"Curiousity Is In"

Here, once again, is another of my brilliant logs.

Happy reading!

We were on our way back. I only got a few hours of sleep before we lost contact with... something. I can't remember. It really has been a long few weeks. But, anyway, we lost contact with one thing, but kept contact with another. Unfortunately, I can't explain it. We should have lost both of the contacts at the same time. But, whether Aegis is gone or not, we are on our way back to whatever is there now. I am expecting to find debris from who knows what, and more than likely several science vessels on their way a few days behind us. Obviously, no scientist would miss a chance such as this... to study a recently exploded planet! What an experiance that would be. But, for the time being, most of the Cardassia system is off-limits. But, we all know Captain Meve. I could have told you that we would go back quite soon, but I never expected it to be this soon. I suppose that we do need to know if there is a planet there or not...... we will see.

 

In other news, I have enjoyed greatly my time off from "work". Of course, it was much needed. Majority of the Sky Harbor crew lost vast amounts of sleep over the past few weeks. I also saw Drankum.... he was talking about not being sad about all that was happening, but it was easy to tell otherwise. You could almost see the pain in his eyes as he gazed out the window at Starbase 405.

 

It didn't matter now. There was no turning around. We were cruising at Warp 9 point something, which was faster that I wanted to go in a Norway class ship. They are science vessels; not speed demons. It was like comparing a 20th Century Mini-van to a Mustang. Science vessels were not made with speed in mind. But, technically where we were going was going to need a large science team to figure out what the heck is going on.

 

I bid our science department good luck.

 

As we approach the Cardassian space, I am led to wonder about the Ferengi. And I think for a moment, and think of a little quote I'd have to tell Drankum or Quark about. It was more like a non-answer question. "I wonder if Ferengi's know that, in the end, you can't take money with you?". I guess not.
