Entry 15 - Day 6


There's another ship out there!  They must've picked up the Aurora's distress signal and sent a message to check up on us.  I remember hearing about some Alterra captains having a reputation for misusing their distress calls for non-emergency situations, so I can't blame them for being cautious.  

It's so good to hear another human voice that isn't pre-recorded though.  Whoever this Captain Avery Quinn is, he's alive, out there somewhere and looking for me.

I try not to hope too much, because I think the disappointment might kill me faster than starvation, but the longer I can survive the better my chances of rescue are.  I don't know that I could get back to sleep now, so I guess I'll go up on the roof and look at the stars for a while...  maybe try to spot which one might be the Sunbeam.
