Salutations. This is Pathfinder-1, Dante Flintlocke, reporting.

Too often we are distracted by other star systems and limitless wonders that we fail to realize the wonders lurking in our own backyard. During a jump malfunction to Tau-37, we were thrown back into normal space just outside of Tau-23. On our return flight to Ikarus, we noticed some strange readings nearby as well as a rather massive asteroid lurking in the Barrier. We pointed the Anomaly in the direction of the unusual readings and found a unique asteroid.

Attached are images of said asteroid. Cursory readings indicate unusual energy output that will require more research to ascertain their source. The sensor readings as well as the location of the asteroid have been forwarded on to researchers aboard Ikarus to investigate. At first glance, the asteroid appears to have splintered off from a larger source. As such, we will do an additional investigation of the system for further anomalies similar to this one and report their location and sensor readings at the earliest.

Flintlocke out.
