Admiral Solandros,

That's the problem, I want all of the answers. About everything. However I'm not naive enough to believe I'll get them.

Not yet, at least.

What exactly was the catalyst that started your disagreement with them 36 years ago? I'm sure I can assume, but to hear it from the source would be best.

Our contractor delivering the supplies was surprised to find a return shipment. As was I, to receive a gift basket of this magnitude. Especially since the Crayterians seem very twitchy all of a sudden.

If my techs are right in their assessment, these are scanners to find trace hints of contact with Nomads? Like our own, but less... prone to false positives. I assume these actually work? Unlike our own.

So, how do we operate these things then? Are they for ships or purely stations?

More questions. As always.

Fairfax out.
