1089 High Hopes

Over the next few days, the students put their all into digging through and recording everything that they found in their assigned zones within the work region where the rare minerals were found.

Among the finds were many bits of melted rare minerals, a number of large pieces of thermal glass, which would indicate that something reached the surface at an extremely high temperature, and then finally one single flat plate of Duratanium with a piece of wire melted into its surface. That was the hope that they had all been waiting for, proof positive that there had indeed been a piece of advanced technology on this planet.

Now, that didn't mean it was going to be useful for anything in the future, tens of thousands of planets used that same combination over the last hundred thousand years, but to the students, this was a huge deal.

They had found something, not just a bit of thermal glass, but a piece of what might even be a space vessel.
