21:02	CaptMcCloud:	Good evening, Eaglettes! I hope you all have had a great time off and a great holiday. Not that there was a lot in there, but have you all read the mission brief and are there any questions?
21:02	Dr_Fenway:	No questions, Captain.
21:02	Lt_Banning:	Yes and no, Sir.
21:03	**	JazzyFarrell entered the room.
21:03	LtCmdr_Hart:	Read it, no questions, Captain.
21:03	Moonshadows:	No questionsw pertinent to the game sir

21:04	CaptMcCloud:	Alrighty then! Let's get started. =/\= BEGIN SIM =/\=
21:04	JazzyFarrell:	::AA::
21:04	Moonshadows:	Tac>At her post, scanning space::
21:05	CaptMcCloud:	CO> :: sitting in the command seat.::
21:05	JazzyFarrell:	SEC>: is in her office briefing the men
21:05	Moonshadows:	TAC>[CO] Space is clear, sir... No contacts
21:05	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ TAC ] Thank you, Lt.
21:06	EnsVarelNerik:	Helm> :: at her station, making only slight correction to the navigation ::
21:06	CmdrJorel:	xo> :: on the bridge reading over the never ending stream of reports ::
21:06	Lt_Wren:	Ops> :: at her station on the bridge ::
21:06	Lt_Banning:	SCI > :: at the science console:: [ CO ] Sir, I believe we have a Class M planet on long-range, pre-warp technology.
21:07	Dr_Fenway:	AMO > :: IN sickbay, working with the ensign who has been helping with the counseling sessions::
21:08	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ SCI ] Does it look worth checking into?
21:09	Lt_Banning:	SCI >{ CO ] Initial scans show early space flight capabilities, Sir. I'd be curious to learn some more.
21:09	Moonshadows:	TAC>::Looks up, whiskers spread in grin::{SCI}Perhaps they have nuclear weapons to argue with
21:10	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ SCI ] All right then. Send the coordinates. Helm, plot a course. Let's take a look.
21:10	Lt_Banning:	SCI >[ CO ] Aye, Sir. :: sends the coordinates to helm::
21:11	Lt_Banning:	SCI >[ TAC ] There is a very good possibility, Moon.
21:12	Moonshadows:	TAC>::Runs a fast check on shields and weapons:: {CO}All tactical systems - Optimal sir.
21:14	EnsVarelNerik:	Helm >[ CO ] Aye sir :: changes course to the class m planet ::
21:14	Bot:	Ens Holung >[ AMO ] I think Crewman Jurvey needs more session time.
21:15	Dr_Fenway:	AMO >[ Holung ] :: Nods:: I totally agree. He is still losing sleep over the incident.
21:17	Lt_Banning:	SCI > :: continues his scans as they near the system:: [ CO ] Sir, I would recommend hanging on the firnge of the system, initially. I am detecting sattelites and assume they have some sensing devices looking out in space.
21:18	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ SCI ] Recommendation noted, Lt. [ HELM ] Ensign, when we approach holds us outside the system.
21:18	CmdrJorel:	xo >[ co ] this should be interesting.
21:18	LtCmdr_Hart:	CENG > :: steps onto the bridge. Smiles at Wren, then heads to the engineering console::
21:18	EnsVarelNerik:	Helm >[ CO ] Aye sir.
21:20	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ XO ] ::nods:: Yes. I've never, personally gotten vey many looks at pre-warp civilizations, other than Armand's planet, and they were already contaminated by their oppressors.
21:20	Lt_Wren:	Ops> :: scanning for comm traffic ::
21:21	Bot:	Holung >[ AMO ] ::nods:: Good. I shall schedule a few more for him. Do you wish to meet with him?
21:22	Bot:	=/\=ACTION: OPS starts to pick up broadcast channels from the planet, as well as a general "Hello is anyone out there" type message being transmitted. =/\=
21:23	Lt_Wren:	Ops >[ CO ] Captain, I'm receiving some broadcasts from the planet and a repeated message asking if anyone is out here.
21:23	Dr_Fenway:	AMO >[ Holung ] No. I think he is taking to you well enough. He always seemed dodgy when I was trying to talk with him.
21:23	Moonshadows:	TAC>[CO] No military oriented sensors, such as targeting arrays, sir
21:24	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ TAC ] Let's hope it stays that way.
21:24	Bot:	=/\=ACTION: The Eagle approaches the edge of the planetary system. =/\=
21:25	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ OPS ] Anything of particular interest, Lt. Wren?
21:25	Bot:	Holung > :: chuckles at Fenway's analogy:: [ AMO ] He likes you fine, Doctor.
21:26	Lt_Wren:	Ops >[ CO ] Scanning through it now Captain. Nothing yet.
21:26	Dr_Fenway:	AMO >[ Holung ] If you say so. What about Ensign Weaver?
21:27	EnsVarelNerik:	Helm >[ CO ] Captain, we are approaching the system.
21:27	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ OPS ] If you catch ANY inkling that they have seen us, let me know right away.
21:27	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ HELM ] slow to 1/4 impulse.
21:28	Moonshadows:	TAC>::Tail loops as she thinks of cubs dsaying "If I can't wee you, you can's see me"::
21:29	Lt_Banning:	SCI > :: Now getting a good scan of the planet::
21:29	EnsVarelNerik:	Helm >[ CO ] Slowing Captain
21:30	Bot:	=/\=ACTION: Moon's scanners detect a platform just out of planetary orbit that is LOADED with nuclear missiles. =/\=
21:31	Moonshadows:	TAC >{CO} Orbital platform, 1500 km out from the inhabited planet... Scans show MANY Nuclear tipped missiles, chemical fueled..
21:31	Bot:	Holung >[ AMO ] Weaver is another one we have to keep a watch on. She keeps saying she is fine, but I really don't think she has dealt with what she's been put through.
21:32	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ TAC ] So noted, Lieutenant.
21:33	Lt_Banning:	SCI >[ CO ] Sensors show the platform is manned, Captain. Two lifesigns aboard, and a chemical fueled shuttlecraft is docked on it.
21:35	Dr_Fenway:	AMO >[ Holung ] :: again, nods in agreement:: I believe we will be seeing more soon enough from her.
21:36	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ SCI ] Also noted, Lt. Can you get all you need from here?
21:37	Lt_Banning:	SCI >[ CO ] Honestly, Sir? I would like to see us get in closer.
21:37	Moonshadows:	TAC>::Tail corkscrews:: {CO} We could leave a note in a bottle saying we were here, sir....
21:38	CmdrJorel:	xo >[ co ] we could use submode to get closer.
21:38	CaptMcCloud:	CO > :: chuckles:: [ TAC ] We just might do that, Lieutenant.
21:39	CaptMcCloud:	CO > :: considers the XO's suggestion:: [ OPS ] Lt. Wren! Spin up the sub-mode. Make us something inconspicuous.
21:40	Moonshadows:	TAC>::Does NOT suggest the Goodyear blimp::
21:41	CaptMcCloud:	(Not many would even KNOW what that is, Moon)
21:42	Lt_Wren:	Ops >[ CO ] Aye sir. :: pulls up an astroid ::
21:43	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ SCI ] Mr. Banning? Do we have any idea just how far they can see out into space?
21:45	Lt_Banning:	SCI >[ CO ] Judging by the sensing equipment, the only real-time images they have end at around the fifth planet's orbital pattern, Sir. From there beyond, the images they receive are already an hour old.
21:45	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ SCI ] See if you can get us an approach that they won't see until we are on top of them.
21:46	Moonshadows:	TAC>[CO] We need a disc shaped shuttle...
21:46	Lt_Banning:	SCI >[ CO ] Aye, Sir. Stand by. :: taps on his console, studying the monitor for a moment, then taps in a few commands:: Send the approach route to helm now, Sir.
21:48	Bot:	=/\=ACTION: Wren's listening of the broadcasts has a minor report of another shuttle launch to the platform to relieve the astronauts that are currently aboard. =/\=
21:48	EnsVarelNerik:	Helm >[ CO ] Route recieved, plugging it in now.
21:48	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ HELM ] Proceed and half impulse, Ensign.
21:48	Lt_Wren:	Ops >[ CO ] Captain, they are launching another shuttle Captain.
21:49	Moonshadows:	TAC>[CO] Detecting launch, small craft, surface of the planet...
21:49	CaptMcCloud:	(You were supposed to wait on that one, Moon, but we'll go with it)
21:49	EnsVarelNerik:	Helm >[ CO ] Aye sir. 1/4 impulse.
21:50	Lt_Wren:	Ops >[ CO ] I've calculated, the message is a day old Captain.
21:51	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ SCI ] Mr. Banning. If we have any visual on the launch, please put it onscreen.
21:51	CaptMcCloud:	CO > ::nods in acknowledgement of Wren's report.::
21:52	Lt_Banning:	SCI >[ CO } Aye, Sir. I do have good imaging on it.
21:53	Bot:	=/\=ACTION: The image of a fairly modern shuttle making its way through the atmospheric levels. Moon's sensors suddenly detect a missile launch from elsewhere on the surface of the planet. =/\=
21:54	CaptMcCloud:	CO > :: watches the image os the shuttle:: [ XO ] Now this is cool.
21:54	Moonshadows:	TAC>[CO] Missile launch, from surface... fast mover! Tracking!
21:55	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ TAC ] What type of missile, Lt?
21:55	CmdrJorel:	xo >[ co ] Yes Captain.
21:55	Moonshadows:	TAC>[CO]Scanning.... Chemical reaction engines... It seems to be emitting RADAR beams... Evaluate as weapoin!
21:55	LtCmdr_Hart:	CENG > :: turns and looks at the shutttle appreciating the design::
21:56	CaptMcCloud:	CO >[ TAC ] Where is it headed?
21:56	Moonshadows:	TAC>[CO] Climbing, fast, seems to be tracking the shuttle... They are in trouble sir
21:57	CaptMcCloud:	CO > :: sits forward slightly in his seat, his first instinct is to see if they can lock onto the astronauts in the shuttle and beam them out.::
21:58	CmdrJorel:	xo> :: watches, wishing they could help ::
21:59	Bot:	=/\=ACTION: The missile clears the planet's atmosphere just after the shuttle. It's systems lock onto the shuttle and within seconds it impacts and completely destroys the craft. =/\=
21:59	Moonshadows:	TAC>{CO} ::Unnecessarily:: SHuttle destroyed
21:59	CaptMcCloud:	CO > :: eyes open wide as he watches the explosion, imagining the sound it would make, were it not conducted in the vacuum of space.
22:00	Lt_Banning:	SCI > :: also looks on totally shocked::

21:01 EnsVarelNerik: ::AA::

21:01 ** JazzyFarrell entered the room.

21:02 Moonshadows: ((::AA::) Jazzy))

21:02 CaptMcCloud: Good evening, Crew. Good to see you all, and I hope you're having a good week.
Has everyone read the brief and are there any questions?

21:02 Lt_Banning: Yes and no, Sir.

21:02 Moonshadows: Brief read, no questions sir

21:03 Dr_Fenway: Read the brief, no questions, Captain.

21:03 EnsVarelNerik: read, no questions

21:03 LtCmdr_Hart: No questions, Captain.

21:03 JazzyFarrell: Read it.

21:04 CaptMcCloud: Okay then, let's...
=/\= BEGIN SIM =/\=

21:04 CaptMcCloud: CO > :: on the bridge at his seat::

21:04 Lt_Banning: SCI >:: at the science console::

21:05 Dr_Fenway: AMO > :: In sickbay::

21:05 Moonshadows: TAC>::SHe is scanning the area as far as she can see::

21:06 CmdrJorel: xo> ::shakes head:: Why do I get the feeling this is going to mean war and we can't do anything to stop it?

21:06 Moonshadows: TAC>::Looks up at the CO, satys nothing, humanoids will be humanoids::

21:06 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ SCI ] Anything new to report, Mr. Banning?

21:06 Lt_Wren: Ops> :: at her station, keeping a close watch on submode ::

21:07 EnsVarelNerik: Helm> :: at the helm station::

21:08 Lt_Banning: SCI >[ CO ] I have detected a second shuttle being prepared for launch, Sir.

21:09 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ SCI ] Have we had any luck finding where the missile was launched from?

21:10 Lt_Banning: SCI >[ CO ] The best we have come up with is the far souther hemisphere of the other side of the planet.

21:10 JazzyFarrell: SEC>: on Patrol with her men.

21:11 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ OPS ] Lt. Wren? Have we had any luck listening in on their comms? Could the other natioin have launched?

21:11 Moonshadows: TAC>::As it becomes detectable, she locks on to the new shuttle::

21:12 LtCmdr_Hart: CENG > :: at the engineering console, moves over to the railing, looking down at the command area::

21:13 Lt_Wren: Ops >[ CO ] Nothing of real note Captain. Both sides are saying they don't know who fired the Missals. They both thing the other side is responsible.

21:15 LtCmdr_Hart: CENG >[ CO ] Captain? IF this escalates, are we seriously going to sit here and watch a world annhilate itself?

21:16 CaptMcCloud: CO > :: Sighs:: [ NOIP ] Do we have a choice?

21:16 Moonshadows: TAC>{CENG] We cannot violate the prime directive... ::Tail Loops:: We are not James Tiberius Kirk to Enterprise...

21:16 LtCmdr_Hart: CENG >[ CO ] Damn right we do. We can stop it.

21:17 LtCmdr_Hart: CENG >[ TAC ] :: Turns to Moon:: So you're willing to watch all those innocent people die?

21:18 Moonshadows: TAC>::Thumps deck with tail::[CENG] I am not sure what we can do about it.... I cannot shoot down saturation missile lauches.

21:18 CmdrJorel: xo >[ ceng ] We don't have a choice Commander. We cannot interfere.

21:19 CmdrJorel: xo >[ ceng ] I agree with you in principle and it sucks that we have to let those people die.

21:19 LtCmdr_Hart: CENG >[ NOIP ] ::his voice getting louder:: Then we should leave this system before they do it, because you KNOW it's going to happen.

21:21 CmdrJorel: xo >[ ceng ] I would prefer to leave the system as well.

21:21 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ NOIP ] Maybe calmer minds will find a better way.

21:22 Moonshadows: TAC>[CO] I will stay to record and observe, if you wish, sir... I can take out a shuttle while the ship leaves

21:23 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ TAC ] That will not be necessary, Moon. We stay. :: his eyes are fixed on the screen, trying to think of a way to help::

21:24 CmdrJorel: xo >[ co ] I hope calmer minds prevail Captain.

21:24 Bot: =/\=ACTION: Moon's sensor detect a missile launch from the planet again. =/\=

21:26 Moonshadows: TAC>[CO] Launche detected... Same source. Not in phaser range, but ... I CAN hit it with a torpedo. That would give them something to think about

21:26 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ TAC ] What is its target?

21:27 Bot: =/\=ACTION: OPS starts to hear massive comms back and forth as the planetary powers also detect the missile. =/\=

21:27 Moonshadows: TAC>::Checks::[CO] Projecting course.... Anti vessel missile, ground to space. Tracking shuttle, impacgt, two minutes

21:27 CaptMcCloud: (The shuttle hasn't been launched yet)

21:28 Lt_Wren: Ops >[ CO ] Captain, there is a large uptake in comms. They are talking back and forth after spotting this latest missile launch.

21:28 Bot: =/\=ACTION: Moon's calculations project that the space platform itself is targeted. =/\=

21:29 Moonshadows: TAC>{CO} Course correction! Missile is not tracking the platform. Impact, four minute 28 seconds

21:30 Lt_Banning: SCI >[ NOIP ] It it hits that platform, with all those warheads on it... :: just shakes his head::

21:30 Moonshadows: TAC>::Locks her torpedo on the missile, gets a green light:: Locked on m issile

21:30 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ TAC ] can we stop that missile? Send it off course or something?

21:30 LtCmdr_Hart: CENG > :: Looks surprised as he listens::

21:31 CmdrJorel: xo >[ co ] Captain, that would violate the prime directive.

21:31 Bot: =/\=ACTION: The platform itself, now has "eyes" on the missile headed for them, and they are screaming out for help. =/\=

21:31 Moonshadows: TAC>[CO] I cannot hit it with tractors, or phasers. Three minbutesw, 43 seconds to impact

21:32 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ TAC ] What is it using for targeting?

21:33 Lt_Banning: SCI > :: Puts an image of the missile on the screen::

21:33 Moonshadows: TAC>::Scans up and down the bands::[CO] Prinmitive RADAR sir... augmenting programmed flight computer

21:34 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ TAC ] Can it be fooled by a probe?

21:35 Moonshadows: TAC>{CO} I can try sir, we're cutting it fine!

21:35 Moonshadows: TAC>[CO] TWO MINUTES, 30

21:36 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ TAC ] DO IT! Do int now!

21:36 Moonshadows: TAC>::Does not wait, programs a probe to inetrcept::

21:37 Bot: =/\=ACTION: The probe streaks away from the Eagle. It takes a moment but the missile does lock onto the probe and destroys that instead of the station. =/\=

21:38 LtCmdr_Hart: CENG > :: fist pumps:: YES

21:38 Moonshadows: TAC>[CO] Missile, destroyed sir. PErhaps I chould beam down and be an angry goddess? ::Tail loops tightly::

21:39 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ TAC ] No, Lieutenant. No angry goddesses.

21:40 CaptMcCloud: CO > :: stands and paces in front of the command seats::

21:41 Bot: =/\=ACTION: Comms are again filled. Some with words of relief, others trying to determine just what happened, others still looking for someone to blame. =/\=

21:42 CaptMcCloud: CO > :: glances to the XO::

21:42 Lt_Wren: Ops >[ CO ] More comm traffic captain, mixture of things from relief to blame.

21:42 CmdrJorel: xo >[ co ] :: frowns, but keeps mouth shut ::

21:42 Lt_Banning: SCI > :: trying to pinpoint the origin of the missile::

21:42 Moonshadows: TAC>{CO} Their instruments could not have detected anything as small as the probe, or it's drive, sir.

21:43 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ XO ] Go ahead, say it, XO. I know you want to.

21:44 CmdrJorel: xo >[ co ] No point in saying it now Captain. I already expressed my views.

21:45 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ XO ] Right you are. [ SCI/OPS ] I want answers, people. I violated the Prime Directive, I want to know it was for a good reason. I'm of the opinion a third source is trying to force the hands of the major powers.

21:46 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ XO ] Come with me. [ CENG ] Tom, you have the bridge.

21:47 Lt_Banning: SCI >[ CO ] Aye, sir.

21:47 CmdrJorel: xo >[ co ] Aye sir. :: stands and follows the CO ::

21:47 CaptMcCloud: CO > :: turns and heads for the ready room::

21:47 LtCmdr_Hart: CENG > :: Moves down to the command area::

21:48 EnsVarelNerik: Helm> :: glances to the XO And CO ::

21:48 CaptMcCloud: CO > :: enters the ready room and moves to the replicator, orders a Terran coffee::

21:48 ** AlanGrant entered the room.
AlanGrant left the room.

21:49 CaptMcCloud: (Greetings, Mr. Grant. Welcome to the Eagle sim)
(Nevermind)

21:49 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ XO ] Something to drink?

21:50 Lt_Banning: SCI >:: is talking back and forth with the sensor pod thru the comm, trying to pinpoint the exact launch location::

21:51 Lt_Wren: Ops> :: looks at Tom as he takes the big chair, scans for Comms, both the frequencies the planet uses and others::

21:51 CmdrJorel: xo >[ co ] no thank you Captain.

21:52 LtCmdr_Hart: CENG >[ SCI ] Troy? Is there any chance one of the two main powers down there can pinpoint the launch location?

21:53 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ XO ] Soooo.... I opened Pandora's box. In a sense.... You ready to relieve me of command?

21:53 Moonshadows: TAC>[CENG] If you move us in closer, I can use the phase weapons...

21:54 Lt_Banning: SCI >[ CENG ] They are trying, Commander. In fact, we are getting signals from a sattelite they have in motion right now.

21:54 LtCmdr_Hart: CENG >[ TAC ] We aren't going any closer without authorization.

21:55 CmdrJorel: xo >[ co ] :: raises an eyebrow :: No. While I disagree with your order, and Starfleet HQ might take a dim view on what just happened depending on what we find, I do not believe your actions yet meet any sort of criteria to removing you from command sir.

21:57 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ XO ] What just happened to that missile could easily be blamed on a malfunction. I'm sure whoever launched it is scratching their head right now.

21:57 CmdrJorel: xo >[ co ] It very well could Captain. It's still a violation of the prime directive of noninterference.

21:58 LtCmdr_Hart: CENG >[ SCI ] what about the second shuttle launch?

21:58 Lt_Banning: SCI >[ CENG ] I still show it on the pad, ready to go, Sir. If they scrubbed its launch, Hailey will know before me.

21:59 CmdrJorel: xo >[ co ] and while I'm glad those lives were spared, we cannot go around "playing god" without good reason.

22:00 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ XO ] And I'd sure like to say that I'm sorry I violated it, but guess what... I'd do it again. Those astronauts on the p;atform didn't stand a chance.

22:00 Lt_Wren: Ops >[ CEng ] I've got my hears open for any mention of the launch.

22:01 LtCmdr_Hart: CENG > :: nods to Hailey::

22:01 CmdrJorel: xo >[ co ] No sir, they didn't.

21:01 Moonshadows: ::AA::

21:01 LtCdr_Hart: ::AA::

21:02 CaptMcCloud: Good evening crew. Good to see you on this, our last sim of 2014. I hope your week is shaping up well.
Have you all read the mission brief and are there any questions?

21:02 LtCdr_Hart: No questions, Captain.

21:02 Dr_Fenway: No questions, Captain.

21:03 JazzyFarrell: No questions

21:03 Lt_Banning: Yes and no, Sir.

21:03 CaptMcCloud: Very good, then let's...
=/\= BEGIN SIM =/\=

21:04 CaptMcCloud: CO> :: steps out of his ready room onto the bridge:: Stations report, and I hope we have something TO report.

21:04 Moonshadows: TAC>::She is watching for further launches::

21:05 JazzyFarrell: SEC Security is green,. All is quiet.

21:05 Moonshadows: TAC>[CO] Watching for launches, not able to track previous misslies sir

21:05 Lt_Banning: SCI >[ CO ] :: frowns:: Well, Sir, regretfully... :: suddenly hears his console beep::

21:06 Dr_Fenway: AMO > :: Steps onto the bridge::

21:06 LtCdr_Hart: CENG >:: sitting in the command seat, stands up::

21:07 CaptMcCloud: CO > :: nods to TAC, then glances to SCI ::

21:08 Lt_Banning: SCI > :: taps on the console, trying to get a clarification:: Sir, we have a bit of an anomaly on the surface, in the Western Souther hemisphere.

21:08 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ SCI ] I'm all ears, Mr. Banning. Let's take a look. :: glances to the main viewer::

21:09 LtCdr_Hart: CENG > :: looks to the view screen as well::

21:09 Lt_Banning: SCI > :: transfers the image to the main viewscreen::

21:10 Bot: =/\=ACTION: The viewscreen shows an area on the southern hemisphere that does not look particularly suspicious. =/\=

21:10 LtCdr_Hart: CENG >[ SCI ] I'll admit to being baffled, Troy. What are we looking at?

21:12 Lt_Banning: SCI >[ ALL ] That is a satellite image of the area. One of the Eastern Hemisphere's spy satellites.

21:13 Lt_Banning: SCI > :: taps the console again, The screen splis, showing the same image with a blank spot where a grove of trees was on the first image::

21:13 Lt_Banning: SCI >[ ALL ] This is a scan we just performed with the enhanced sensor grid.

21:14 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ SCI ] A cloaking device?

21:15 Moonshadows: TAC>::She turns her scanners to the area::[CO] A lot of finished metal in those coordinates, sir...

21:16 Lt_Banning: SCI >[ CO ] Rudimentary, but yes. Essentially a sensor cloaking field, which is also transmitting on override image to any sattelite that passes overhead.

21:17 Bot: =/\=ACTION: TAC and SCI scanners also detect a faint power signature that would indicate a more advanced generator than previously sensed on the planet. =/\=

21:18 Moonshadows: TAC>::She feeds her readings to SCI:: [CO] Power source, on the surface... Fairly advanced...

21:18 Lt_Banning: SCI >[ CO ] There also seems to be a more advanced power source in that area, Sir. Mostly masked, but its there.

21:19 Lt_Banning: SCI > :: glances over in Moon's direction:: [ ALL ] What she said.

21:19 Moonshadows: TAC> ::Tail Loops:: [SCI] Cat like reflexes?

21:20 LtCdr_Hart: CENG > :: Moves over to Banning's console to look at the reading:: [ CO ] A signature very similar to a warp core, Captain.

21:20 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ SCI ] You did say this was a pre-warp society.

21:21 Dr_Fenway: AMO > :: Moves down to the counselor's seat, fascinated by all this::

21:22 Lt_Banning: SCI >[ CO ] I did, Sir, and still maintain such. Those shuttles they use are in no way warp shuttles, or close, Sir.

21:23 CaptMcCloud: CO > ::Stands, looking at the screen. Moves about the bridge, thinking this over:: [ NOIP ] A more advanced civilization? Trying to manipulate this one?

21:24 Moonshadows: TAC>[SCI] Scan space for warp fuel residue trails?

21:24 LtCdr_Hart: CENG >[ CO ] That sounds plausible, Sir, but what would they gain by having this planet's people destroy themselves?

21:26 Moonshadows: TAC>[CENG] Real estate, slaves...

21:26 Lt_Banning: SCI >[ TAC ] Yes. Lt. Simmons has just done so with this discovery. Nothing.

21:27 LtCdr_Hart: CENG >[ TAC ] Real estate sounds more the idea, Moon. More specifically, what's under the surface. IF they self-destructed with a nuclear holocaust, that would pretty much wipe out the population and suface of the planet.

21:28 Lt_Banning: SCI >[ ALL ] But the planet is RICH in natural resources underneath.

21:28 Moonshadows: TAC>[SCI] Youhave the fine scanners... what are the chances someone down there discovered the technology recently?

21:29 Moonshadows: TAC>::She starts scanning the periphery of the system, moons and such::

21:29 Lt_Banning: SCI >[ TAC ] That is always a SLIM possibility, but we would need to get down there to find that out for sure. To scan the facility and see if it is alien species inhabiting there.

21:30 Moonshadows: TAC>::Tail corkscrews::[CO} I volunteer to beam down, in the guise of an irate goddess, sir?

21:31 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ SCI ] Can we get the Falcon in there without being seen?

21:31 LtCdr_Hart: CENG > :: Laughs:: [ TAC ] You're not giving up that goddess idea, are you?

21:32 Moonshadows: TAC>[CENG] It sounds like fun, if one is not burned at the stake...

21:33 Lt_Banning: SCI >[ CO ] With careful useage of the sub-mode, we could slip into the atmosphere. That is, for the technology native to the planet, but we don't know what is under that cloaking field.

21:34 LtCdr_Hart: CENG > :: wrinkles his nose at the thought of Moon being burned at the stake:: [ TAC ] Burning fur.... :: shakes his head:: Nix the goddess idea.

21:35 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ CENG/TAC ] You two done? Can we be serious here?

21:35 LtCdr_Hart: CENG >[ CO ] Of course, Sir. Apologies.

21:35 Moonshadows: TAC>::Tail loops tighter, she points to the left:: SIrius is that way, sir... I will subside.

21:36 CaptMcCloud: CO >[ ALL ] I say let's take our chances. Tom, prepare an away team. Take the Falcon down and get as close as you can. If there is ANY indication the native populace has seen you, get the heck out of there.

21:37 LtCdr_Hart: CENG >[ CO ] Aye, Sir. [ SCI/TAC ] Troy, Moon. You're with me. Moon. Contact that new ensign in security have her meet us in the shuttle bay.

21:38 Lt_Banning: SCI > :: taps out of the console:: [ CENG ] Aye, Sir.

21:38 Moonshadows: TAC>[CENG] Aye... +SEC+ Moonshsdows to Farrel, report to hangar bay for away team duty, covert!

21:39 Dr_Fenway: AMO > :: kind of wishes there would have been some reason to take along a med team::

21:39 LtCdr_Hart: CENG > :: heads to the lift, after notifying the shuttle bay to rady the Falcon::

21:40 Lt_Banning: SCI > :: steps into the lift::

21:40 Moonshadows: TAC>::She turns her board over, heads for the4 hangar deck::

21:41 CaptMcCloud: (For expediency sake, I'm jumping you guys ahead)

21:42 Moonshadows: ((Jazzy IM me!))

21:42 Bot: =/\=ACTION: The team gathers and boards the Falcon. Quickly enough the Delta Flyer-class shuttle approaches the planet. =/\=

21:43 LtCdr_Hart: @ CENG > :: At helm:: [ SCI ] How we doing with the sensors, Troy?

21:44 Lt_Banning: @ SCI >[ CENG ] So far, so good, sir. While not as good as a cloaking device, I am managing to fool the radar from both the planet and the defense platform.

21:45 Moonshadows: TAC>[CENG] No space traffic....

21:45 LtCdr_Hart: @ CENG >[ SCI ] Keep up the good work. Angling down for atmospheric entry.

21:45 JazzyFarrell: (Sec>: Reports to the hanger Bay.

21:46 Lt_Banning: SCI >[ CENG ] Our heat trail can be attributed to normal meteorits entering the atmosphere. At least that is what the radar sees.

21:46 LtCdr_Hart: (Little late, Jazzy, you're already aboard the shuttle)

21:47 JazzyFarrell: ((OOkay))

21:48 Bot: =/\=@ ACTION: The Falcon easily enters the atomsphere. Planetary comms report of the meteors that SHOULD burn up in the atmosphere. =/\=

21:48 Moonshadows: TAC>[CENG] Notactical sensors detected... only RADAR...

21:48 LtCdr_Hart: @ CENG >[ SCI ] Okay, we're in, Troy. Heading for the coordinates.

21:49 LtCdr_Hart: @ CENG >[ TAC ] Excellent, Moon. Just what I like to hear.

21:49 Lt_Banning: @ SCI > :: Scans for "local" traffic, and the area they are headed to.::

21:50 Moonshadows: @TAC>[CENG] Air craft deteted, 150 km... Shoujld not see us...

21:50 Bot: =/\=@ ACTION: A "local" jet comes up on sensors, headed toward the Falcon. =/\=

21:51 Moonshadows: @TAC>{CENG} Aircraft launch! Ten KM out, closing rapidly! Turbine craft!

21:51 Lt_Banning: @ SCI >[ CENG ] Got one coming at us, Commander.

21:53 LtCdr_Hart: @ CENG >[ SCI/TAC ] Thank you two. I see it. Taking evasive now. :: deftly takes the shuttle higher to avoid being seen::

21:53 Bot: =/\=@ ACTION: The jet continues on its course without having seen the shuttle. =/\=

21:54 Moonshadows: TAC>[CENG] Bearing... Range... Opening... we are clear

21:54 LtCdr_Hart: @ CENG >[ NOIP ] One bogie avoided. Any others on scanners?

21:54 Moonshadows: @TAC>[CENG] ::Assumes a voice, pulls at one ear:: Here's... Looking at you, Kid!

21:55 Moonshadows: @TAC>[CENG] No wingman, sir...

21:55 Lt_Banning: @ SCI > :: Concentrates his scanners on the base, knowing Moon is watching for other aircraft::

21:55 LtCdr_Hart: @ CENG >[ SCI ] We're getting close, Troy. What can you tell me?

21:57 Lt_Banning: @ SCI >[ CENG ] I'm definitley scanning non-humanoid life signs in the base, Sir. They have quite a facility set up. A power core very similiar to the Eagle's warp core.

21:58 LtCdr_Hart: @ CENG >[ ALL ] That's what I needed to hear. Getting ready to set her down. LEt me know if we get scanned, cause then we'll know the jig is up.

21:58 Moonshadows: @TAC>[CENG] Watching...

21:59 Lt_Banning: @ SCI >[ CENG ] So far, I'm not seeing any advanced sensing technology. They have plenty of radar dishes pointed in all directions, but no more advanced than that.

22:00 LtCdr_Hart: @ CENG >[ ALL ] Okay, here we go then. :: sets the Falcon down in a remote area where it can be hidden by narural borders and foliage.
