They take the steam produced hy' the ET's and put it to work in the turbines which supply tht ship with its power. They, too, watch the gauges with an ex- perienced eye, catching trouble before it starts, and, if trouble does occur, the MM's correct it-keep those turbines in good operating order-a job which they do VERY VVELL.
