Acting captain's log, Archer-51, entry number two: Coordinates, encoded C115B8AF-F900-4483-9AC9-5C4D3319C424. Intergalactic time spec follows this log. The Archer-51 is now mostly at nominal operating status. Position is known and time is kept. The commissary machine is producing edible food and comfort systems are fully operational. Copilot robot # J3N67 is functional and able to operate navigational systems well enough to permit me to tend to the rest of the ship. The obvious missing piece is the rest of the Archer's crew. At full capacity, the ship's crew is twelve. As stated in the previous log, I am the only person aboard the ship. Further investigation suggests that the other eleven crew members never boarded the Archer. Their quarters are undisturbed, with no personal effects or other signs of habitation. Their hibernation pods appear to have been open continuously since launch; that my pod functioned properly under these circumstances is remarkable and a testament to the quality of modern shipbuilding. Unfortunately, that quality does not extend to the ship's archives, which appear to be incomplete from approximately eight hours before launch until my awakening. Landside backups are, obviously, not accessible from space. Spaceside backups began only after I enabled them. Thus, there is a hole in the logs, and in my understanding of how I came to be in this situation. Fortunately, this situation is, for the most part, comfortable, if a bit lonely. The commissary's food is actually somewhat tasty; a pleasant surprise and a further example of the quality of Archer's build. My own personal effects were loaded into my quarters, so I have access to my library and entertainment. I have also been assembling some of the optional equipment on the Archer for educational purposes. My rating at the Academy was Missile Technician; with only light weaponry and no enemy to engage, the Archer has no need for a missile tech, but the skills I learned are useful for all manner of technology assembly. Per aspera ad astra. End log.
