Cambridge Stellar Research, Surveillance Mission #4

[equinosz]

After handing over the energy cell to the TAZ, the Equinox and the Xaror headed towards the Pennsylvania system with the other ships in the docking bay.

The route was very calm and uneventful.

When we finally reached Pennsylvania system we met with Henderson and he showed us the way towards Landsdale.

CSR|Xaror: *destination set* *closing in on destination "Allentown Base"*
Enterprises-Sightseer: Oh, I see you on my scanners. Good day, Gentlemen. I trust you didn't have any trouble on your way?
CSR|RV-Equinox: Greetings, I have called the captain, he'll be here in a second.
Enterprises-Sightseer: Hmm, intrigueing, an Artificial Intelligence drone?
CSR|RV-Equinox: Cpt.Khan: Ah, greetings Henderson, sorry we were dicussing important things with the scientist onboard.
CSR|Xaror: *hostile contacts spottet*
Enterprises-Sightseer: Nothing to apologize for, I've got enough time. I'm glad that you arived here safely. We should proceed to *looks around* Landsdale...
CSR|RV-Equinox: Cpt.Khan: Indeed, we had no problems on the route. As you wish. Show us the way.
CSR|Xaror: *initiating ion drive*
Enterprises-Sightseer: Course set. This will be a bit of a long ride, a spledid time for a cup of coffee. Keep your eyes open, Xenos often like to lurk here.
CSR|RV-Equinox: Cpt.Roy: I'm more worried about the asteroids...
Enterprises-Sightseer: Just a bit more...
CSR|RV-Equinox: Cpt.Roy: A bigger one hits us, and the ship is in two pieces...
Enterprises-Sightseer: Well, I trust in your skills.
CSR|RV-Equinox: Cpt. Khan: I trust in the skills of my pilot.
Enterprises-Sightseer: Approaching Landsadale, finally. Here it is, quite gloomy is it not. We hope to change that.
CSR|Xaror: *initiating planetary scans*
Enterprises-Sightseer: I see you already found the wreckage. I've discovered it the first time I scouted these areas.
CSR|RV-Equinox: Cpt.Khan: And why do you plan to construct here? In the middle of nothing.
Enterprises-Sightseer: Well, I spoke about the structure right?
CSR|RV-Equinox: Cpt.Khan: Yes, of course. But does it worth? Oh, I guess that's our part to find it out.
Enterprises-Sightseer: It's positioned on the northern pole right here. Oh, it will be, trust me.
CSR|RV-Equinox: Cpt.Khan: Xaror, please take orbital scans of the structure.
Enterprises-Sightseer: Whoever built it, probably had good reasons.
CSR|RV-Equinox: Cpt.Khan: And where is the nearest station? Or we have to rely on the supplies we have right now?
Enterprises-Sightseer: I'd say Planet Erie.
CSR|RV-Equinox: Cpt.Khan: Xaror, do you have the necessary scans?
CSR|Xaror: *scans complete* *structure spottet**minimal antimatter signatures spottet*
CSR|RV-Equinox: Cpt.Khan: Okay, than I suggest landing close to the structure.
CSR|Xaror: *warning* *antimatter radiation detected*
Enterprises-Sightseer: It...has some active components?
CSR|RV-Equinox: Cpt.Khan: Level of radiation?
CSR|Xaror: *radiation level: insecure*
Enterprises-Sightseer: Hm, we shouldn't go down there without some considerable protection.
CSR|Xaror: *information: "The safety of the crew can be provided by the use of radiation suits" *
Enterprises-Sightseer: Very well, I think I have some in the ship's storage.
CSR|RV-Equinox: Cpt.Khan: Is the landing safe?
CSR|Xaror: *landing zone detected* *location: 5 clicks away from the structure*
CSR|RV-Equinox: Cpt.Khan: Right, that's good. Prepare for landing!
Enterprises-Sightseer: Very well! I will be landing with you.
CSR|RV-Equinox: Planetary engines online, calculating landing vectors.
CSR|Xaror: *preperations complete* *initiating orbital dive*

The group landed as close to the structure as possible. The initial search team consisting of 3 crew member of the Equinox didn't entered the building, only took a few closer pictures, and mapped the surroundings.
