ESS Hiawatha
Before our next orders we will use 100 credits to increase security to level 2 and 100 credits to increase engineering to level 2.
Now there is the matter of
First Responder
Head to Beta 8 with intent to aid the alien vessel.
Dr Colex will for our contact with the signals from the signals from the aliens so we can prepare to communicate. Have Dr Dube ready the medical teams for surgery. Mr Farzid will be ready to serve as our first voice to these aliens as he may provide the necessary diplomatic tact to help provide calmness.
Captain Azarola will be aware that this will be a risky mission and there is no telling if we are going not face danger, at least from the instability of the alien ship's core.
Our first focus we will to rescue the survivors. Have our core command focus on medical provisions and getting the survivors on board. Security will be used to quickly attempt to board and bring the survivors onto our vessel; Dr Dube will be in charge of catering to medical needs.To ensure that can work engineering will focus on finding a way to access the ship.
Our second focus will be to scan the area for any reasoning why the ship ended up in this state. The asteroid would suggest a all too natural reasoning but we cannot afford to come to such conclusions as nothing is as dangerous as a unknown danger.
Should danger come in form of a hostile ship try to get as many aliens as possible from the damage vessel and retreat; we cannot afford a full confrontation.
Should the danger be a more natural threat then keep eyes peeled for any stray rocks.
Should the danger be from inside the vessel, via something they carried or someone... there will be a reason why the first dispatch of security will be a small vanguard while our engines will be primed just in case.
Remember though: this is a rescue mission. If any other Earth vessel come to help then ensure they understand the priority. Co-operation will be welcomed.
Mechanic usage: 3 points of our comms focused on this mission along will our 2 meds and (to be now) 2 security. 2 engine set as a defence measure. Command to focus on the operation to help boost. 2 science will aid in diplomatic communications. Engineering to set 2 on accessing the ship. All other features will remain on passive. Officer purposes detailed in above.
