The Corsica Incident

As you are likely aware, last month one of our engineering labs in Corsica suffered a severe accident. The lab was heavily damaged, and multiple personnel were injured. I would like to commend Juan Cortés for his quick actions in the wake of the incident, taking control of the situation in the absence of Director Pérez and working to contain damage.

Director Pérez was injured in the incident. We are still piecing together the information but it appears that during a physical examination of the test article she came into direct contact with a fragment of nomad material, which pierced through her cleansuit and lodged in her arm. Following this she suffered a severe psychotic break, resulting in the events leading up to her capture six days later.

Through the actions of Observadora López, our Gen’an allies, and several other outcast ships, Señora Pérez was brought back home for treatment. We are unsure if she can be cured of her ailment, but we will do our utmost to cure her.

Moving Forward

These events have put into shocking relief the risks associated with our experimental projects on Corsica. While we believe these are key to the future of all Maltese, we recognize the risk such events place on the entire Corsica complex. We cannot allow our pursuit of the future to endanger the present. With the loss of Director Pérez the project finds itself without senior leadership as well, Cortés is a skilled scientist but he lacks the administration experience to handle the entire project, nor would his skills be well utilized in such a role. To that end I have volunteered to take over control of our engineering division.

As my first act I have ordered the repair of damage caused to Corsica, and the construction of a new set of engineering labs on Alba Station. All of our experimental engineering projects will henceforth be carried out there, safely away from Corsica. The labs are being included in a general refit of the station, which will hopefully conclude in the next few months.

My new duties preclude me from continuing to serve in the Comandantes Alpha, so it is with great regret that I resign my position as Alpha Conqueror. I have faith that our Alphas will continue to lead the Malta Hyperspace Starfleet with great skill, and bring a brighter future for all Malta. I look forward to continuing to participate in our great work from my new position on Alba.

Eduardo Montalban - Alpha Emeritus
