The shockwave will hit in eight to ten hours with winds of around 200 kilometers per hour.

Well, that's really good to hear, chief, but, um, that whole, uh, "come down and swoop you all up to safety" plan that we had...

- That ain't gonna happen.

- Why not?

Our reactor's out.

All of the reactors are out on every ship in orbit.

The fuel pellets are no longer fusing.

Yeah, the old blue goo went and changed the laws of physics on us again.

Our guess is that when that island fusion reactor blew, some system on this planet decided to keep anything similar from happening again.

- What about Miller?

- He's gone.

He helped us so we could bring him here.

He may be done with us now.

That seems a little bit ungrateful, if you ask me.

The light shuttles in the Israel and the Barb use chemical rockets, which means they'll still work.

They're small, but we can send them up and down in rotation, evacuate a dozen at a time.

- That's gonna be tight.

- We'll make it.

Getting you all off the ground is only half the problem.

The Barbapiccola is too low, and it's not rated for atmosphere.

First things first.

Not rated for atmosphere.

What does that mean?

Um...

well, when you all first got here, the Barb...

it went into a low orbit, right, to conserve fuel for the shuttle going up and down to set up the colony.

That low orbit has got more atmospheric drag.

Slows it down, makes it fall.

And normally that's not a problem, because all you would have to do to maintain orbit is speed up.

The Barb's thrusters were not designed for this kind of work, and...

The drive is out.

We can't speed up.

So sooner or later, the Barb will fall and burn.

The Roci's batteries will last longer, but eventually...

We all will.
