After receiving orders to scout the Ω2 system, I drew a modified Arrastra-class mining ship from SIS ship pool. My usual assigned ship was being fitted with a cloaking device at that time, and was consequently out of service. I also felt that a mining ship would draw less attention in the region. It was a sensible precaution as I received no hostile attention, or attention of any kind, during this mission. My findings follow.

The Ω2 system appears to be a young one. The system is centred on a red dwarf with a prominent accretion disk and protoplanets in various stages of development.

I entered the system from the Ω7 Jump Hole and found myself in a lava field. My sensors indicated that it was likely the result of a protoplanetary collision. The field appears to contain exploitable amounts of uncut diamonds.

In addition to the jump hole to Ω7, I also located jump holes to Ω3, Ω47, and Ω54. The Ω3 and Ω47 jump holes are located in otherwise unremarkable gas clouds, though the area surrounding the Ω47 hole contains pockets of explosive gas. The jump hole to Ω54 is located inside a larger lava field which also appears to contain exploitable amounts of uncut diamonds. The area surrounding the Ω54 jump hole contains pockets of explosive gas.

There are two prominent protoplanets in the accretion disk, designated Leisi and Salme. Both are in the early stages of formation, are still molten and have yet to clear their orbits of debris. Neither protoplanet appears to be of more than scholarly interest. In the area near Salme, I located a beacon laid by earlier prospectors in an area rich in uncut diamonds. The rest of the accretion disk does not appear to be rich in exploitable resources, though it may warrant a second look by explorers better outfitted for the task.

Aside from the prospector's beacon, I located no other signs of any permanent presence in the system.
