Manual

From here, use the hand icon on the button next to the launch bay door. Since you have the spaceship on, you won't explode and die from lack of oxygen. Use the hand icon on the inside of the escape pod to go in.

Inside the escape pod, use the hand icon on the seatbelt, then switch to the eye icon and click on the Autonav to the left of Roger Wilco's head. The first button takes you to the nearest hospitable planet, the second button is not to be pressed at anytime, and the third is the power button for the escape pod. Switch to the hand icon, press the third button to turn on the power, then use the joystick to get moving. As you do, the Arcada starts to shake, then explodes as Roger Wilco escapes.

Back on the escape pod, click on the Autonav and press the first button. You'll see a diagram for a planet called Kerona, then go through a rainbow-colored warp tunnel and land there...hard.

If you press the second button on the Autonav, you'll go into a weird, rainbow-colored warp portal that takes you to a medievil village, where you will eventually crash near Nottingham Castle from Conquests of the Longbow and die. The bold death text returns! (If you do this in the original EGA version, you get the same death, but you end up in Daventry in King's Quest instead of medieval England.)

Use the hand icon on the seat belt (good thing you wore it!). You'll automatically get out. Take the survival kit from the escape pod. If you look inside it in the inventory, you'll learn it contains a Xenon army knife and a canister of dehydrated water (so, there's nothing inside the canister, then?), which will then show up in your inventory. If you look at the can of dehydrated water, you'll learn that there's only hydrogen inside, there's enough for 10 gallons and that all you need to add to it is air and that misues could result in personal injury and/or flash flooding.

Also, pick up the shard of the windscreen glass at the front of the escape pod. By looking at it, you'll learn it is very reflective.
