<p>&ldquo;Mining on our planet and our planet&rsquo;s moon,&rdquo; the skunk said after a moment&rsquo;s thought. &ldquo;As well as limited mining of asteroids at stationary points of orbit.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;You call Legrange point, <em>ka?</em>&rdquo; Stolon asked.</p>
<p>She nodded. &ldquo;Correct.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;We saw, <em>lo&hellip;</em>&rdquo; They chattered their teeth for a moment, then looked to Iska. &ldquo;<em>Baenå&rsquo; puta&rsquo; esbrodåtufath?</em>&ldquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;We saw, <em>lo&hellip;</em>&rdquo; They chattered their teeth for a moment, then looked to Iska. &ldquo;<em>Baenå&rsquo; puta&rsquo; &lsquo;esbrodåtufath&rsquo;?</em>&ldquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Space-construct,&rdquo; they said, filling in. &ldquo;We saw constructs of various size at your Legrange planet-moon and planet-star Legrange points.&rdquo;</p>
<p>True Name stiffened, but any response she might have had was preempted by Tycho. The astronomer, who had appeared largely overwhelmed by the meeting to date had steadily grown more excited during the questioning phase. &ldquo;You did? How? Radio? When did you see them? During gravity assist? How&ndash;&ldquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Tycho, hold up,&rdquo; Sarah said, laughing. &ldquo;There will be time.&rdquo;</p>

<p>Tycho grinned, nodded. &ldquo;Apologies, that will be my question, then.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;I ask,&rdquo; Stolon said. &ldquo;How launched vehicle? We see also another.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;A station &mdash; a construct, as you say &mdash; rotating with the Castor and Pollux LVs at the end of long launch arms, then photon sails and gravity assists on our way out of the system.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;<em>Ka,</em> not so fast. Conserve fuel?&rdquo; They chattered their teeth again. &ldquo;Sorry sorry, will ask again soon.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;You move not so fast, <em>ka?</em> Conserve fuel?&rdquo; They chattered their teeth again. &ldquo;Sorry sorry, will ask again soon.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;I am pleased to see scientists excited,&rdquo; Turun Ka said. &ldquo;Recorder Codrin? Recorder Turun Ko?&rdquo;</p>
<p>When Turun Ko did not speak, Codrin asked, &ldquo;Does your system allow you to forget?&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Memories degrade-rot,&rdquo; the other recorder said. &ldquo;Saves-preserves storage. Garbage collection process trims-prunes old-unaccessed memories.&rdquo;</p>
