=A= Admiral Montrell to Admiral Vorak =A=

"Admiral, me and Commodore Hedford are called back to Starfleet HQ on Earth. There was a direct order and further details are on a padd which I left on your deks. I will return ASAP, during my absence I'm sure that Admiral Karelia can fill my place!

I will keep you informed on my missions back on Earth and we both have no clue about our sudden recall, but as I said we will keep you informed"

Thats great news mr Archer. *wonders what happened to the ensign and mr Lurado* Mr Ransom any help your engineers can spare would be of great help.
My personal XO Janeway would of been able to help but she is still on Dantor with a tactical squad helping clean up from a romulan attack.

*After Archer had received Julian's transmission, he requested docking clearance and docked the U.S.S. Lhasa in Docking Bay 2. After that, he went directly to Ops. He saw that he was the first one to join Julian in Ops. He was looking around carefully to see if he could see a glimpse of what Julian wanted to show them all.*

"Well, congratulations Admiral, with this successful moving."

*He shook Julian's hand*

"Finally, after so much preparation and a long and quite troublesome journey, we have arrived. I'm surprised to see that I am the first one here. Can't you give me a small hint about what you want to show us all?"

*Vorak enters ops with several pads in his hands. To all the senior officers, he hands one out.*
"After long deliberation, I have decided that the current location of Avalon Station is no longer a safe one, considering the recent attacks by the Na'jigat and other forces before. Nor is there any strategic advantage to the presence here any more, and another location would be more advantageous."
*Then he taps a button and a star chart appears on the wall.*
"I propose the station to be moved to the following location."
*He points at the planet Dantor.*
"I propose Avalon Station to be brought in orbit around Dantor, where it would have the strategic advantage of being close to Starphoenix Base, in where one can assist or help defend the other in case there is need to."

OFF: Thanks Andrew:;):

"Four, Admiral. You're forgetting about the U.S.S. Lhasa. I know that it is not a big ship, but it IS a ship and it has a tractor beam and crew.
As you are saying, admiral Yates, I would not rely on the DA too much. I think it is best if we try to get as many flyers, runabouts and suitable shuttles from the fleet here to help out."

*Archer walked into Operations and saw Captain Ransom, who he still knew from his days at the academy*

"Richard, how have you been? I heard you now are in command of the Windsor. Everything going well on board?"

*Turns to Julian*

"Admiral, Ensign Mann and I are the only ones in Engineering at the moment. Nothing has been done yet. We're trying to modify the deflector shields to lower the station's mass, but we're having some difficulties with it."

*Archer thinks of something and turns to Ransom again*

"Richard, you don't happen to have an engineer from the Windsor to spare, do you? If you have someone who has some time now to help us, that would be great."

*Again Archer turns to Julian*

"I think that, if we can get the shields working properly, and the preparation onboard the vessels doesn't get delayed, we can start moving the station in about three or four days, sir."

"Sir, I have another idea. Now, I'm no engineer, but I think this might work. I know that the station has countless supplies for warp engine repair. Perhaps we could install a rudimentary warp drive on the station? With the help of other ships, perhaps we could extend a warp field around the station, and use the impulse boosters to propel it to a low warp speed. With support ships using tractor beams for reinforcement, structural integrity shouldn't be a problem."

"Julian, I do Beleive the Windsor and the Unity are being recomed in Frontier Division they are currently not assigned to a task so I think Admiral Hobson could lend them to us. Intel. has nothing to spare and the Rivendell should be ready to assist aswell. So that gives us three ships but that is not enough. The Runabout and Delta Flyer idea would certaintly help out. Now the DA could also be a big help but I am uncertaint they would actually send a couple ships."

welcome captains.

yes it has been a while mr Archer, how are you? been looking after yourself??

umm im not sure if something so this important should be handeled byt the cadets but i do have something for any of those potential engineers and pilots if you have any willing cadets??

i need ppl to help tweek the tractor beams on our runabouts and delta flyers, plus im gonna need able pilots to fly them.

but we need to get organised the moving of the station is a high priority as SS Avalon is at a high risk of being attacked again.

Time to go to engineering..
How far away are we from Dantor Mr Archer. I have Captain Janeway currently with my custom Delta Flyer, awaiting commands with a 6 man tactical team on standby using the transwarp drive on the flyer, they can get hear in no time to help out. Only if we need it though, as they are the only starfleet currently at the planet from what i know.

Post by: Eugene Archer on July 10, 2006, 02:20:40 PM
I have at least one cadet, cadet Mann, who just graduated in piloting and who's starting his engineering course as we speak. I have asked if he would like to help and I am awaiting his response, but I'm quite sure that he will cooperate.

I have served as engineering officer for several years, so I have also taken a look at the proposal of moving the station at warp speed, but as you already mentioned, you would need a very stable, large, and complicated warp field. This would be virtually impossible to achieve.

So I also agree that tractoring the station to Dantor would be the best, and safest solution. In order to achieve this, I am willing to let you use the academy's training vessel (U.S.S. Lhasa). I think it might be a good idea to train my cadets on preparing the tractor beam on the Lhasa.

I don't know if this has already been done, but I think that also the Intelligence Division should be contacted to see if they have vessels to send over here.
Title: The Moving of Avalon Station
Post by: Kassie on July 14, 2006, 05:35:37 AM
*Looking up*

"I didnt mean to eavesdrop I swear, but I have an idea on how we can move the station.  What you need to do is try to and either lower the density of the station.  Which means make the station lighter.  So I have 2 suggestions."

"1) Im not to sure but DS9 did it with the Cardasian station.  They used there shields to made the station lighter then they used there thrusters to move the station much faster.  Like a Balloon, or a bouncing ball full of helium.  We do the same thing.  May take a few weeks but it could cut it the time in half."

"2) We could use this.  Dr. Baphomet was working on it and im sure you all know what it is."

*Kassie figited for a few seconds but went and squeezed in next to Julian sense she felt safer near him then the others and activated a console to bring up a holographic projection and readouts for a Shift drive*

"I think its still in the experimental stages but I believe that we could use this drive to encompass the entire station sending it instantly from point A, which is here to point B, which is Dantor.  I been looking over the spec's as reading sense im the Rivendells Operations officer.  I know its not my field or my place to suggest but I felt I had too."

*Kassie stood there near Julian just waiting for her ideas to be shot down and started to play with her PADD she had, while trying not to show her Anxiety over being surrounded bye her superiors*

Title: The Moving of Avalon Station
Post by: Vorak on July 04, 2006, 02:46:17 PM
"Moving the station through null space would prove an interesting solution, but also a rather risky one. Travelling through null space puts alot of restraint on the vessel, and therefore makes it a... rough ride, as you humans would call it. Starships are built to be able to do this, but a station like this unfortunately does not. The engines in the station are strong enough to move the entire station, but only at a very slow speed, which means it would take several months for it to reach Dantor. However, my proposal is the use of the tractor beam of several ships simultaneously. According to my calculations, the move of the station with the help of the tractor beam of 5 ships would take about one week. Ten ships would take 2 to 3 days."

"Hmm, what's this? Is Avalon station being moved? Well, it's nice that I've been informed as well. Maybe there is something I can help you with? I have some very promising cadets at the academy at the moment, maybe it's an idea to have them take a look at it? It could be a good training."

Post by: Eugene Archer on July 16, 2006, 08:10:45 PM
Well, that's just great. Only two ships and a bunch of shuttlecraft. I guess we should just get on with things and try to do it with the resources we have available. I don't see a way to get more ships to this location in time. We should not wait much longer with the moving, because of the continuing threats.

Title: The Moving of Avalon Station
Post by: Eugene Archer on July 11, 2006, 03:29:11 PM
I think it certainly is possible to upgrade the station's propulsion systems, sir. But I'm afraid that might take quite some time as well. I do, however, think it's an idea worth investigating further.

About the Evolution, I do know that it is not currently on a mission, and I also heard that a new Evolution is being build, but since I don't have anything to do with those ships, I am not sure about this.
Title: The Moving of Avalon Station
Post by: Eugene Archer on July 13, 2006, 08:32:22 AM
I think, that if you remove all non-critical personnel off the station, it would not make a very big difference. I mean, it's a big station, and the people's mass is very little relative to the entire station's. If there, however, is another way to considerably lower the station's mass, that would certainly help.

So to sum it up a bit, we have 4 starships available (Windsor, Unity, Rivendell, Lhasa), some runabouts and flyers, we're looking for a way to lower the station's mass, and we're investigating the possibility of enhancing the station's propulsion systems. Correct?

Thirty-six hours pass and with the help of Captain Archer and his team, Starbase Avalon was now ready to be moved to the planet Dantor. Vice Admiral Julian congratulates the team on doing a great job, but ahead is the biggest test, moving the station.

Hmm this must be the meeting about the moving of the station?

i heard you were considering to use starships tractor beams to help move it??

if i may we could also use any delta flyers and runabouts that have tractor beams aswell, might quicken it up a bit :)
Title: The Moving of Avalon Station
Post by: Julian on July 11, 2006, 02:05:50 PM
4 ships. hmm that'll still take us a few weeks to move the station.

hmm

there still is one more idea..

im not to sure myself if this could be done, but the stations thrusters could possibly be upgraded and equiped with low impulse engines, which, combined with the tractor beams should get us to Dantor in around 8 days or so, thats implying nothing goes wrong though.

question? what is happening with the U.S.S Evolution? can it be used to help out? i heard it was decommisioned or something?

"If there would be a way to use warp technology. Lower the stations mass to negative, to where its own thrusters can move it at great speed. Though, I would not be so sure about the structural integrity during that".

ok well i dont seem to see that there are any problems.

my other idea im not to sure about but we could dock a few runabout on the side of the station and have them run at low impulse to also give a bit of a push. this would be quite a task but im sure our guys will be able to set everything up just fine :)

any disagreements?

OFF: I don't see any objections in you getting involved in this, but that's not up to me to decide. I am, however, interested in how you are planning to lower the mass of SS Avalon. Splitting the Rivendell into three sections should also help a lot in achieving our goal.
Title: The Moving of Avalon Station
Post by: Eugene Archer on July 13, 2006, 07:47:44 PM
Using warp technology seems to be impossible. I don't know if anyone has any other suggestions concerning warp, but I can't see a way to make it work. No matter in what way the ship is going to be moved, the greatest problem will indeed be the structural integrity. I think that the best way we can solve this is by using all ships available, all with enhanced tractor beams. We should also try to find a way to further strengthen the structural integrity fields around the station.

*On the viewscreen, showing all assisting vessels, several tractor beams were activated. A small shock went through the station as they locked on to their target. As this happened, Archer's voice sounded on all ships and the station:*

"Archer here, all tractor beams are attached. Engineering, activate shields to decrease station's mass."

*As the shields were activated, a faint blue screen surrounded the station*

"All ships, I am sending you the destination coordinates. Lay in a course, warp 4. Engage in three... two.... one.... Now!"

*Slowly, the ships began to move, and then they all suddenly jumped into warp.*

=^=Vice-Admiral Julian to All high command currently on station, and to all of the crew involved in the moving of the station.

Title: The Moving of Avalon Station
Post by: Julian on July 07, 2006, 04:14:57 AM
Ok at the moment our primary plan is to move it via the tractor beam method.

We need to find out what ships we have docked, and we need to find out what ships we can arrange to have come here. Maybe the DA can help out a bit? Or the Starfleet intelligence ships?

Next we need to find out how many delta flyers and runabouts we have, and how many are equiped with strong enough tractor beams. If any aren't equiped then we need to get them equiped. The more help we can get the better.

If anyone has any other ideas i am open to suggestion.

i do have a few things i think we may be able to do but i am not too sure.

i will wait for other suggestions first

OOC:  Not sure if I can participate in this one, but there is a way to lower the stations mass so that the thrusters will provide all the thrust we need.  The Rivendell can seperate into 3 different sections and help enforce the structural integrety field of the station.

They will certainly be of good help for us. We need all the experience we can find.

I also have two cadets in the academy studying engineering at the moment. I am trying to teach them all about tractor beams, propulsion systems, and structural integrity, so that they can help us prepare when the time comes to move the station.

Though I am not so sure we will be able to keep you at the rank of captain. A small demotion to Commander might be required but I can promise you that when the next Ship command position is opend you will be the first we go to. I will also let High Command know that you are a reliable and very distinguished Captian in need of command. SO if you will take the minor demotion I think you will be all set.

=^=Archer to Admiral Julian. This is the status of the mission: Biggins, Mann, Kassie and I are working down here in engineering. We have discovered a way to propel the ship at warp speed. We are currently recalibrating the shields, and crewman Biggins is working on the structural integrity field. If work isn't delayed in any way, we should have the station ready for transport within 48 hours. I'm still waiting for crewman Biggins' answer to my question about how long it's gonna take to move the station at warp 4, which will be the maximum speed at which the station won't collapse. THe only other thing left to do after that, is checking if all the assisting vessels' tractor beams are modified sufficiently to ensure structural integrity of the station during transport. I will report back to you in 12 hours. Archer out.=^=

*Archer ran into ops, after having beamed on to the station just outside the ops-door*

"Admiral, I heard something about Mann being injured. I will visit him shortly to ask him what happened in that corridor. After that I will go to engineering to help out and also ask Kassie some questions. I've ordered the other vessels to adjust their shielding systems in order to encompass the station. In that way, the station will have like a double shield and it acts like a buffer. It should give us longer periods at warp speeds, and we would need less time at impulse to repair the station's shields.

In the mean time I would recommend to look out for any hostile vessels in the vicinity."

wow ensign. yes now that i think of it i do remember somethin about DS9 being moved like that. Perhaps we could also use the tractors to help move aswell.

*taps on a pad he had lying on the desk in front of him*

Actually it looks like *suddenly a holographic diagram of estimations on how long it would take to move the station*  if we do that, plus use the tractor beams it would take merely a week to move the station.

I wouldn't risk the new drive on the station because as you said, it is still in experimental stages, and i cant risk something like that on the station. However great work one the shileding idea.

Ok heres whats goin to happen.

Mr Archer i need you to contact the ships we have available and arrange for them to meet at the station in 2 days from now for a briefing with their CO's.

Mr Lurado I need you to Contact Dantor and inform them that a briefing will be taking place 2 days from now and a video appearance of the highest ranking Officer currently on the base needs to be set up. Then you and and Ensign Kassie are to arrange everything nessessary to move the station.

I want you all to keep me informed each step of the way.

Admiral Yates, i'm sure you have more pressing matters to attend to but i have things under control here and will keep you and the rest of the high command informed every step of the way.
