Idealogy 4109. When knowledge changed humanity. Илья Кушниренко

the start of the atomic reactor. The dashboard responsible for the power unit started booting…

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – Well done, FilPC!

      FilPC instantly changed into a tuxedo and turned on the music. It launched an animation on its screen, where crowds of viewers and camera flashes greeted it, while it was walking along the red carpet. It greeted its fans with a smile and signed autographs. Igor, seeing the animation, could not restrain himself and also patted it. The shuttle began to perk up, the lighting and illumination on the ship gradually turned on. The life support system began to work with renewed vigor. Operating systems were loading on all monitors and screens of the ship.

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – Great, it changes everything.

      Igor flew to the power unit door.

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – FilPC, are you going?

      FilPC

      – I will stay here and carry out diagnostics for errors and possible failures in the power system.

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – This is right, okay. Do your business, baby.

      The astronaut flew in a hurry through the illuminated corridors of the ship into the cockpit. Having flown into the cockpit, he saw that Nastya had done exactly what he asked. The man felt a slight relief from the fact that he would not have to spend precious time on unnecessary actions. Dashboards, screens and monitors started up and were performing system diagnostics. Igor began to settle down in the place of the commander of the ship.

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – How are we doing?

      ANASTASIA GRADECKAYA

      – It’s alright, except for the fact that we will soon enter the atmosphere of the planet.

      The shuttle made a revolution, and Igor Vladimirovich could see through the frontal porthole how a colored planet filled almost the entire panoramic windshield. They could make out the uneven outlines of the multicolored islands. There was a visible vegetation of green-blue, green-purple and red-green shades on them. The islands were washed with a liquid of turquoise, azure and pale pink shades.

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – What a beauty!

      ANASTASIA GRADECKAYA

      – The planet looks like a paradise, and it seems to me that it is very suitable for life.

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – Perhaps, but first we need to stop the rotation or, at least, try not to crash.

      The shuttle made a revolution, and the planet disappeared from the view of the astronauts. Igor and Nastya examined the dashboard of the shuttle. On-board computer displayed incomprehensible data and indications, as well as interference on monitors and screens.

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – What the hell is going on?

      The astronaut was trying to fix the on-board computer and restart the system, to turn off the autopilot and to take control. Igor was pulling the levers responsible for maneuvering, but the on-board computer and the shuttle didn’t give a backlash.

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – This is nonsense, nothing works.

      He tried to workaround the shuttle automation in various ways and to start the shunting engines, but all his efforts were in vain. The astronaut has established a connection with FilPC.

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – FilPC, FilPC, this is Igor.

      FilPC was connected to the dashboard of the power unit and was scanning its system for detection and elimination of errors.

      FilPC

      – Receiving.

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – It seems that the on-board computer is out of order as well as the control of the shuttle. Nothing is working.

      FilPC

      – Give me 2 hours and I will reinstall the ship's on-board computer.

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – We don’t have two hours. We are going straight to the planet, and if we do not figure out how to stop the rotation, then we will all have a tragic ending.

      FilPC

      – I can workaround the on-board computer and give the shuttle control to you.

      Igor scrolled through all the possible scenarios in his head.

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – Listen, why don't you take control of the shuttle yourself, you're a supercomputer.

      FilPC

      – Yes, it is possible, but all my resources are aimed at eliminating errors in the power unit. If I don’t finish the test, the shutdown incident may happen again.

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – I understand you. You can’t do without human help. Turn off the automation and set the shuttle to manual mode.

      Igor Vladimirovich looked at Anastasia.

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – Nastya.

      Anastasia looked at Igor.

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – How do you feel?

      ANASTASIA GRADECKAYA

      – It’s nauseating a little, but in general I’m okay. Can I help you?

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – So far I can’t say anything, it will be seen further. FilPC, what about the on-board computer?

      FilPC

      – I am working on your assignment. I can’t understand why so much protection for the on-board computer is needed.

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – So that hackers like you won’t be able to hack it.

      With each revolution of the shuttle, the planet was getting larger and larger, and its beauty could be seen with the naked eye.

      FilPC

      – Uh, I don’t want to upset you, but the on-board computer of the shuttle is completely destroyed and is working at 5 percent.

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – Do something. It’s almost your relative, make a contact with it, ask it to work a little more.

      FilPC

      – Very funny joke. Ha- ha- ha.

      Igor and Anastasia looked at each other smiling.

      FilPC

      – Done, I agreed with it on the condition that I will take on its functions. I turned off the automation, the shuttle should go into manual mode.

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – Well done, FilPC.

      Igor slightly pulled the levers responsible for maneuvering the engines and felt a response from the shuttle. He was delighted with this small event as a child who got a new car from the Hot Wheels collection.

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – It’s working!

      The astronaut slowly and accurately aligned the shuttle on the horizon of the planet and stopped its rotation. Without the support of maneuvering engines the shuttle's head was tilting down.

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – Damn, it seems we got into the gravitational field of the planet.

      ANASTASIA GRADECKAYA

      – Maybe we should break out of its gravitation and try to stay in orbit?

      IGOR VLADIMIROVICH

      – It is a good
