Every ounce of weight extra on the trip meant another
thousand units of fuel to get it up and on its way. So, the company made sure
only the absolute bare essentials went. The lightest possible seeds, the
minimum amount of air recyclers, one crew.
But to spend years running the energy absorption robots, one
person needs some companionship. So they sent up a small robot dog to be the
friend for them. And without fail, each person they sent up went mad and egomaniacal,
claiming they ‘controlled a robot army’.
But when they switched to a cat, worked fine.
