Bix, early thirties, short and stocky, is examining a facsimile of the landing shell.

He spots them approaching.

BIX

Jeremy, is it true that you're our new

Life Support Specialist?

JEREMY

It's true.

BIX

I'm the Shell Pilot for this mission. I

heard you were able to contact Carlos out

near Jupiter.

JEREMY

Yeah. He was actually in pretty good

spirits after the gravity assist failed.

BIX

It's a risky business we're in. Maybe we

can grab a beer after work.

JEREMY

Sounds great. I'll stop by later.

Bix nods and returns to work.

Bart leads Jeremy to another corner of the bay.

SETH PETIMULE and GERT HAWKINS are working together, unfolding an inflatable igloo. They are both in their late twenties.

Bart and Jeremy stop at a white line and wait patiently for them to finish.

Seth spots them. He approaches.

Gert follows.

BART

Jeremy Ash, This is Seth Petimule and

Gert Hawkins. Seth and Gert will be the

Primary Surface Specialists.

GERT

Nice to meet you, Jeremy.

SETH

Welcome to the team.

JEREMY

We use air straight from the atmospheric

processors to inflate the igloos, right?

GERT

Actually, we inflate them with Mars

atmosphere. The carbon dioxide reacts

with the igloos' inner membrane and it

hardens within twenty four hours.

JEREMY

Oh yeah, the carbon seal. I remember now.

GERT

Once we've confirmed that they're

airtight, we replace the igloos'

atmosphere with breathable air from the

processor. Voila, our own little studio

apartments on Mars.

JEREMY

I've studied the design. Pretty cool.

GERT

I hate to be rude, but we've still got

two more of these to unfold.

JEREMY

No problem. I'll see you guys later.

Seth and Gert return to their task.

BART

That's it for the crew. Cecil wanted me

to start you off slowly so if you want to

call it a day, feel free.

JEREMY

Thanks, Bart. I think I'll go back and

visit Bix. See you tomorrow.

BART

See you then.

Bart moves off. Jeremy heads toward Bix.
