The Petrova Line Results: - Full Coma Amnesia: You’ve just woken up, your muscles are atrophied, and you can’t even remember your own name. You probably think "Astrophage" is a new type of sourdough starter. Don't worry—just keep testing the gravity by throwing clock parts at the ceiling. It’ll come back to you. - Middle School Science Teacher: You have a solid grasp of the basics. You know your way around a lab and you’ve got enough curiosity to keep the mission from failing in the first week. You’re definitely useful, but maybe stay away from the high-output radiation for a bit. - Eridian Engineer: Fist-bump! You and Rocky would get along famously. You understand the complex mechanics of the Petrova Line and the delicate balance of Taumoeba ecosystems. Your engineering skills are top-tier, and you can probably calculate a trajectory in your head (though you might need a translation program for the chords).
