FROM: SCEC CRO Dr. Mstislav Belov
RE: Expedition to omicron Alpha & Beta

---

Comrade High Commissar,

The crew of “Kardashev” salutes you as one!

Hereby we present you the report on our recent expedition to Omicron Alpha & Beta.

---

REPORT SUMMARY

---

“Bystrina” expedition alongside Militsiya forces carried out a swift recon mission to Omicron Alpha and Beta for the purpose of updating the maps of the systems, collecting intelligence and studying points of research interest.

Throughout the expedition our “Sipukha” agent Major Grachov managed to circumvent Outcasts’ comm channels to extract some intel of no particular interest. We also managed to spot the source of cryo organisms in Omicron Beta and get samples of liquid cardamine that might be beneficial for “Tselina” project.

In Omicron Epsilon and Tohoku systems we spotted asteroids of natural origin that seem to be remains of what used to be a moon or a planet that was destroyed 100-200 million years ago under unknown circumstances. We also spotted a base of REDACTED in Omicron Epsilon system.

All ships returned safe to Omega 55 system afterwards.

The route to Omicron Alpha was without major incidents.

In Sigma 17 we became witnesses to a clash between GMG vessel and Corsairs. We decided not to interfere and to carry on.

In Omicron Beta we studied planet Elysium, that proved to be useless for our goals. The firewall of neighbouring Outasts’ Galicia facility was circumvented by Major Grachov. However, out of Outcasts’ banter we could not extract valuable information except for the location of cry organisms’ collecting spot. “Kuzma-2” conducted a recon sweep and obtained the necessary samples for the further study. The pilot also obtained liquid cardamine, that might prove to be useful in the future research.

We then proceeded to Omicron Alpha system, where we updated the map info. We visited the wreckage of “Hispania” to pay tribute to brave Coalitioners through whom the great Communistic idea was transferred to Sirius sector.

We safely reached Omicron Epsilon system that was obviously under control of the Order. We spotted a few major facilities of theirs, including Carthage Shipyard. It is in this system where we found peculiar asteroid formations that are presumed to be remains of a celestial object of moon or planetoid class. The radio-carbon analysis indicated that the catastrophe that caused the demise of the object mentioned happened between 100 and 200 million years ago. This is very recently by cosmic standards. The patterns of tectonic fractures indicate that the crack happened due to a massive strike from outside, not from inside of planetary core. Thus, we assume there might be three hypotheses:

1. Collision of the object with a massive asteroid from beyond;
   
2. Collision of the object with another celestial object of the system, like planet and its mood or with another planet;
   
3. Use of WMD of immense power.
   

The pattern of chemical elements distribution in the remains was uniform and we failed to find traces of other celestial objects. Therefore, although unlikely from the first glance, hypothesis 3 is quite probable and should not be dismissed. However, further meticulous surveys are needed.

Our team also spotted a lair of REDACTED in 2C quadrant. The base was not affected by any of our weaponry, including the heavy ones. The base also used sphere-shaped glowing objects that were emitting waves similar to our generators. We assume, these are REDACTED primary source of energy on their facilities, since when we started shooting at them the power from the guns defending the lair was diverted. In case of contacts with such objects, extreme caution is highly advised.

In the system of Tohoku we spotted the same asteroid-remains of an unknown celestial object with similar time of destruction. The proximity of the systems and similarity of the patterns contribute to hypothesis 3. Our team also found the facility “Heaven’s Gate” that we read about in the reports on “Nomad Wars” of the Order and other factions.

In Sigma 59 we spotted GMG giant space station “Niigata Space City”. Our particular attention was drawn to solar panels used for harvesting solar energy from the nearest star. We scanned the structure thereof and believe, we can reverse-engineer them for the use of the Coalition.

Afterwards, the forces returned safely to Omega 55 system.

FURTHER RESEARCH NOTES & CONCLUSIONS

---

1. Reverse-engineering of GMG solar panels is to be launched at Mykolaiv Station.
   
2. Further geological survey of asteroid formations in Omicron Epsilon and Tohoku is needed. If hypothesis 3 is confirmed, our treatment of REDACTED should be changed as well as the treat we attribute to them. Their history is also to be revised.
   
3. Omicron Alpha and Omicron Beta are of no particular interest to the Coalition. This might change should the study of the obtained samples of liquid cardamine and cryo organisms yield valuable results.
   

Although the expedition did not contribute significantly to “Renegade” and “Tselina” projects, the overall data collected enlarge our database and constitute value as a basis for future research.
