Genres: Fiction
And that was the problem. A week into the excavation of the Justine, Tate found herself struggling with a vague sense of dissatisfaction.
    It was everything they’d hoped for. The wreck was rich. There were gold coins, gold bars—some of them a full sixty pounds. Artifacts were transferred to the surface in abundance. The droid worked busily, digging, lifting, shifting booty with Bowers and Dart working the controls at Ground Zero.
    Now and again Tate took a break from her own work to watch
... the monitor and observe how the machine would haul a heavy load in its mechanical arms, or snag a sea sponge delicately with its pincers for the biologists to study.
    The expedition was a complete success.
    Tate was suffering through a profound sense of envy for an ugly metal robot.
    At her station in a forward cabin, she photographed, examined and catalogued the bits and pieces of mid-nineteenth-century life.
