Alpha Prime 2007
Somewhere
deep in space, hidden in the infinity of the Universe, there is a
treasure trove just waiting to be opened by the eager hands of a daring
explorer. A mere asteroid, a piece of rock, a speck of dust lost in the
boundless void, yet priceless to humanity. For under its frozen crust
there are rich veins of the most precious substance known to man
hubbardium. This liquid metal is a key ingredient in the fuel of
interstellar ships, thus enabling mankind to spread across the Universe
from its base on Earth. Its importance is the reason why it is
monopolized by the State Business Federation, a huge multinational
corporation which is given control over every single step in production
of hubbardium, from exploration to distribution.
And so, when this asteroid, subsequently named Alpha Prime, and its
fabulous riches were discovered, the Corporation quickly came, and a
huge, sprawling base was promptly built on its surface as the giant
mining machines begun its work. But all was not well on Alpha
Prime. While its hubbardium veins might be plentiful, some of them were
also dangerous. They slowly intoxicated the minds of human workers, and
damaged the positron brains of the artificial ones, including the
central computer. Conditions on the base became highly unstable and the
Corporation finally decided to seal off the entire facility and leave.
Only the most basic maintenance and security, including weapons
systems, were left turned on. To prevent the base falling into
ruin .and to prevent illegal prospectors from entering and resuming the
mining operation. But they came anyway. The lure of the
unimaginable wealth of Alpha Prime was too strong. Moreover, some of
these illegal visitors were naturally quite resistant to the effects of
bad hubbardium. So they arrived, they circumvented security protocols
and partially resumed mining. Their use of hubbardium was rather
different, though. They didnt want to produce fuel; they came to make
hubbardium into a powerful drug, worth its weight in gold on the black
market. If the operation went successfully, they would become
multimillionaires. But they miscalculated. Alpha Prime hubbardium was
apparently too strong and started to exert influence even over the
hardened minds of the miners. There was something very, very weird
about this asteroid. It didnt take long before they started to become
desperate and called for help. One of those on the team, Warren, called
his old friend, Arnold, a seasoned, hubbardium resistant explorer, and
asked him to come and help them out of their dire condition. And
even though YOU, Arnold, already quit some time ago, you were finally
persuaded, less by the obvious desperation on Warrens face than by
appeals to consider your tight financial situation by Livia, your
girlfriend.
