One thing was certain: they longed to set foot on solid ground again. Not sure what to do next, Jasper suggested, "Let's get away from these waters first, then we'll figure it out as we go."

Moving slowly to get a better look, Stella used a telescope to confirm they were indeed containers, but about half the size of seed vaults, with roughly a dozen visible.
