Ship's Logs[edit]
Jimmy's Personal Logs[edit]
March 17, 2133
It is strange to be in space since I had spent all my life on earth. But with this new galaxy that we are in. The technology is absolutely great. I've already downloaded enough information on the advanced robotics to work on construction for mother's new body. I hope the necessary transfer will work and there will be no complications with the new technology. It is supposed to be a surprise so hopefully Fynch will not see this log entry.
I am also looking into bio regeneration technology I might be able to grow Fynches arm back.
I think he likes his new mechanical arm so I'll work on another one where he will be able to put his real arm in so he won't lose any of its abilities. Of course the only way to achieve this is to use nano replicator technology which is a new technology that I was able to find. I sort of borrowed the technology by accidentally accessing an alien starship's computer the last time we went to trade planet. They are a very interesting alien race, they kind of look like crocodiles but walk around on two legs "They look very scary". Well that is all "End Log".
