In September 827 A.S. the giant dark matter storm finally consumed the entire system of Alberta and subsequently an unforseen consequence arose as the dark matter started "trickling" into Kepler through an unstable jump anomaly. This prompted authorities to issue a system wide alert and evacuation of most of their assets from the system. For safety both Jump Gates leading to the Shikoku and Colorado systems were shut down in order to protect them and prevent any major cataclysmic event. Ames Station was largely abandoned by major companies and other groups as the station itself lost it's strategic function as a waystation between the houses of Kusari and Liberty. My team and I who were members of the Genesis Research Group (from now on reffered to as GRG) were recently tasked with surveying the system using our highly advanced scanner equipment and analyze the current situation and if possible predictions regarding the future of the system. After the careful examination of the data that we gathered, we spent our time analyzing it and using various predictive algorythms and simulations, we were able to narrow down the number of possible outcomes to three. All of whitch will be discussed more in detail below.

We entered the Kepler system on the 29th of December 827 A.S. and after a short resupply at Ames Station we set out to start our research. The initial survey only took a couple of hours thanks to the localized nature of the phenomenon and the data accumulated by Ames Station's personell. Nevertheless we were able to analyze it and create a visual representation. After this we continued our survey for the next three days found, that the break away dark matter clouds that are spreading across the "western" part of the system are doing it slowly. Further analysis revealed that the speed at wich they grow is also relatively slow, and that their density varies based on their distance from the Denko cloud and the speed at wich they travel, as we also found out that the speed of the individual break aways also varies. We also detected a pattern in wich this happens and subsequently theorized that the speed and density is greatly linked to the unstable nature of the jump anomaly within the Denko cloud. We concluded that the clouds that have higher concentration and speed are created when the anomaly enters a relatively stable period resulting in a greater ammount of dark matter travelling through it. During our survey we managed to observe only two such periods and out of those two we only observed one in its entirety. The other one already reached it's peak and the anomaly started to enter it's unstable period gradually. The latter instance was at the begining of our survey. We also analyzied the trajectory of theese break aways as to find out wheter or not they pose a threat to the infrastructure of Kepler or Ames Station itself. As our survey continued we immediatly started working on our predictive algorythms, putting in all data we aquired either from our survey or from Ames's own findings and as of this day the situation is the following.

Several smaller break away clouds from Denko formed and are slowly travelling through the system. Their trajectory indicates that as of this moment they pose no direct threat on the infrastructure of the system however that could change should the jump hole manage to stabilize for a longer period of time or permanently, however given the extremely unstable nature of the jump hole it is unlikely this will happen as data also revealed that the intensity of the stable periods is decreasing. Meaning the jump hole is slowly but surely collapsing. With this in mind we were able to predict a number of possible outcomes all of wich could be considered good. However given the unpredictability of unstable jump holes we also started running simulations with less favorable conditions. To conclude the current situation there is no imminent danger to Ames or kepler's infrastructure, however we urge caution.

For the next few days our team ran simulations and after analyzing the results and narroving down to the most plausible outcomes from all the scenarios we were left with the following probabilities.

Scenario A:
The jump anomaly completly collapses within the next few months. Untill the collapse a number of break away clouds will form and will pick up an outbound trajectory leaving behind a small negligable ammount of dark matter residue across the system wich will further disperse to the point of no detection at all. If the tendency of the break aways more favored or rather common trajectories remain the same with only a marginal ammount heading towards the lane system on the "northern" part of the system the potential damage to said lanes is also negligable and wouldn't cause more problems than any other average repair did in Kepler before the current situation.

Scenario B:
The jump anomaly collapses but at a much slower rate. Virtually all the aformentioned points remain except due to the slower nature of the collapse the possibility of damaged lane system gets higher. We predict that parts of the lane to shikoku would become heavily damaged resulting in a fractured lane system untill repairs could be made.

Scenario C:
The jumphole once again collapses completly but not before a number of new break aways form with a direct trajectory towards the lane system in the northern area completly destroying the lanes leading to Shikoku jump gate leaving them beyond repair and prompting their complete reconstruction. Other possibilities using variables in Scenario C also included possible damage to the jump gate itself tho the propability of this occuring is somewhat low and the damage to the gate would not be substantial.

Scenario D:
Similar to Scenario B and C in nature in that the collapse once again happens and the lane system or gates get damaged. Except in this case it also applies to the southern system leading to Colorado. With mild damage to the lane system to both lanes. Other sub variants of this scenario also include the possibility of substantial damage to the entire lane network within the system and mild damage to the gates.

Scenario E:
The jumphole does not collapse and remains as is. Slowly but surely more and more break away clouds form and they slowly form a 4th dark matter cloud in the system. Mild damage might occour to the lane system.

Scenario G:
The jump anomaly stabilizes and dark matter starts pouring into the system at an unprecedented rate causing a new storm forming in kepler and later sweeping through it. Substantial damage to the entire infrastructure. Most propable scenario is complete destruction of the entire lane system and substantial damage to the jump gates. All of the scenarios we mentioned before left out Ames as in the scenarios and their sub variants the damage to the station itself was never too great. Mild at best but nothing that our current defense cannot withstand. In this scenario Ames could be damaged mildly or substantially depending on the intensity and duration of the storm. Another variant of this scenario also included one where Ames would get the brunt of the storm and while the damage to the lane system would be substantial to Ames the damage could potentially be catastrophic. However i need to emphasize that the propability of this scenario or any of it's variants is highly unlikely. But should this become the case we'd have ample time to prepare and abandon the station and the system through the galileo jump hole.

To conclude this section and our report in total. The most likely scenarios result in no damage or mild damage to the system's infrastructure. This however can change and as such further research into this situation is required for a more in depth and all encompasing report.
