Ship Log #91
Aboard the IRG|Aurora.Borealis, Chester

Brandon has gone to and returned from a hyperspace survey expedition to the Chester System. Brad attempted to go to Chester on his own but was driven off by a nomad hive that responded to his presence. He decided to contact Battlegroup Auxesia for a heavy escort into and out of Chester.

__________________________________________________________

The Aurora is handling her new reactor upgrade beautifully. Not only have we deceased our turnaround time for survey missions we've also managed to increase our loiter time by almost a day. While its pushing the limits of the crew they are responding admirably to the increase in duty and responsibility.

Hyperspace Survey - Chester - Bretonia

Hyperspace Survey Report EP-7958
Omega 3 - Bretonia

The Chester Baxter Object, much like the one found in Omega 3, contains hyperspace disturbance trails. One of the hyperspace trails appears to be aliened with a nomad hive located within the system. The other four disturbances are spread out on various headings unrelated to the hive. One disturbance leads off in a direction outside of any human inhabited system. The other three disturbances again indicate that there is travel towards Liberty, but are likewise undefined enough to get a reasonable reading on a heading.

Several anomalies were encountered within the debris fields surrounding the Nomad Hive. Further study is required to determine if the Baxter Object is related to the Nomad Hive and the radiation zones that surround it.

While the survey wasn't complete enough to give us a direct course to another Baxter Object, unlike the one in Omega 3. The computer has narrowed down our search to Kansas, Alberta, and Cassini based off my previous surveys. Its been quite awhile since I've been to Liberty, I doubt its changed much.
