He ran the simulation again. The last eight had been with minimal life support, only a few of the hib modules powered on; the rest of the crew practically left for dead. This run was even more pessimistic.
The idea had been, just get them cold and then pump out the atmosphere, open the hull and expose the unplugged caskets to space. Save power that way. They didn't have the technology to revive those people, but they'd stay cold at least.
The simulation issued a ping and he began to browse the results. Again, no use. That was with zero sleepers, zero crew. The problem wasn't just the power but the fuel. Lost mass, lost distance, busted trajectory... No matter what provision he could dream up, the result was the same. Out goes the lights... and the heat... and the computers. They were doomed to be a cold husk drifting in the endless empty wasteland between the stars.
