CO_Cmdr_Shemara_Arca says:
::sitting in the big chair pondering::
CSO_Sojyngra says:
::at the bridge science station, looking at sensor readings::
CEO_McPhee says:
::standing at the engineering station on the bridge::
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
::on the bridge at the helm::
CO_Cmdr_Shemara_Arca says:
XO: Number one this planet you say comes and goes at will?
CNS_Chandra says:
::Working in sickbay::
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
::At TAC 1 reading the results of the last 3 drills and the last diagnostic::
XO_Stidd says:
CO: That is not what I said.  What I said is that on one Stardate it was not there, on the following Stardate it was there.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
::listens to the conversation between the CO and XO so she will be prepared::
CSO_Sojyngra says:
::finds the captain's statement odd: planets do not have a will::
CSO_Sojyngra says:
::does not bother to butt-in just to correct her::
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
<TO_Blake> ::enters sickbay, looks around::
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
<TO_Blake> ::Is paler than usual::
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
<TO_Blake> ::Sees Chandra and moves towards him:: CNS: Are you filling in for the doc?
CNS_Chandra says:
::Doing a spot check on the medical supplies::
CEO_McPhee says:
::begins going over the systems diagnostic checks::
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CEO: Everything in working order, Jonathan?
CEO_McPhee says:
FCO: Yes, ma'am everything seems to check out.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CEO: Good, because I never know when I'm going to need more power to the engines.
CO_Cmdr_Shemara_Arca says:
XO: Basically that is what you said on one Stardate it was here and the next gone.
Host Susan says:
ACTION: The planet in question is now detectable on the fringe of long-range sensors.
CNS_Chandra says:
TO: Yes I am, please state the nature of the medical emergency.
XO_Stidd says:
CO: Your statement implies that it has been here before and there is nothing to support that in the data.  It also supposes that it can disappear again and that is also unfounded at this time.
CTO_Cmdr_Fowler says:
<TO_Blake> CNS: I think I'm sick............*  ::moves two steps and falls to the floor::
CSO_Sojyngra says:
::tries to scan ahead, but doesn't have enough detail on the planet to search for what she really wants to know::
CNS_Chandra says:
::Watches the TO fall:: Self: Well I bet that hurt.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CSO: Finding anything on sensors for me to aim at to orbit?
CNS_Chandra says:
Self: I hope it's not contagious.
CNS_Chandra says:
MO: Please get that patient to a bed.
CEO_McPhee says:
::keeps an eye on systems and the engines as they near the planet::
CNS_Chandra says:
<MO>: Aye sir. ::Moves the TO to a biobed::
CNS_Chandra says:
::Doing a scan of the TO::
CSO_Sojyngra says:
FCO: Yes, sir. It's on the edge of the long-range sensors.
CO_Cmdr_Shemara_Arca says:
XO: Number One you said in my ready room that on such and such a Stardate the planet was there and on the next star date it was not there.  Do you deny that?
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CSO: Good, now I have someplace to shoot for. ::hopes the CTO doesn't think she means literally::
CNS_Chandra says:
MO: Start giving this man some liquids and see if you can find out what he ate that gave him his food poisoning.
XO_Stidd says:
CO: Yes.  I said that on Stardate 10701.22 the planet was not there.  Then on Stardate 10701.23 it was there.
CSO_Sojyngra says:
FCO/All: There's a debris field between is and the planet ahead. Based on these readings, I would say it's from something that's been destroyed recently.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
::sets the course for the planet::
CO_Cmdr_Shemara_Arca says:
XO: OK so in that sense it was here one day and gone the next.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CSO: Like maybe the planet?
CO_Cmdr_Shemara_Arca says:
::hears the CSO::
CSO_Sojyngra says:
FCO: It's too close. I'm analyzing the composition now.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CSO: Acknowledged.
CNS_Chandra says:
::Start the TO on a re-hydration treatment::
CO_Cmdr_Shemara_Arca says:
XO: OK Number One why do you suppose logically it would be there on SD 10701.22 and on SD 10701.23 it is gone?
CSO_Sojyngra says:
FCO/All: It does have some of the same compounds as the planet: rock, organic materials, and magma. It could have been a planetary body.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CSO: Like a moon or something?
CSO_Sojyngra says:
FCO: This is pretty large and may have been either class L or class M before it was destroyed.
CEO_McPhee says:
::is listening to the Captain and XO conversation:: CO/XO: Sirs, if you don't mind me saying. Maybe the planet was destroyed.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CSO: Okay.
CSO_Sojyngra says:
FCO: A large moon, class L according to the star charts.
XO_Stidd says:
::Shakes his head slightly at the Klingon will to refuse to be wrong:: CO: On SD 10701.22 it was gone, non-existent and on SD 10701.23 it was there as in present.  Now, as for how that might happen I have no plausible explanation at the present time.  I need more data to formulate a hypothesis.
CEO_McPhee says:
CSO: What is the debris made up of?
Host Susan says:
ACTION: The re-hydrating formulas begin working on the TO.
CO_Cmdr_Shemara_Arca says:
::shakes her own head:: XO: I stand corrected Number One.
CNS_Chandra says:
::Goes to the computer:: Computer: Computer research if TO Blake used the replicators in the past twenty-four hours and if he did supply me a list of what he replicated.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CSO: That will still be a mess to fly through. ::shakes head::
CSO_Sojyngra says:
CEO: Mostly rock, organic materials, heavy metal and magma from the core ::pauses:: I'll transfer a copy of the readouts to your station.
CSO_Sojyngra says:
FCO: :half-smiles:: With all due respect, that's your problem. I just scan it.
XO_Stidd says:
CSO: Approximate timeline of the destruction?
CEO_McPhee says:
CSO: Thank you.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CSO: I know, Sojyngra, I know.  ::chuckles::
CEO_McPhee says:
FCO: Don't worry sweetheart, I know you can do it.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CEO: Thanks, Honey.
CEO_McPhee says:
::gives his wife a big, warm smile::
CO_Cmdr_Shemara_Arca says:
CSO: Have you found any residual traces of weapons fire?
CNS_Chandra says:
*XO*: Sir, we have a case of food poisoning in sickbay. I am trying to locate the cause right now.
CSO_Sojyngra says:
FCO: ::smirking a bit:: /// ::an alert blinks on her station:: ::she had set it to inform her when they were close enough to scan for tachyon or tetryon emissions, chroniton fields, or any signs of temporal or subspace anomalies in the area of the planet:: ::she disregards it for the moment, focusing on the debris::
Host Susan says:
<Computer> CNS: TO Blake used the replicator at 1230 Hours, 0700 hours, 0030 hours, 1800 Hours & 1245 Hours during the last 24 hour period. He replicated meals consisting of chicken, beef, salmon, duck, pork sausage, carrots, broccoli, potatoes both fried and mashed, salad, fruit cocktail and whole-wheat rolls.
XO_Stidd says:
*CNS*: Understood report back if you find anything.
CSO_Sojyngra says:
XO: No, sir. However, based on the exposure to space, a comparison of the rate at which the debris is drifting and it's current disbursement, and a few other factors, I would estimate that this moon was destroyed approximately four weeks ago, give or take a couple of days.
CO_Cmdr_Shemara_Arca says:
XO: Anything serious?
XO_Stidd says:
CO: The counselor is treating a TO Blake for food poisoning.  They do not have a source pinned down yet.
CSO_Sojyngra says:
::does a more detailed scan for any damage that could have been caused by a weapon, even though any energy signatures would have decayed::
CO_Cmdr_Shemara_Arca says:
CSO: Based on the expanse of the debris field can you extrapolate its size?  Could it have been a moon or other planetary body closely related to this planet?
CNS_Chandra says:
Computer: Have you detected any non-replicated food sources brought onboard in the last 30 days?
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
::continues flying toward the debris field::
CSO_Sojyngra says:
CO: Yes, it was a large class L moon, based on the readings and the star charts. I've also continued looking for signs of weapons fire. I didn't find any burn patterns or anything about the breakage or placement that would suggest that.
Host Susan says:
<Computer> CNS: No non-replicated food sources have been brought aboard within the allotted time period.
CNS_Chandra says:
::Does a scan of the TO's stomach contents::
CO_Cmdr_Shemara_Arca says:
CSO: OK how about the theory of an asteroid or comet hitting the moon?
XO_Stidd says:
::Turns his screen and begins entering data and running programs::
CEO_McPhee says:
*CNS*: I'm going to run a ship wide scan of the replicators to try and see if the replicators are malfunctioning.
Host Susan says:
ACTION: Aide stations on all levels begin reporting food poisoning cases.
CNS_Chandra says:
*XO*: It would appear that the TO has ingested contaminated beef along with other toxins. I suggest a complete diagnostic be run on the replicator systems at once, sir.
CO_Cmdr_Shemara_Arca says:
CEO: Shut down the replicators.
XO_Stidd says:
*CNS*: Agreed.
CEO_McPhee says:
CO: Doing that now, sir.
CEO_McPhee says:
::begins shutting down all replicators on the ship::
XO_Stidd says:
:: Notes that the CO ordered the replicators taken off line and does not follow up any further.::
CSO_Sojyngra says:
CO: ::hates it when the captain misuses the word "theory," when she means hypothesis:: I'll analyze the debris pattern a bit more to see if there seems to be one impact point or not.
CO_Cmdr_Shemara_Arca says:
CEO: Good then run a manual check on them.  Find out what happened and take a security team with you.  Report anything directly to the XO or myself.
CEO_McPhee says:
CO: Aye, sir. ::points to two TO’s to signal for them to follow him, and heads for the turbo lift.::
CO_Cmdr_Shemara_Arca says:
XO: I know what you are thinking Number One.  I have followed on my actions.  ::smiles::
CEO_McPhee says:
::enters the turbo lift with the two tactical officers.:: TL: Main Engineering.
XO_Stidd says:
CO: I was prepared to do the same thing.  Since you took care of it, there is no need for me to act as well.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
::thinking out loud:: Self: There goes dinner!
CEO_McPhee says:
::exits the turbo lift and enters main engineering. begins running scans of ship to find the problem::
CNS_Chandra says:
::Begins the process of emptying the TO's stomach::
XO_Stidd says:
CSO: I am finding traces of what might be a rather large meteor shower through here.  Can you confirm my findings, please.
CSO_Sojyngra says:
XO: It is a plausible hypothesis. I may have more in just a moment.
CEO_McPhee says:
EO_Smith: Smith begin scanning officers quarters. I'll start with the lounge.
CNS_Chandra says:
::Watches the contents, such as half digested beef, corn potatoes and the like, drain from the TO's stomach::
Host Susan says:
<EO Toyan> *Sickbay*: Medical emergency in engineering, Petty Officer Perkins just collapsed, she's been ill much of the morning...now it doesn't look like she's breathing.
CSO_Sojyngra says:
XO: So far, the only craters I see, like the one on the planet's second moon, appear to be caused by the debris from the larger moon.
CEO_McPhee says:
::notices officer Perkins, runs over to her:: Perkins: Are you alright?
CO_Cmdr_Shemara_Arca says:
XO: Could that be attributed to a shift in the planets gravity field?
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
::listens to what is going on, though just trying to stay on course::
XO_Stidd says:
CO: It is possible, if this planet was moved here from another location then the change in the gravity field could alter the course of one moon and send it headlong into another.
CEO_McPhee says:
::gets a med kit and scans her::
CNS_Chandra says:
*Transporter room*: Emergency transport of Petty Officer Perkins to sickbay. She's in Engineering.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CO/XO: Excuse me, sirs, but how can a planet be moved?
CEO_McPhee says:
::moves over to an control console, and puts in the commands for an emergency transport to Sickbay::
CEO_McPhee says:
*Sickbay*: I'm sending Petty Officer Perkins to you now.
CSO_Sojyngra says:
FCO: By changing its relation to the gravimetric constant..
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CSO: Okay, and what does that do, exactly?  I'm a tactical officer by trade.
CO_Cmdr_Shemara_Arca says:
FCO: If there was a gravitational shift it would pull the moon out of its original orbit.
FCO_Newell_McPhee says:
CO: Understood, sir.  Thank you.
Host Susan says:
ACTION: Perkins is transported directly to sickbay.
