<h1>Landing Troubles</h1>
<p>
The escape pod <span class="comment">Is there a word that makes this sound
more like it&apos;s the technical term?</span> enters the atmosphere with
a jolt. <span class="comment">Honestly, I have no idea what it is like to
enter the atmosphere. Needs research.</span> The displays on the control
panel flicker and start showing random symbols. Error messages start
scrolling over the screen. <span class="speech">Uh oh.</span>
</p>
<p>
Emily stares at the control panel for a moment trying to think. She grabs
her emergency notes and frantically searches for the relevant section.
After finally finding the right page, she presses a few buttons on the
keyboard. The screen clears and shows the word &quot;HALTED&quot;. Then,
she flips a bunch of switches to unlock the controls. Clicking and
clanging under the control panel. <span class="comment">Throttle lever and
position controls start floating</span> Looking at the next page of her
notes, she realizes that the order has been messed up. Again, she
scrambles through the pages until she finds the next instructions.
&quot;Wait until the external pressure gauge reads &lt;xyz&gt; and release
the heat shield.&quot; She looks at the analog gauges at the top of the
panel - there it ts. &lt;less than xyz value&gt;.
</p>
<p>
The shield detaches with a bang. Emily flips the switch for the fuel
pumps, grabs the throttle lever, and pushes it all the way forward.
Nothing happens. She looks back at the notes - did she miss anything? She
flips the switch off and on again.
<span class="speech">Nononononooo...</span>
