As Glassman and Thorne continued their escape, Glassman grew tired and needed to rest. He asked why they were walking and why Thorne didn't contact ''Infinity''. Thorne informed him his comm gear wasn't working. He asked Thorne how much further to where they were going and Thorne answered that they were headed for [[Galileo Base]], a few kilometers away.
