Entry 6 - Day 2

 

I wasn't prepared for how beautiful it is down here.  I think the gravity must be different here from on Earth, since I can't hold my breath for very long, but I did managed to take a few pics with the PDA.

There's so much more life than I expected!  Tiny fish to big stingray type creatures, and so much plant life.  One of them did try to take a bite out of me though as I was taking a pic, so I'll have to be more careful and maybe arm myself as well.

I did also manage to find some copper ore in a limestone outcrop, as well as a local species of fungus which the PDA assures me is acidic, so I should be able to fabricate my battery.  I've also seen lots of wreckage from the Aurora littering the sea floor, so the fabricator should be able to break that down into usable titanium.  Fingers crossed I'll have a scanner made before nightfall!
