Tangle in the Dark - Kassidor

largest information transfer in the galaxy to deal withsomething as trivial as a single divorce, even if it’s mine.”9:59am Mon. Apr. 2, 2384It wasn’t til after that meeting with Ava that he finally raninto Elmore. That meeting had gone poorly. Elmore told himit was Heymon, he wasn’t putting his signature on any resultsfrom instruments that required the re-writing of the laws ofphysics, and his equipment was not working until he couldfind the fault, either in his equipment or the instruments thatclaimed to read the state at the far end of the entanglement.Thom pleaded his case to Elmore, Elmore promised to talk toHeymon. He was not going to defy Heymon and report thescan of the Pink Dawn unless the captain ordered him to lookinto it.They spent another week prying open the instrumentschematics that had been transmitted from home with thatquantum mechanics text. They went over the fabrication of itand even had Ava look at it. Since none of them knew thescience and the math on which this instrument operated, allthey could verify is that he had correctly specified thefabrication. They had to take the instrument itself as a given,and that was the crux of the problem. He begged them to atleast report that to the captain. He wondered what hadactually been said at this morning’s meeting.214
