Greetings! You've come across a page for my small free-time project. This is an imaginary diary of a scientist, who's participating...

Day 9

During the last 20 hours we've got 500 images from the surface. We established video contact with the probe, and everyone is on their watch, scanning through records in hopes of seeing something alive. Several times already we would take a moving shadow as an animal running away from our probe and would disturb or operators for false reasons.
Everyone is nervous, because it's been quite some time since the probe has started operating, but we haven't seen life so far, not even water — only ground painted with cracks in the hot. According to our sensors, the temperature is at +38.4 C.
Besides, we've faced a technical problem as well — for some reason, one of top cameras isn't working. Right now it doesn't affect us, but if anything happens to its second top camera, we will lose our ability to get panoramic views of the ground. Although there is not much to see, and some of us are even starting to think that this is all we're going to see here. Of course, we can't search through the entire planet to prove them wrong; we can only hope that the parallel chosen isn't a desert going through entire planet, because that would mean that we managed to pick the spot that won't show us anything. Optic observation from the ship doesn't prove this theory — we can see different colors on the surface.
Soon will be my turn to check the data from camera, so I'm going to grab a tea in order not to be too hungry at the screen.
