Mini-Event

EVENT
One day, the Mnemosyne's sensors registers something unusual and the CL-10s light up to show a faint blip on the available short-range scans. Passive systems initially marked it as debris, but now L3TH3's own analysis reveals distinct structural patterns - artificial, deliberate. A derelict vessel.
The object hangs in the void, its silhouette jagged and uneven, as if time and space had waged a slow, corrosive war against it. Its hull is composed of a dark, matte material, absorbing most of the light from the surrounding nebula. Occasional metallic glints hinted at fractured plating, edges sharp like broken glass. It's small enough to take one, maybe two passengers. Not a ship to travel the ends of space with.
The vessel's shape is similar to a manta ray with a lattice of interwoven plates, some half-collapsed, others eerily intact. Small, irregular openings dotted its surface, their purpose unclear. Sections of the hull appeared fused, as though reshaped by intense heat or pressure. Faint scorch marks suggested prior damage, but there were no visible signs of propulsion systems or weaponry.

The Mnemosyne's scanners continue to sweep the ship, pulses of blue light rippling over its surface. The analysis returned incomplete data:
Material Composition: 47% unknown alloys, 32% organic compounds, remaining elements unidentifiable.
Power Signatures: Negligible. Residual traces of energy detected in isolated regions.
Life Signs: None detected.
Radiation Analysis: No hazardous emissions identified.
Quarantine Measures: Establishing containment procedures for potential recovery operations.
As the Mnemosyne drifts closer, external cameras capture the vessel in greater detail. The nebula's soft pink and purple hues frames the derelict ship, its battered form casting long shadows across the void. Automated proximity lights from the Mnemosyne illuminates portions of the alien craft, revealing intricate surface etchings - patterns resembling flowing script or circuitry, carved deep into the hull.
It drifts silently, its history unknown, its purpose long abandoned. Yet its presence in uncharted space raised questions that neither the Mnemosyne's crew nor its AI can yet answer.
Welcome to a little mini-event to stir things up over the Holidays! Crew can decide if they want to examine the ship further, take it into the hangar or leave it where it is.

Whoever was in it definitely didn't survive if they stayed inside.

Re: QUESTIONS
Were we supposed to post a thread starting the acquisition ourselves, or will that potentially be incorporated based upon player consensus in a future event?

[Why is Rin assuming that they're going to investigate the ship? Well. They are, aren't they? It's a weird ship in space.
They've clipped some images from the initial scans, though, and noted them as worthy of investigation - those designs, the section of the ship with enough space to serve as some kind of crew quarters, and so on.]

Do you have additional safety protocols to propose, Coordinator Wolfwood?
[Excuse you Wolfwood they didn't say they were going over. They just implied it by suggesting the protocol in the first place.]

This thing's too big a deal to not at least look at.

Operations Coordinator Wolfwood has suggested an initial drone run. I am putting together a relay system now - to share items of interest and identify points of concern. Additional in-person surveying may be required if interior scanning is not possible, due to interference from unknown alloys.

Considering how short staffed we are, I think it would be foolish to overlook something that might be of use.

We're going to want to go nuts on that decontamination protocol and quarantine if we do this.

Much as I don't love the risk, reward's too big a deal. Do we have anything that can minimize space walk time? I don't like the idea of being out in this nebula, for a pretty good god-damned reason.

[ They're out of luck on official pilots, but maybe someone else knows how to fly. Vash personally gave up driving any kind of vehicle more advanced than a bicycle long ago, so he can't help. ]
