There is a side quest "Escape Attempt", how do I complete it?

[Loskit]

The quest requires me to blow an escape pod hatch from Exterior... well, how do I blow something? (Can't find any explosive nearby...)

[Kommissar K]

There are two ways to proceed:

1.) Go to the exterior, find the escape pod hatch, fine the red explosive bolts around the hatch, and destroy them.

Then go back to the escape pod area, and use the terminal to manually launch pod 2.

2.) Or you can just manually launch pod 2, skipping the first step. Note this does count as "failing" the quest, but it should be considered a valid alternative solution. Be sure to check the ceiling tiles in the locker room of shuttle bay area, as well as the escape pod itself in space for loot from the quest.

Ah, so the red bolts can be shot off. Thanks dude!
