"Normally ice is just ice, but this ice looks like it is alive somehow. Maybe its close proximity to Gaia makes it more similar to water than normal ice. It might even be colder. Perhaps as we travel closer to the planet it might even change color slightly. Do you think we should take samples to compare it to the ice of Kusari? Maybe we can determine what this ice is composed of. Perhaps we can reverse engineer this to make ice out of regular water."
Snake stops the engines and starts collecting some of the ice samples.
