout, “Sully’s”, is near The Vine: Kronos Cluster’s space dock. You’re there, enjoying a dinner and drink, when your muses relay a message from Mr. Jackson. Your muses automatically verify the message and pop-up the video link in the corner of your FoV. The metadata indicates it was recorded less than 10 minutes ago.Jackson: The drought is over! Team 3, we’ve got a unique opportunity, and I think it’s right up your alley. I’ve just received a noticed from OmniCor regarding an old habitat that is moving to a perfect intercept point. They want you to rendezvous with it, board it, and salvage whatever you can. Once you get your ship fired up, connect to channel 401.844 and I’ll have the coordinates uploaded.Jackson’s message ends with an animation showing the orbits of Saturn, Rhea, Kronos Cluster, and the habitat, labeled GDS-43 Torus. GDS-43 Torus will be passing very close to the Kronos Cluster; if you miss this opportunity, the eccentricity of its orbit indicates it will be years before it’s this close again.</blockquote>
