Stand by for danger in the asteroid belt around Jupiter’s forth moon. After a police call is responded to, it turns out to just be a false alarm. As Commander Correy and Cadet Happy cruise through space in their high tech cruiser, they begin to smell a rat with that bogus call.
A damaged ship can be turned over to salvage companies to clear up the wreckage, and get what they can for scrap. When there’s no actual damaged ship, the Artonians board the Space cruiser, demanding to take it for salvage. The situation becomes touchy when a matter of the politics of clashing governments enters the picture.
Donning space suits, and doing some investigating, Correy and Happy discover the Arturians aren’t as innocent in their dealings as they pretend. Watch out though, that heavy lifting machinery and gravity beam could do a lot of damage if used incorrectly. A space chase ensues, and good old fashioned strategy, mixed with high tech outer space gadgets end up in explosive results.
PS: Hey, is it just me, or is anyone else asking, why the need for heavy salvage equipment? Aren’t they in space? You know… zero gravity. Unless they need to make little chunks of space debris into little chunks of space debris, it really isn’t needed is it?
