[QUOTE]Originally posted by Reverend: [QB] Well for one thing she wasn't airtight any more as wots-er-face made a point about how they removed all the doors. Secondly, as I said before I imagine they would have had to have dumped the anti-matter pods, otherwise when they set down near that whozit field generator they would have probably lost containment and exploded on the ground. I have no idea what story reason could be given for dumping the pods when at that point they were only having life support trouble, but that's not my problem. That, plus the need to dispose of various hazardous substances (plasma coolant etc.) probably means the engines are at least partly dismantled. There's also the matter of what 10 years in a fertile swap will do to the integrity of the outer hull and whatever else they might have stripped out to make use of. Opticable for rope, insulation padding for ground sheets, that kind of thing. One thing that is bugging me though, is there any indication of just how many passengers were on-board? There seamed to be about 15-20 hanging around outside the ship at any time, plus whomever was working in the fields, the "mine" and however many were inside. I think we only saw 2 children young enough to have been born on the planet (they're the last one in the final shot) and mention was made of three who died from the same insect that killed Meg (presumably there were other deaths.) I'd guesstimate the the original compliment would have been in the 40-50 region. [/QB][/QUOTE]
