On discovering that the engineers haven't yet set up the satellite as a distress beacon or taken off it's solar panels to use as a power source you order the work to be down immediately.
The engineers dissemble the satellite in record time and make a tower from scarp metal to place the transceiver on.
Solar panels are set up at the edge of camp with the satellites' capacitor providing a small bit of storage.
You now have electricity.
You take some time out to pray to Odin for guidence but Odin doesn't appear to respond.
Work on getting deeper into the ship continues with some success
There are few safe passages into it's depths but there are some.
Your engineers have spent considerable time trying to shore up the weak points of the ships structure so it doesn't collapse and putting out the smaller fires.
Despite their careful approach two of the workers were lightly wounded during their efforts and much of the ship is still very difficult to get to.
Eventually the geologists return from the chasm as the sun begins to approach the horizon.
The chasm itself has an overhanging lip at the top which makes climbing down into it hard.
This makes it a very unusual formation according to the geologists.
They still managed to make it to the bottom though and report that the walls were covered in a strange black algae.
But more surprisingly they found a human skeleton and a box of flares down there.
