Greetings professor Dawson. Let me introduce myself. I'm captain Roy Khan, commander of the Research Vessel Equinox. We're a small group of independent scientists, living from our research. Previously we were employed by IMG, because they didn't want to risk the lives (and maybe their precious ships) by trying to conduct researches in more dangerous systems. Our job was mainly scanning asteroid fields, but once we had to get into Omega-52, the territory of the SCRA. By entering the jump hole they started firing at us, without a word. Turning on the cruise engines we could escape, but the ship's hull was battered heavily. We fast scanned the target planet Tbilisi, and had to get out of there because of the coalition ships were chasing us. The escape was a bit easier, although several hull breaches were reported. We lost 6 members of the crew on that mission. And for what? For nothing. The IMG didn't even want to hear from us, maybe they tried to get rid of us, by sending there. Well, they almost succeded. Now we're on our own again, trying to keep the Equinox in one piece. I think you could use our help, and vice versa. I'm sending the data of the crew and the ship.

I hope we can join our forces in the name of science, and we can help each other.

Research is to see what everybody else has seen, and to think what nobody else has thought.
