258 That's Not Human

After a short flight, Major Miller deposited Max and Nico near a large airlock on the colony ship. Using the articulated arms on the Tech Adept Harness, Nico secured herself and put power to the touch panel beside the entrance.

It glowed a light blue before the airlock softly slid open, showing a well-preserved interior twelve meters in height. That was a tight fit for the Crusader Class chassis, but it could fit, so Major Miller followed them in while slightly crouching to give himself a bit more headroom.

The airlock itself, and then the hallway beyond it showed signs of much use, but not much age degradation, and the atmosphere had been evacuated, either by intent or because of a breach somewhere else in this zone.

"If nobody else is going to mention it, I will. The touch pads are all three meters up the door frames." Major Miller pointed out as Nico unlocked another one with a touch of the arms on the Tech Adept Harness.
