Your name:
Albert McKenzie

Your desired callsign:
McKenzie

Age:
33

Origin:
Bretonia

Area of skills/expertise/experience:
Hyperspace theory, rare resource examination and specialized in the use of the "Corvo"-Class civilian explorer.

Vessel(s):
'\S/'Arcturus, '\S/'Cephei

Past Contact with Auxesia:
I'm too busy to look over our past, there is enough history between us to not give you a briefing here.

Why do you wish to help us?:
A direct line to the research teams aboard Valravn and the Technocracy as a whole would be beneficial to myself and the teams on board Starfliers Research Complex. We have had contact in the past, however most of that was handled by our leader. Scientist to scientist, researcher to researcher, a direct line between like-minded individuals and groups, especially us, would be best.

Uh... I'll mark this one as approved too until an officer can officialy file the paperwork.

I'll just repeat what I said to your colleague, but shorter;

I'm interested in making a minified jump drive to fit into fightercraft and I will require additional manpower. I suspect your people would boon greatly from pushing what gear you have available for exploration, if you are interested.

Albert McKenzie, Starfliers To: Revenant, Technocracy of Auxo Subject: Minified Rift-Leaping Module Approved, this is good news. Our experience utilizing hyperspace matrixes and our now outdated information regarding entry points with Jump Drives will certainly help with this. Where and when do we start? As always, Godspeed

Albert McKenzie, Starfliers To: Revenant, Technocracy of Auxo Subject: Handing over an asset With no word from you, your teams, or your staff on our Research Complex, we have endeavored to take on a project ourselves. One that entails improving the sensor suites of our three Multi-Purpose Research Vessels. In order for us to continue, we do need to hand over to the Technocracy a most peculiar item. A Dark Matter Core, recovered and brought back with us when we noticed a new opening within the Earhart Sector. Only until now have we done superficial scans and observations, though this has come at some small cost. Some of my teams are now on medical leave as part of their time spent studying this. You may find our report on our servers, though we do think it can help us with what we are looking to do. It is unfortunate that we are not in a position to learn more, as I fear something much worse could happen if this Core stays with us any longer. Do you have a vessel to pick up this asset? As always, Godspeed

You did not receive the message? Concerning. I apologise for not responding - we have been quite occupied, but I have verification from the Directorate of approval on these projects.

An escort team will be sent out to help relocate the sample. Be warned, one mistake can spell great disaster for us all, so they will be these to assist you in the relocation.

But I have firm belief in that assessing these containment samples may be able to unravel an entirely new sector of energy sciences. Though perhaps you do not want to play with fate and utilise these as a direct power source, but rather that we can attempt to siphon it gradually in effort to understand how to draw dark matter energies from the universe itself. If not at the very least, transfer some of this enigmatic energy to power newer systems. I suspect our Azurite supply will come in handy here.

In interest of these studies, we are willing to permit the Starfliers to assist in these studies on our research facility, if you wish to assist us in decyphering the data. However, an NDA clause must be signed and adhered to. This data is incredibly dangerous and we cannot allow it to get out.

Albert McKenzie, Starfliers To: Revenant, Technocracy of Auxo Subject: Agreed to the NDA I appreciate your swiftness to relocate the asset. It is of great importance to learn as much as we can about this Core. With our superficial scans, of which have been made available to you, I am also curious if it can be used as some form of higher capacity power source for our sensor suites. The "Augur"-Class scanner built into our M.R.V. fleet is handicapped by it's replenishable battery banks. We are looking to remove this limitation. If an NDA must be signed for further co-operation, then I will arrange my signature upon the document during my next visit to Aergia. The staff who are out on medical leave have been advised to return 8 days from now. These teams include four by ten man specialized groups in addition to eight by five man flexible teams. Once they return, I shall direct them to Aergia to sign off on the NDA and to start on any tasks you may have ready for them. Formerly, Godspeed

Albert McKenzie, Starfliers To: Revenant, Technocracy of Auxo Subject: Staff has been cleared. Our research teams have just been cleared and are preparing to be relocated to Aergia. I do apologize, their medical leave was extended to ensure that the side effects were not serious. A couple of these teams will stay behind to work on a Hydroponics project. You shall expect them to arrive in a day or so via an Orbital Spa & Cruise freighter. The ferry in charge of transit is called "High Night Wonders", they do have some peculiar names...

Albert McKenzie, Starfliers To: Administration, Technocracy of Auxo Subject: Hydroponics System Hello, Auxesia. We have a status update about our newly designed "Gaia"-Class hydroponics system. We have obtained plans from the Zoners within the Omicrons and have hired a specialized crew to run the system. After testing the design for the last few weeks and making necessary adjustments, we have achieved full self-sufficiency. This means that regular upkeep for our base has been significantly lessened or completely removed. With this gone, a large amount of manpower and financial leeway has opened up, allowing us to direct more work into our current research projects. I believe Leon gave you updates in the past, wanted to continue this as it means a level of transparency between us. Formerly, Godspeed

Albert McKenzie, Starfliers To: Administration, Technocracy of Auxo Subject: ARAPSS Mk. VIII Hello, Auxesia. I have begun to read over the reports from our teams on Aergia. From what I can see, this artefact is one significantly sized question mark. As much as it is fascinating that an object like this exists out in the uncharted worlds, I am starting to believe that it will not be suitable to have this object interact with any electrical systems of a starship. Also considering your own testing regarding the human psyche, carrying around a fragment of this Dark Matter Core will do us more harm than good. The last few days have been spent looking at alternatives regarding an alternate power source for the ARAPSS Mk. VIII. As we do not utilize offensive arms on our ships, this leaves unused circuitry on our Deep Space Explorers that could be internally reworked to funnel power from the ship's reactor directly into the scanner. We are looking to remove the use of the Anomaly batteries, as it hinders our ability to be efficient. The use of your drydock beside the Citadel would be most appropriate to test this theory. I would like to kindly request to have my own personal explorer, the '\S/'Arcturus, be moored on site to have this investigated further. Formerly, Godspeed

Albert McKenzie,

I've been watching this study with great interest. The risks undertaken simply to develop an understanding of the object as we do now were great, and there is still far more to do when it comes to uncovering and unlocking the potential of that Dark Matter Core. Developments into the matter will continue.

Consider your request approved, in the meantime. I would recommend trying to run a bypass from your capacitors. As you've said yourself: You don't make use of weapons. It shouldn't be too difficult to theory-craft a system of rotating diodes to provide the necessary energy supply from the reactor itself.

Good luck with your task.

- Leviathan
