The Starannist' made it's maiden voyage this cycle, and it's crew have passed their first tests with flying colours.

Since the previous report was uploaded it has become evident that the commune is lacking in the specialist equipment necessary for a detailed survey of the 'Knossos object'. Steps are being taken to remedy this shortfall. Most likely, we shall need to reach out to the other Coalition organisations for aid. To reach out to them makes me nervous, more so than any external party. What will they think of us? The isolation has been long in it's making. Will they accept us? In their minds, will we still be... Regardless, it must be done. We shall have to brave our re-integration with courage, comrades.

In the meantime, let us make the most of what we have available. A few Voyager freight-class vessels have been retrofitted with what equipment we have available; surface scanners and mining arrays. This has enabled the Starannist', the first of these vessels, to collect fragments and objects in close orbit of the 'Knossos object'. On it's first mission, it has collected one thousand two hundred of these relic objects for evaluation and analysis. Laboratories three and four; this is your task. Please carry it out swiftly and report to me as soon as is reasonable to do so with your progress. Make requisition requests to the Starannist' and other survey teams if more samples are required.

Survey teams. The situation in the deep Omicrons is delicate. Keep yourselves as discrete as possible. We cannot afford to draw the attention of the myriad militarised organisations that lay claim to that space. In addition to the previous upload, I have since received intelligence that the situation in Pi itself is fragile. There are entities that reside in the galatic northern portions of the system, and we have been requested by one such artificial entity to keep outside of that zone. Respect their request. Respect the area - do not exhaust the site and stay cool headed. Vigilance, as always comrades, but the sword will not help us gather the answers we seek. Unity with others shall.

Sub-commune two. Your task is to develop and design a new survey craft that has the technical capabilities we need to properly ascertain the nature of the 'Knossos object'. It will also need to be able to be discrete, preferably with stealth capabilities. I believe the core-world phrase is 'blue-sky thinking'. Ha... let us call it orange-sky thinking. Provide me with two designs; one as if there were no constraints on resource. The other, as if we were limited by our comrade's production capabilities. Take your time. We need to get this right.
