Humans express a longing for Earth-one employee’s job is to “make sure the human section of the crew don’t buckle under to nostalgia and become catatonic”-sometimes alleviated by being near the objects, while humanoids begin showing emotions well beyond their programming. In a series of disconnected, one-sided internal reports to an unnamed authority, the mostly unnamed crew members relay their intense, confused reactions to the objects. ![]() The inhabitants of the Six Thousand Ship, some human and others humanoid robots, become oddly attached to a collection of perplexing alien objects found on the planet New Discovery.
