Ingenuus R&D: Lab 002

[Remnant]

After the shield systems that were completed, the next on my list was perhaps the most important of all. Fail-safe mechanisms. Right now, the only reason the core is working, is because the equipment is working at full potential. If one were to fail, I am afraid that things will get bad, very quickly. As I started working on what potentials there were for having some more.. security against overloads, I however have stumbled upon something quite interesting. During one of our tests, we decided to test what a lasers effect would be on the core. A strong one at that. Quite frankly, I didn't know what I was pursuing at the time, that's just what we scientists do. We sorta.. try things.

At any rate, the laser did something which we did not expect. It started to bend. Upon study on the area where it did this, we have discovered an EM field with slightly different properties than a normal one that we can generate with other equipment. I really don't know how to take this, I haven't seen anything like it.

Laser being 'bent' at close proximity

I've forwarded the reports to McCool, hopefully he can begin to figure out what this exactly is. If he deems it worthy to pursue more, I suppose I'll put off my work some more and take a deeper look at it. Until then.
