Unfortunately, Raz's little home was inside an old escape pod that had faulty wiring and when his sector of the station had a small surge of power, his home, the old escape pod, then whirred to life, monitors buried by waste of cardboard and wrappers flashing to display the status, and of which, was still all good, Life support was limited, but was relatively able to last for a long time, but as it all whirred to life, Raz stumbled around in the body, accidentally hitting a lever that detached his pod from the station and shot it out to the planet below, it breaking through the atmosphere, making a dense bang as it hit the sound barrier, eventually crashing with the hull of it dented, but not punctured.
Raz laid on the bottom of the pod, seeing a small little green knob on the wall of it, labeled 'Manual Beacon', and as he didn't know what the outside conditions were, he slowly made his way to the knob and pressed it, sending out a garbled distress message that would be found strongest on the older frequencies, and would be able to be loosely found with the newer frequencies.
