The hull heated up quicker than expected which meant the Journeyman was coming in at a steeper angle than intended. There wasn’t much that could be done about it, the micrometeors tore into the fuel tank. Only a lighting fast thruster burn toward the only habitable planet in the system gave a hope of survival. A moment later and the fuel would have been gone.
The skin of the Journeyman creaks and groans under the intense heat of reentry. The inflatable heat shields are holding but some of the super heated air is getting into the meteor puncture holes and making them bigger. We might lose the whole tank if we’re not lucky.
The emergency chutes opened. That’s a relief since they’ve never been used before and mechanisms like that can break down. Another few seconds before we hit the ground. Who knows what that will break.
