The biggest downside of placing a ship into mothball is the smell. It doesn't quite smell natural. Outerspace has this slightly burnt smell to it, something about the ionization of what few free-floating partials around. Point being, when you finally get everything pressurized again and a crew aboard the smell doesn't quite ever go away.

With the recent re-stabilization of this Baxter Object, along with an uptick of Nomadic activity within Liberty proper another full survey of the Foster Base Anomaly was requested. Initial results indicate that the object has indeed formed a proper event horizon that has, so far, destroyed all probes upon contact. Mass estimates of the object place it near 22.8x10^9 tons, making it the most massive Baxter Object recorded in our databanks. While the presence of what appears to be a solid event horizon may indicate that the Baxter Object is approaching a point of stability to form a new jump hole connection this stabilization could occur quite literally tomorrow, or several hundred years from now, if at all. While there are notable gravitational disturbances throughout the rest of the area we have attributed these disturbances to regular Ingenuus Hyperspace Departures to our facilities deeper in the Omegas and Omicrons; given their directional bearings and vectors.
