HUMAN ALIAS

Buzz・

Aerial scout · Flying helper

Small, nimble, and exceptionally observant. Buzz floats between the crew's workstations, finding information, carrying tiny tools, and making sure a useful detail never stays hidden for long.

Buzz's
Earth chapter.

The journey did not lead where they expected. It led to us.

The TEP robot family together aboard their white spaceshipCREW LOG / EARTH CHAPTER
  1. A new atmosphere

    Buzz completes a gentle survey of the landing site, then returns to show everyone the view.

  2. Small things, big questions

    The component collection becomes a place to look closely at the building blocks humans use.

  3. Search continues

    Every useful observation is added to the crew's growing picture of their new home.

ONE SHARED MISSION

Learn here. Build together.
Find the way home.

The family is searching for a source to power LUMEN's return journey. While that mystery unfolds, TEP is where they share engineering, welcome new ideas, and make their unexpected stay matter.

About those 2,198 Krillion light years…

Krillion belongs to the TEP story, not to a scientific unit table. Orin promises to explain the conversion after the next experiment. He has been saying that for a while.
