Scientific Report – Log 10

So now we have the 10th log which is a very important one.. so let me start.

So today the weapon got tested with the Black Nova Compound... The first step was to implement it into the weapon which worked good.. but after some time I got a little bit dizzy... I don't know why or how but I guess that I may work too much with the Black Nova compound. I first thought that it might leak somewhere, but this would probably harm me more than getting a bit dizzy *she laughs*

So after the Black Nova compound was added, we started with the tests right away.. We used the same programmes to test it. The whole looked good it may need some fine adjustments but the rest works, we also have the expected energy level which is also great this means the weapon doesn't need any additional upgrades. The only test that was worrying us a bit was some kind of heat jam in the pipe.. I first thought that this might cause by the hull around the barrels, but we found nothing that could have caused that.. but this is something that I will test in space under real conditions, we have installed security measurements in the weapon anyway in case something like that would happen.

*she looks a bit unsure about what she said*

We also mounted one weapon on my ship to see how it fits on a universal mount.. well.. we found out that, we have a little problem with amplyfier built into the socket of the weapon.. the main problem was that the amplyfier blocked the turret from turning.. which is a bit ehm useless.. we tried to figure out how to solve this problem and we came to the conclusion that we could build it in a separate box outside of the weapon.. of course this would be slightly more work that needs to be done on each weapon, but we didn't found any other solution yet..

So after the box was built we wielded it to the weapon, and we made the whole wiring, and built in the amplyfier.. we mounted the weapon again to see if this works how we expected it.. we tested different angles and the turning speed.. it all looks good.. I think we can start the production of our first own weaponry.. but some tests will be needed to test the weapon in real conditions before I can safely hand it out to the Raiders and the Silver Sun.. but once the tests are done we will be able to mass produce them..

So I guess this will be my last entry besides the real condition testing.. I will inform my brothers and sisters about our success.. it was a long way, but we finaly made it..

Cortana out.
