Personnel
gollark: Oh, you would just crash too.
gollark: So it should run out reasonably fast, actually.
gollark: I accidentally made it much bigger than it should have been and also not hollow.
gollark: Well, the fusion reactor powering it is down, and the battery connected to it will only last maybe a few days.
gollark: Please remove the shield projector if possible.
