29/10/828, 1200 - Our calculations proved correct, but there was still a very significant deviation from our planned position. There were several error messages and errors on the control panel of our 'Rift Drive', presumably the synchronization with our navigation computer did not go quite as planned. As soon as we have a chance, we will have the drive adjusted by Starfliers just to be sure and run further tests.

I think we have arrived at the right time, some of the crew were beginning to show faint signs of prolonged separation from Malta and the higher doses of Cardamine were no longer helping. If we had stayed in that Dark Matter Storm any longer, it could have cost us several lives - or all of us, had a similar incident repeated itself after the second ignition of the 'Rift Drive'.
Fortunately, we did not land in any fog or storm and managed to find an accurate course to Malta. It took us a few days to get home, but compared to the weeks in Dark Matter Storm, it is nothing. We took advantage of the free time and prepared for a full crew leave once we were safely docked on Valletta again.
The ship is awaiting a full diagnostic and decontamination from radiation and we will all take a month off to recuperate in Malta, those more seriously burned by radiation can take even longer. There is no hurry at the moment.
