(21:30:16) ENG_LtJG_Ilaihr: ::Nods.:: CO: Aye, sir.
(21:30:21) CO_VAdmBlackthorne: ENG: A good year.

(21:52:27) NAV_Cdr_Harper: :: smiles, unable to keep herself from thinking of the Gencodian language as she waits, then the computer dings :: XO: Slipstream solution plotted.
(21:52:46) ENG_LtJG_Ilaihr: ::Taps the console, before hooking his stick on the railing.:: Self: How are you feeling my girl? Better?
(21:53:07) XO_Capt_TKirr: CTO: Shields up, Major Wolfe.

(21:55:54) MED_Ens_DrSlade: *CMO*: Sir, with your permission I would like to send the department heads the lists of departure physical appointments.
(21:56:07) NAV_Cdr_Harper: :: finds herself just as impressed as she was with the Odyssey ::
(21:57:32) ENG_LtJG_Ilaihr: ::Looks over the hull stress measurements, as well as power flow regulation, and a number of other systems that would normally change due to warp.::
(21:57:57) CO_VAdmBlackthorne: NAV: How does she fly?
(21:58:59) NAV_Cdr_Harper: CO: I am impressed, sir. The slipstream threshold transition was the easiest I have seen.
(21:59:16) SCI_LtJG_TLira: :: notes another ping on her console, checks it, confirms the sender, and files it away into a folder labelled "To Be Viewed Later" before returning to the experiment. ::

(21:59:19) XO_Capt_TKirr: :: sighs having done the duty she's so far unaccustomed to, decided it satisfactory, then returns to her reports, but distractedly ::
(22:00:35) CO_VAdmBlackthorne: :: pats the chair arm :: Attagirl.
(22:00:49) CMO_Cmdr_Kymar: ::shakes his head for a moment:: *MED*: Yes, go ahead. We've still got almost two hundred crewmen to get through, though - how're we coming along there?
(22:01:32) CSO_LCdr_Wright: XO: Captain, during our extended downtime, I performed an extensive analysis on the scans we obtained from our last visit to Gencodia and identified a few sites with exceptionally high potential, if you're interested...?
(22:02:02) XO_Capt_TKirr: :: looks up and turns :: CSO: I am.
(22:02:07) MED_Ens_DrSlade: *CMO*: I have begun the Science and Enginering stations and the bridge crew last as alwyas. They are coming along well sir, and following all of the starfleet mandated regulation physical practices
(22:03:07) CMO_Cmdr_Kymar: *MED*: Good, keep it up, Ensign. Was there anything else? ::steps off the Turbolift, walking along the corridor::
(22:03:51) MED_Ens_DrSlade: :: Types out a message on his console to the Admiral, XO, CSO, CTO, and all other Dept heads about their crewmen that who have pendidnt appointments and their appointment times as well.
(22:04:16) CO_VAdmBlackthorne: CSO: As am I, actually. That is the entire point of our return, considering the value of that enhanced sensor data we were able to get.
(22:04:38) MED_Ens_DrSlade: *CMO* No sir, that is all just wanted to send out the list to get them through so we can bee on full operating capability sir.
(22:04:47) SCI_LtJG_TLira: :: decides to multitask and has the computer run a simulation of the same experiment, but with different concentrations than those that are currently being tested. ::
(22:05:11) MED_Ens_DrSlade: :: Pushes the button and sends the list and message::

(22:08:18) ENG_LtJG_Ilaihr: NAV: Commander... Am I right in hear that you too are something of a passionate polyglot?
(22:08:25) XO_Capt_TKirr: :: notes the scan density :: CSO: Very thorough, Ms. Wright.
(22:08:48) CMO_Cmdr_Kymar: ::steps into one of the nurses stations, nodding to Claire:: *MED*: Understood, Ensign. Kymar out.
(22:09:01) NAV_Cdr_Harper: ENG: That is correct, Lieutenant.
(22:09:29) CO_VAdmBlackthorne: :: points at an area of interest in the southern hemisphere :: XO: That looks promising.
(22:09:42) CSO_LCdr_Wright: :: blushes faintly :: XO: I was very excited to play with the new enriched sensor output, Captain. And I happened to have a... little bit of free time.
(22:10:28) ENG_LtJG_Ilaihr: ::Smiles.:: NAV: I would find it most agreeable to study the Gencodian language with a skilled linguist.
(22:10:55) XO_Capt_TKirr: :: studies it a moment :: CO: Agreed.
(22:11:16) NAV_Cdr_Harper: ENG: I literally wrote the book on it, Lieutenant. It is all in the computer and the universal translator data is based on my original work.
(22:12:45) CO_VAdmBlackthorne: NAV: On approach, target a stationary orbit above that site. CSO: Send the coordinates to the helm.
(22:14:23) NAV_Cdr_Harper: CO: Aye sir. Exiting slipstream in one minute.

(22:15:25) NAV_Cdr_Harper: ENG: Please, feel free to. CO/XO: Thirty seconds.
(22:16:29) ENG_LtJG_Ilaihr: NAV: And... I must say I have made limit trade in the past to the Children of Tama... the study of their language is something of a hobby of mine.

(22:18:48) SCI_LtJG_TLira: :: notes the transition out of warp and approves. Now, to see what planet they are near so that she can study any and all scans... this experiment suddenly seems far less interesting ::
(22:19:48) NAV_Cdr_Harper: :: drops from warp as they approach the Xothos planetary system, and calculates an orbit insertion at impulse to a genostationary orbit above the site of interest ::
(22:20:25) CO_VAdmBlackthorne: ACTION> A great purple gas giant with a spectacular ring system fills the screen, looking much as it did when we were just here in the Odyssey.
(22:21:28) CSO_LCdr_Wright: :: initiates deep scans of the Site of Interest below as it comes into range ::
(22:22:03) CO_VAdmBlackthorne: ACTION> The purple comes from bands of purple clouds, offset by smaller bands of red, above an orange base layer. However, the purple dominates the reflected light.
(22:22:06) CMO_Cmdr_Kymar left the room (quit: Quit: ).
(22:23:06) SCI_LtJG_TLira: :: the planet seems to be Gencodia, which is quite familiar, unfortunately. However, reviewing the scans would be quite prudent. ::

(22:24:20) XO_Capt_TKirr: NAV: Thank you.
(22:25:06) CSO_LCdr_Wright: :: checks her messages and sees the note about the physicals, dashes off a reminder to her staff with checkups pending... frowning at her own name on the list. Why didn't they remind her when she was wandering around bored during the refit? Sigh. ::
(22:25:09) XO_Capt_TKirr: CSO: Ms. Wright, a new scan, please.
(22:25:18) NAV_Cdr_Harper: :: checks the residual readings from the slipstream, warp, and impulse drives after their first uses :::
(22:28:02) ENG_LtJG_Ilaihr: ::Keeps an eye on the systems still, impressed by how well Atlantis seems to be faring.::

(22:32:54) XO_Capt_TKirr: CSO: Gencodia has not discovered this location yet?
(22:35:26) CSO_LCdr_Wright: XO: Doubtful, Captain. It's not in their records. They don't have the sensor power to scan at this resolution, and the terrain is difficult for ground teams to navigate.
(22:36:18) XO_Capt_TKirr: CSO: I think it prudent that you should share your findings with them, then. :: checks with a look to Blackthorne ::
(22:36:43) CO_VAdmBlackthorne: XO: I'm thinking more along the lines of we check it our ourselves.
(22:37:26) XO_Capt_TKirr: CO: I did not intend to suggest we would not be the ones to investigate.
(22:38:12) CO_VAdmBlackthorne: XO: Of course not. Where would be the fun in that, eh?
(22:38:51) XO_Capt_TKirr: CO: It would be good form to at least let them know what we're doing.
(22:39:15) CO_VAdmBlackthorne: XO: Indeed. Let's share, and of course let them know we're here and give all the usual pleasantries... and then, prepare an away team.
(22:39:46) SCI_LtJG_TLira: :: sees the scans and wishes she weren't confined to ship duty, because those ruins would be absolutely fascinating to explore ::
(22:40:02) XO_Capt_TKirr: :: looks to Wright ::
(22:40:27) CSO_LCdr_Wright: XO/CO: Shall I try to find a suitable landing site, or are you thinking transporters? The terrain might make the former challenging.
(22:40:41) MED_Ens_DrSlade: *CMO* Sir the Admiral can come for his physical whenever or we could come to him. At his convenience sir.
(22:41:01) CSO_LCdr_Wright: XO/CO: And I will contact them now.
(22:41:01) MED_Ens_DrSlade: :: Making sure not to make the same mistake twice::
(22:42:01) CO_VAdmBlackthorne: CSO: Can you find the opening of the complex so that we could beam to it?
(22:42:11) ENG_LtJG_Ilaihr: ::Hand shakes slightly, but shakes it off at the prospect of exploration.::
(22:42:23) CSO_LCdr_Wright: *Gencodia* Federation Starship USS Atlantis to Gencodia base... :: introductions and pleasantries, shares site sensor data and our intentions to investigate ::
(22:43:48) CSO_LCdr_Wright: :: quite proud to be able to say the Atlantis bit again ::
(22:43:51) NAV_Cdr_Harper: :: checks herself off the physical list and sends her list of pilots down ::
(22:43:58) TAC_2LT_Randen: :: Goes to the lounge since he'll be off until 2nd shift on the bridge. He orders a synthahol and looks out the window. ::
(22:45:18) CSO_LCdr_Wright: :: scrutinizing the scans :: CO: I think I've found an entrance, Sir, but it's hard to say for sure until we get down there. :: sends him the specific coordinates ::
(22:45:40) XO_Capt_TKirr: :: notes Slade's latest report of physical appointments and stashes it away to read later ::
