USS Evolution - Mission 3 : Revisiting Neelix

[Pollo Kan]

This is Lt. Pollo Kan reporting for duty.

I was just trying to learn about the ship. I came as quick as I could when I heard about the mission.

I am the chief science officer so if there is anything you need, feel free to ask me. I will be at my post.

This is a direct order as Division CO for the CO of the USS Evolution to please catch up on there weekly reports.
As you have not been updating, i have been getting into trouble so please make that report asap!

thankyou.

Im finished the modifications to the ship's systems and Im off to the holodeck for simulations.

*Jogs up to the holodeck and sees Lieutenant Dalon waiting*

Sorry about the wait, Dalon. I had a bit of trouble configuring the phaser banks, but its all taken care of now.

[Nick Brooks]

Captain, I will now go back to my post with your ok, sir.

[Dalon]

Helm standing by, sir. Should I resume our previous course?

[Dalon]

*turns to Lt. Lagos*

That is inded a logical line of thought, Lt. Cmdr. Lagos. But it wouldn't explain the fact that the gate is orbiting the star very closely to the planet.

The Loxians do not seem capable to open such a gate, so the only logical answer is that species 8472 opened it. Being this the case, why would they open a gate near a Loxian colony?

Species 8472 does not seem to attack without provocation. They first attacked as a response to a Borg attack... Though they may have decided to begin a systematic extermination of life forms on our space and the location of their gate is just a coincidence, which would be an equally logical possibility.

*suddenly the ship shudders under impact, the red alert claxons start to blaze loudly*

"Darn they decided that firepower was better than a hail!"

[Dalon]

As I said, Captain, it appears that this gate requires some time to open completely. I now have a better reading of what is crossing the singularity, sir. The sensors are not very precise, but it seems to be a vessel two or three times larger than our own, judging by it's gravity well.

*pauses for some seconds and then looks at the Captain again*

Captain, the singularity that lies at the heart of the gate is a point in which space is infinitely curved in itself. It is stable while at rest.

When the gate starts to open, though, a delicate balance of energy is required to maintain the singularity and elarge it enough to let a ship come through without making it collapse. During the opening phase, which I have been monitoring for some minutes now, the complex subspace field that surrounds the singularity, and that makes it stable and imprevious to any attack attempt, has become fragile in some points.

We could fire a coherent beam of gravitons from our deflector dish into one of the "holes" that appeared in the field and, if my claculations are correct, make the singulatity collapse in itself, sealing the gate, though it is logical to assume that soon another one would be opened.

It is important to say that the "holes" appear following a caothic pattern, so I can predict the location of the next "hole" just seconds before it opens and they stay open for a fraction of a second.

Also, this can only be attempted when the gate is opening or closing. If a ship comes through it, we will not be able to seal the gate until it enters this transitory state again, sir.

I have also detected some electro-magnetic traffic through the singularity, even before it started to "open". It is comming from the probes, so it is logical to assume that they are in continuous comunication with the fluidic space. There is a chance that the probes are disabled for the time the gate is sealed, enabling us to approach the planet safely. But this is only a hipothetic scenario, sir.

*computer beeps*

Sir. The probes are firing on the Loxian ship. I am detecting several power surges throughout the ship. Their warp core seems to be unstable, sir. I am relaying the data on the ship to Lt. Cmdr. Lagos' station.

Mr Dalon evasive pattern, Archer-Theta!

=^= Incoming transmission from Station Avalon =^=

Hello everyone there, this is your captain speaking. Things seem a mess over here, it's a miracle the station hasnt fallen apart completely yet! But as your scanners probably saw, a huge ship from something called "The Corporation" has arrived and is setting a bunch of people to work into helping to repair the station.
But in this mess, the admirals are busy too and didn't get around to work out a new mission for our ship yet.  So in the meantime, I suggest that some of us help out on repairs on the station.  Mr. Lagos, could you gather together a "repair team" and beam over to station Avalon?  But make sure there are people left to keep running the ship too http://expansionfleet.sparks.priorweb.be/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'> Thank you.

=^= Sanchez out =^=

OFF: Those who will be on the repair team, please go to the "Station Avalon" board (Starfleet HQ board) and look for the forum "Station Ops". There you will find a topic "Repairing the station", in where you can post. Thank you http://expansionfleet.sparks.priorweb.be/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

[Zephram Lagos]

I was about to ask you the same question. We were here to investiguate your presence in this system. We had information that you were attacking various sectors on the Delta quadrant. May we inquire why?

*tries to look very serious*

off: Sorry if i passed over someone, but i was instructed to get this mission going.

[Nick Brooks]

Long range sensors indicate six Loxian ships one light year away. They are not heading this way though, it looks like they are waiting for back-up. We will have to work fast.

[Nick Brooks]

*leens back on his chair and sighs*

What's next, Commander?

*says with a slight smile*
