{And It All Comes Crashing Down} [Open]

I don’t care what went wrong, I want those couplings-

[The man stopped mid-tirade as he realized he was no longer lecturing an ensign but nobody, jabbing his finger at empty air in an unfamiliar hallway.]

The others with these dates are Cadet Gaila, Lieutenant and Cadet Uhura, Ensign Chekov, Lt. Commander Scott, Commander Spock, and Cadet Smith.

[It was a long shot. Too many Smith's in the world. One of those names everyone and their grandmother seemed to have. Which did only make sense.]

Alright, I'll bite. Tell me about Smith.

[ She tilted her head. If it was in her programming, she would be curious. ]

[ The two areas lit up. ]

[habitualenabler]

Huh. Bigger than I thought.

[shtel_nor]

The station is 1451.82 meters in overall diameter.

[habitualenabler]

[shtel_nor]

I suppose they did not think of making a even number of 1452 while constructing me.
