Sustaining damage to its main engine, Yamato sets course for Enceladus to obtain a rare substance critical in making repairs. Susumu Kodai leads a landing party to investigate a distress signal from a long lost ship.
Summary[]
[]
Yamato receives a United Nations Cosmo Navy distress call from one of Saturn's satellites, Enceladus. While members of the senior staff discuss whether Yamato should investigate, the ship lurches wildly. The executive officer, Shiro Sanada, calls down to engineering and learns from chief engineer Hikozaemon Tokugawa that a condenser on the main engine has melted, caused by the first firing of the ship's Wave Motion Gun. The crew decides to land on Enceladus because of a rare metal in the ship's engine that used to be mined there, cosmonite 90. Lieutenant Susumu Kodai is ordered to lead a landing party to investigate the origins of the signal.
Reaching the Lost Ship[]
Kodai and his team reached the ship where the signal originates, which happens to be an Isozake-class destroyer, the same type that his older brother Mamoru commanded. They checked for survivors, but to no avail.
