For all who concerns in Colonial government. I am glad to hear from our allies in Coronado again.

As no doubt your Military officers would had shared with you, The Colonial Military has support of entire 3rd Order Battlegroup, commandeered by Admiral J. Hunter. Disabling of alien-made FTL portals is something we have been tirelessly working on for more than a decade. It is one project among wider umbrella of Contingency Nemesis however all of its details are classified to all but the highest echelons of The Order. We were however conducting various... experiments in application of said Contingency and have already selected Coronado Knossos-class portal as one of the candidates. Exact details concerning how to end this menace will be shared on need to know basis with your military commanders.

Furthermore, some of the theory concerning what we name "Knossos" - an alien jumpgate. It is correct in assumption that physical attempt to decay the gate by means of sheer firepower are generally destined to fail. We do not intend to expend our fleet assets at most brute and most costly solution to the issue at hand. Those constructs have endured centuries, millenias... and far longer periods of time, surviving cataclysms of interstellar scale and remaining in various state of functioning. Destruction of the gate by any way known to us is however perfectly safe for Coronado and well-being of Colonial Authority in the system. To support my claim, I have read the Texas gate reports issued to the government officials centuries ago concerning why the experiment has failed. Ultimately what doomed the system was in fact misaligning hyperspace transit through dark matter clouds clustered around House of Liberty, not gate itself.
