USS Republic Mission Briefing 51802.26 - Season 26

The AT is getting close to reaching the plateau which had been creating the difficulty for transport, travel and colonization in general up here. The enhancers that were sent down are helping some, but even the tricorders are picking up some static, but still can make out many things

STSF_BluRox: As the AT reaches the top of the ridge leading out to the wide plateau ahead of them..

Heather Jamieson: :: Still feeling like she's slowing the group down ::

STSF Seiben: ::helps hold up Heather::

Heather Jamieson: :; Nods to Seiben ::

STSF Seiben: S'alright?

Rue Wydown: ::pauses:: That's actually quite nice.

STSF Seiben: Yes, that's one fine view.

 

ACTION: Through the trees ahead, it almost appears to be shiny glitter brightening the area almost like one would see a rainbow in the distance

 

Heather Jamieson: The area seems extra shiny

STSF_BluRox: There, but just an optical illusion

August Jax Robinson: looks like it's make of glass, or frozen over in ice

August Jax Robinson: I am betting on ice

STSF_BluRox: (it's in the air, shiny streams)

STSF Seiben: ::takes a view shots with his holocam with his free hand::

STSF Seiben: a few shots*

Heather Jamieson: :: Flips open her tricorder ::

STSF Seiben: Does that work?

Heather Jamieson: Mmmm. Not very well.

Rue Wydown: What's scans telling you?

Heather Jamieson: A mix of signals all over this area. It's try to determine a pattern.

August Jax Robinson: ::Hands Rue a Power bar:::

Heather Jamieson: Let me lower the scanning range.

August Jax Robinson: ::bites into one herself:: how far you think that is

Rue Wydown: Hard to estimate from the looks of things. I thought just a half hour or a bit. What do you think?

Heather Jamieson: May have to investigate closer.

August Jax Robinson: how far does your tricorder say H ?

Heather Jamieson: Range is one kilometer now

Rue Wydown: One Kilo isn't too bad.

Heather Jamieson: We are on the perimeter of this phenomenon.

STSF Seiben: Hmm

 

August Jax Robinson: Well, seems far when you have dead weight to drag with you :::Heather::

Heather Jamieson: :: looks ahead of her :: Looks like if the readings were any more intense we could not enter.

Heather Jamieson: I know you are there for me Commander Robinson.

August Jax Robinson: then you know more than me on that one

STSF Seiben: (I'll be there for you...when the rain starts to pour..)

Heather Jamieson: Wonder if we have to wait for what they saw.

Rue Wydown: She's not dead weight. Let's get moving.

STSF Seiben: ::speak for yourself!:: Yes, let's

Heather Jamieson: :: Intensifies the scan as they move, and as she hobbles along ::

August Jax Robinson: ::takes Heathers Tricorder:: focus on walking

Heather Jamieson: Give that back NOW.

STSF Seiben: ::follows Jax::

August Jax Robinson: come get it ::Smirks and keeps walking::

Rue Wydown: We're going to review what we know so far. Some anomaly that's causing various issues with the planetary settlement. Holly states it seems like readings from a what....?

STSF Seiben: ::thinking about the cat fight that would ensue if Heather's ankle wasn't injured::

 

Action:: As they move along, there are areas like this shimmering in various locations, but more so near a small river bed that leads down a falls to the lake below

Heather Jamieson: :: Not moving any better ::

 

August Jax Robinson: maybe it is all this sparkly crap doing it

Rue Wydown: yes, but what is it?

STSF Seiben: ::takes out his tricorder and starts scanning:: Is it centred towards the bodies of water?

STSF Seiben: ::walks along::

Heather Jamieson: :: Getting a feel for the area ::

STSF Seiben: Sure does look nice

Heather Jamieson: Feel like we are walking into something...

STSF Seiben: If so, my tricorder isn't able to detect what it is

August Jax Robinson: like a Warp core or Disney Planet?

STSF Seiben: I hope it's a warp core. My credit card can't take another blow from Disney Planet

 

STSF_BluRox: (hint....Seiben..if you scroll back through your PM's, you may (will) find a good description)

 

Heather Jamieson: :: Bends down to touch the ground with her hand ::

August Jax Robinson: something up with the ground H?

Heather Jamieson: Sometimes the senses can pick up signals the tricorder can't.

August Jax Robinson: no... no they can't

August Jax Robinson: I'm an engineer, trust me

STSF Seiben: ::checks his tricorders:: Right, it seems to be coming from that mountainous area over there by that lake, judging by these energy readings they could be emitting strong EMPs, which may explain why our equipment isn't working.

Heather Jamieson: I don't trust you, that's the thing.

Heather Jamieson: Is there a pattern to the pulses?

STSF Seiben: Too hard to tell with these readings, I'm afraid.

Rue Wydown: ::scans through her tricorder to play back what Holly sent them::

STSF Seiben: But, it does seem to centred in that area.

Holly> After several scans from the ship while we orbited, and from reading I've compared to other phenomenon that we've encountered, it is almost as if we were picking up emanations similar to a neutron star.....

Holly> Will need additional readings from the surface near the dam and lake, and up on the mountain plateau, but I may have a theory once we have the readings. Holly out.

Heather Jamieson: Neutron star.... :: thinks ::

STSF Seiben: Ooh

Rue Wydown: ::facepalms::

August Jax Robinson: +Holly+ how about we send a drone down to collect samples

STSF_BluRox: +Jax+ Mechanical and propulsion fail in this region, hence...why your team is there in person

 

STSF_BluRox: PAUSE SIM

STSF_BluRox: PAUSE SIM

STSF_BluRox: PAUSE SIM

 

August Jax Robinson: ::Paused::

STSF_BluRox: OK, WE'LL PICK UP HERE NEXT WEEK WITH YOU ALL TAKING SOME SCANS, MAKING A FEW HYPOTHEIS, FROM what you find, etc...

STSF_BluRox: sorry caps

August Jax Robinson: Engineers don't Hypothosss

Rue Wydown: And on that note....

STSF_BluRox: (well, if you enjoy camping with Heather so much, you can stay there until enough hypothesis are made_

STSF_BluRox: ok, then...Crew Dismissed, we'll see you all next week or on Talon
