Escher.
We have a problem.
While charting the reaches of Tau-44 on the OCS Repentance, we came across something we hadn't seen before. And I don't just mean in the system -- I mean ever. I've never seen anything quite like it and there's nothing in any of the databases we have access to about it or the class of installation it is.
This message is to you and you only, and still, just in case somehow it gets out, the image attached below has been edited to remove any hints as to the location of the structure.
All we know about it is that it's flashing a blank IFF transponder. Scans show it's... I don't even know. There's nothing in it that we can tell without bombarding it with piles of radiation and god knows what that would do to it. I'm transferring this primarily to your ministry since this is... you know what? This shit isn't my domain unless it needs to be blown up. I'd ask you to consider it of prime interest for the Ministry of Intelligence but I have a feeling that as soon as you see it there'll be a black ops wing en route.
