Re: [OT] Micicles.
Quite incorect. As the firing of the antimatter cannon was the result of a misfire, it cannot then misfire.
And all the Murphy's Law planatiods were built by Narf.
He is a mad scientist, you know. Plot convenience let's him build all sorts of things.

Simple, have the hibernation unit's hydrogen sulfide tank be manually changed. Each tank only holds enough for one leg of the trip. So even if the computer forgets to turn it off, the tank would simply run out and they astronaunts would wake up. For the trip home simply change the tank and be ready to go. It'd run once again, shortly before reaching earth.

That works if the Hydrogen Sulfide gets decays while it is in use. It doesn't work if it is required to actually be removed from the environment.

I stand corrected. I guess I misunderstood how the process works. Oh well, anyone else have any bright ideas? |

Re: [OT] Micicles.
Just make the system leaky?
So the tank gets used up to replace the stuff in your capsule as it leaks out and gets absorbed by the ship's filters.
When the tank runs out, the remaining gas leaks away, and you're left with the a nice nitrogen/oxy atmosphere.
PS:
Hehe, everything is better leaky!

Re: [OT] Micicles.
Or the evil space nazis from their secret base on the darkside of the moon!
Frankly there are so many people trying to take over the world someone is going to do it soon.
I mean Narf can't keep on failing every night can he?

Re: [OT] Micicles.
If they can get this suspended animation to work for humans, I could deposit, say, $100 in the bank and then stay in stasis for 1000 years and then wake up a rich man. On second thought, this probably won't work because of inflation and service charges.
