Showakusei 2162 DS No Nazo (21 Seiki Kuso Kagaku Shosetsu)

[Machine Translation] The spaceship Torchwood is crewed by only one person, Ieyumi Towa. The only other occupants are Irene, an artificial intelligence, and Watson, a mechanical brain in training, who are navigating in an asteroid field. Artificial intelligence can talk and think with humans. The machine brain, which has not yet reached that level, can be trained to become an artificial intelligence through learning. However, when the machine brain "Watson" notices something unusual about the asteroid 2162DS, Twa discovers a series of surprising facts about the asteroid. But then, an unexpected crisis strikes...?

宇宙船トーチウッドの乗員は、家弓トワただひとり。他に人工知能の“アイリーン”と教育中の機械頭脳“ワトソン”だけを乗せて、小惑星帯のなかを航行中であった。人工知能は、人間と会話し、思考する。まだその域に達しない機械頭脳は、学習を積むことで人工知能へと高められるのだ。ところが、その機械頭脳“ワトソン”によって、小惑星2162DSの異変に気づかされたトワは、この小惑星の驚くべき事実をつぎつぎと発見する。しかし、そのトワを思いがけない危機が襲う!?
