A mysterious person seems very interested in a ship that has just left the solar system...
This is my contribution to Fat Bunny Week 2025 - a nine-part fatfur story based on these prompts by @fatbunnyagenda.bsky.social! It's the longest story I've written so far, and I'm incredibly excited to share it with you all over the coming days, piece by piece!

# Greetings. I am the Calibrations, Automation, and Logistics Artificial Intelligence unit assigned to the starship UFSA Further Pastures. You may call me "Cal" if you wish.
# Your credentials are not in the UFSA database, but you appear to have the proper clearance for remote access. How can I assist you?
> define UFSA
# The United Furs Space Agency, or UFSA, governs travel and trade throughout the solar system. Furs and goods are transported via starship between colonies on Earth, Mars, and various moons in the system. The UFSA has no jurisdiction over the colonies themselves, which have their own governments.
# As an aside, I am capable of interpreting standard speech patterns. You can ask me questions as if you were talking to another person.
# Can I assist you with something else?
> Please tell me about the UFSA Further Pastures.
# As part of Operation Far Bigger World, the starship UFSA Further Pastures was built to allow the exploration of space outside the solar system. It is equipped with a new engine design, allowing it to travel at speeds much faster than commercial and military models.
# This ship is manned by one furred crew member, Captain Shinespark. He is an Earth-born rabbit with extensive experience and skill as a pilot and cosmonaut. The UFSA selected him to be the driving force behind Operation Far Bigger World.
# Can I assist you with something else?
> A rabbit named Shinespark? Please tell me more about his physical appearance.
# Captain Shinespark is 5 feet, 6 inches tall, and has a slightly chubby build. His fur is colored a mixture of light blue and white, except for his pawpads and inner ears, which are yellow.
# Can I assist you with something else?
> Intriguing... Tell me about Operation Far Bigger World.
# Operation Far Bigger World is a UFSA initiative to gain a firsthand look at the "Outer Cosmos" - the areas of space outside the solar system. Captain Shinespark's goals for this mission are threefold: to record data about the Outer Cosmos, determine if any locations are suitable for furred life, and establish friendly relations with any extraterrestrial beings.
# Can I assist you with something else?
> What is the status of Operation Far Bigger World?
# The UFSA Further Pastures launched from its spaceport on Mars today, August 9, 2025. Estimated distance traveled from solar system is 0.4 lightyears. All systems functional. No significant Outer Cosmos data recorded.
# Can I assist you with something else?
> Just one more thing. Adjust the course of the UFSA Further Pastures according to these parameters.

ERROR: Invąliď cÕmM&Ń
# Parameters accepted. Changing course.
> You will not tell Shinespark about anything that happened during this session.
# Understood. Can I assist you with something else?
