Date: 16th of June, 834 A.S.
Location: Tau-23
Prepared by: Captain Jasper Kincaid, Anomaly Research Vessel Quantum Drift
Anomaly Designation: Event Horizon Beta
Type: Random Ion Storm Generator
Coordinates: D-2 Sector (Sirius Standard)
Overview
Upon initial entry into the Tau-23 sector, the Quantum Drift detected significant electromagnetic fluctuations and random ion storm activity. Closer investigation led to the identification of an anomaly, initial designation: Event Horizon Beta. This anomaly appears to intermittently generate unpredictable ion storms, impacting the surrounding space.
Notable Observations
Another Corvo research vessel was present at the anomaly site, indicating prior interest or detection by other research parties.
The anomaly's ion storms exhibit irregular patterns, with sudden bursts of high-energy particles and electromagnetic interference. These storms pose a substantial risk to both navigation and communication systems in the vicinity.
Immediate Actions
Conducted preliminary sensor scans to map the extent of the ion storm activity.
Documented the presence and condition of the Corvo research vessel for further analysis and historical records.
Dispatched a drone to capture high-resolution imagery and gather additional data on the anomaly’s immediate surroundings.
Next Steps
Deploy autonomous probes to monitor the anomaly’s behavior and gather detailed data on ion storm generation mechanisms.
Schedule follow-up missions to assess the anomaly's long-term stability and potential impacts on nearby space stations.
