The ship is done, and my neck is aching from sleeping in a plasti-steel chair. The modifications were moderately, I cannot complain, but my spectrometer registers errors in certain frequencies, mostly in the infrared. Random generation of numbers seems to have a slight pattern to it, but these things are to be expected, I suppose. Maybe someday I'll have the funds and a capable technical crew to overhaul the system someday. For now, this will do. I've also had a small telescope installed to augment my scanners. Visual confirmation never hurt anyone.

The conditions in which I'm recording this message are decidedly favorable to my last. I'm in my new craft and have completed an interesting day of field research. Though very little pertained directly to the study of my subject, the Nomads, it was fascinating to see some of the rarities of Sirius.

I passed a bit of a gathering on the lane leading to Planet Manhattan and got this shot. He was too far out and moving fast for anything but a cursory scan, one that turned up nothing interesting. In any case, I turned to questioning citizens for any leads on my studies. To understand a Nomad, I had to first find one. Given some of the reports that I received, I moved to Pennsylvania, apparently a hotbed for UFO sightings. While there, I met a pilot named Orb//Pael who was able to give me the following scan:

Not much to observe from the shot, but I paid the pilot for the file regardless. A short time later, I was tracked down by a ship calling its self 'ManBearPig.' I believe the pilot was... touched in the head slightly, but seemed clear enough with the information he provided me. Apparently, his Uncle was a miner, and had passed two of the creatures near the primary star of New York. I thanked the boy for the lead and fled back to New York with all the speed that I could muster. While flying to the point in space that I presumed must have been close to the sighting, the pilot of 'ManBearPig' sent me additional information on his Uncle's experience with Nomads.

Judging from the context of the conversation, I presume that his Uncle did the bidding of these Nomads at some point in time. However, the likelihood of truth in this is lacking. As I said, touched in the head and was also reluctant to speak further about his Uncle. Maybe he fears repercussions? But it is good to keep even second hand data in mind; there's often at least a kernel of truth to every story.

Unfortunately, I still have yet to make contact with the Nomads, but believe that I may be able to find them around the stated star in the New York system. Odd that they would choose such a populated system to send lone aliens. I must be careful, perhaps they have a means of entering our space en mass. Best not to speculate, I must sleep if I'm to continue on my excursion on the morrow.

This is Dr. Sagan, signing off.
