How the SOS signal can get through if comms are going to be blocked is a question I leave for the interested viewer.
Maybe they went to the surface, sent it up through the atmosphere, and then went back inside. If the ship’s records say the SOS was last received from the mouth of this cave, it’s a pretty easy assumption. You could even send along,
SOS, SOS! We have wounded in a cave on [insert planet]! The casualties are too injured to move, and I need to go back inside to tend to them. Please help us!

So, M’benga wrote about the particles because he’s a doctor, and they can heal by expanding molecular structures like flesh. Scotty heard about this property and was like “Well can it expand atomic structures too? We could sure use some ‘healing’ on our deuterium reserves”. And turns out it can. So, think of it as a kind of smart matter that turns into whatever it touches. With gravitic containment and good aim, that principle of copying what it touches can do both jobs. And luckily, M’benga has seemingly already designed a hose nozzle smart enough to do the job on flesh. Just copy the molecules in the right places until everything is back to normal.

#EXAPUNKS
Your body has been infected by a Phage that turns your flesh into random bits of circuitry. Left untreated, you’ll gradually lose bodily function as your nerves, blood vessels, muscles, and organs turn into useless computer parts. There’s a drug that halts the progress of the disease. And it only costs 300 dollars.
A day.
For the rest of your life.
Don’t like that deal? Then print out a copy of the underground hacker zine that’ll teach you to all of Alternate Universe 1997’s technology to your will. Including your own body.
Hope you like writing Assembly code.

I personally enjoy Rimu Atkinson’s blog on the development of Piefed: https://join.piefed.social/blog/
Probably the best intro is the first post: https://join.piefed.social/2023/11/18/subscribe-and-unsubscribe-to-a-community-follow/

Yeah, it’s federated. That means users, communities, posts, and votes are shared.

I’ve made a Lemmy instance and a PieFed instance, and I’ll say PieFed is easier to set up and uses less computational resources. If you want the easy mode, make a piefed instance.

The Hellenes had different standards for gods and mortals. If a mortal acted in a way that was acceptable for gods but not for mortals, it was called hubris, and they would be punished by Nemesis.
That’s exactly what happened to Narcissus. Although he was the son of a god and a nymph, the gens worked out so that he was socially considered mortal. Narcissus became a hunter just like Artemis, likely to get away from the city where everyone was always asking him for a fucc. When he met Echo, she got handsy and he told her to get lost. Another sex pest, Ameinias, asked Narcissus for his hand in marriage many times. Eventually he got so fed up, he gave Ameinias a sword and told him to go commit die. And while that’s a bit of an overreaction to sexualk harassment, he was 16, so I’d forgive it. But Ameinias actually did go commit die, and prayed to Nemesis for revenge. “Though he should love, let him not have what he loves”. So Nemesis made Narcissus fall in love with his reflection and starve to death.
So we have here a mortal, presumably a big fan of Artemis since most hunters were, wanting to be left alone and not be sexually harassed, and basically being called stuck-up and full of himself by the whole greek world, including the gods.
