XO_Cmd_Gaeb says:
FCO: How far?
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: awakens to a noise coming from the corridor ::
XO_Cmd_Gaeb says:
TO: Can we navigate through this debris field or are the objects too large for our shields?
Host FCO_Ens_Fast says:
XO:  About 100,000 km dead ahead.  ETA is about 30 seconds at present speed.
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
XO: Deflector field at 100% sir.
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
::Turns Short Range Sensors to determine the makeup of the debris field.::
XO_Cmd_Gaeb says:
FCO; Slow us down to a secure speed for navigation through the field
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
XO: Scanning now to determine makeup, Commander.  Can never tell what you might find under a rock...huh?  Oh.
Host FCO_Ens_Fast says:
XO:  Some of the larger pieces will do damage, sir.  I can navigate between stars, but this looks more complicated than I am rated for, sir.  Aye sir, slowing to impulse.
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
::door chimes::  Outloud: Come in
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:

CEO_Lt_Jankara says:
Michaels: Give her whatever she needs.
CMO_Lt_Marisol says:

CEO_Lt_Jankara says:
Michaels: You cover everything down here.  I'm going to be upstairs just in case.
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
XO: Still scanning, Commander.  Well, still analyzing I should say.
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: stops just before the door slides open :: *AFCO*: What's the problem?
EO_Ens_Michaels says:
CEO: Yes, Ma'am.
CMO_Lt_Marisol says:

FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
*AFCO*: On my way Ensign. Hold down the fort until I get there.
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:

SC_Capt_Marek says:
::Enters the Turbolift and directs it to the Bridge::

*FCO*:  Aye, sir.
SC_Capt_Marek says:

Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
::rounds the corner and sees Jaina getting into a lift::  CEO:  Jaina!
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
::Can't help but smile as Swanson tells about a small problem with one crew member and their particular pet.....a type of scorpion::
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
XO: Interesting, although a bit intimidating, Commander.  Looks like it's from a battle, a wide spread battle.  Detecting it spreads out over...close to a light year either way.  I wonder.  ::Begins comparing the debris to the scans taken at Omicron Lyra on 10302.01.::
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: steps out onto the bridge and heads over to the helm to relieve Ensign Fast :: AFCO: I'm here.
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
XO: Looking now to see if we can tell if this was from the th'Alcair war with the ch'Tan.  Limited data to work with but might work.
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
Outloud:  Whatever it was that happened here it was one heluva brouhaha.
XO_Cmd_Gaeb says:
CSO: Cross-check with the registry of lost ships from the Federation database
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: takes her seat and checks the data ::
Host FCO_Ens_Fast says:
FCO:  Aye sir.  ::vacates station for the senior FCO::
SC_Capt_Marek says:
::notices the sensor reading on the debris:: Self: Fascinating... ::raises an eyebrow::
CEO_Lt_Jankara says:
::takes the lift to the bridge::
Lieutenant J.G. Swanson says:
CNS: I can tell you that when I stood up and turned around, the last thing I expected was to e eye to eye with his pet!  ::laughs::  The glass was so clean I thought it wasn't in a cage and was going to attack me!  ::wipes a tear from laughing so hard::  After I looked again I think I scared it as much as it scared me
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
TO: If it's from a single battle.  Maybe a series of battles?  If so, that means this is an area of some significance.
SC_Capt_Marek says:
::overhears the analysis on the debris performed by the Bridge crew::
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
::taps panel on wall::  Computer:  What is the destiantion of the lift with Lieutenant Jankara in it?
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
CSO: Or was at onew time at least, any idea how old this stuff is?
Host Computer says:
SCD: Lieutenant Jankara's destination is the Bridge.
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
::takes the next lift to the bridge::
CEO_Lt_Jankara says:
::steps out of the lift and glances around the bridge::
CEO_Lt_Jankara says:
::moves to the Engineering console and logs in::
CMO_Lt_Marisol says:
::leaves sickbay in Dr. Pei's hands and heads for the lounge for a bite to eat::
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
All: Wow, this stuff it old.  About a millenium old.  Seems like it may be from early in the war.  Given that war was supposed to have lasted over 40 generations, I'd say we found an early batlte sight.
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: looks over at Trix :: CSO/TO: Anything in that debris that might give us reason for concern?
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
XO: Commander, we might want to take a look at this field.  It may be out of date, but so far our data on the th'Alcair...and the ch'Tan is limited to a few pieces.
CEO_Lt_Jankara says:
*EO*: Keep everything solid down there.
EO_Ens_Michaels says:
*CEO*: Aye, Ma'am, everything is running well.
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
FCO: Nothing so far, as long as we don't jump into ramming speed.
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
FCO: The debris itself, probably not.  Outside of the potential impact damage of course, Lieutenant.  But if this many ships were lost here, our being here could attract attention.
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
::steps out onto the bridge behind the CEO::  CEO:  Hello, Lieutenant.  ::smiles::
XO_Cmd_Gaeb says:
CSO: Noted, but one mission at a time lieutenant
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: smiles at the TO :: TO: No ramming speed.
CEO_Lt_Jankara says:
::looks up:: SCD: Hello yourself. ::smiles::  :Up early today?
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
XO: Sir, we might want to think about placing a warning beacon in this area as it is navigation hazard.
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
CSO: Sure looks someone didn't like someone doesn't it?
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
XO: If you wish, Commander, but this may help us with the primary mission, learning what they once were.  And if these beings were once closer than we first thought.  These ships, they share a lot of similarity of design.  I wonder if we caught the end of a long Civil War?
XO_Cmd_Gaeb says:
TO/CSO: Prepare and launch a signal beacon and log the field with Starfleet Command, they might send a science team to investigate, or we will do it on our way back
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
XO: Aye sir
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
FCO: If this is what I think it is, that is an understatement.
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
XO: Yes Commander.  I will continue to run Short Range Scanner analysis on the debris field as we pass.
CEO_Lt_Jankara says:
::hears the conversation and shakes her head:: Self: Never understood civil war, myself.  Never anything civil about war.
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
CEO:  Yeah, had trouble sleeping.  Too excited.  ::smiles::  What's going on?  ::points at the debris on teh viewscreen::
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
::Begins to scan the debris field to determine how close the design lineage of the two ship styles seems to be.::
SC_Capt_Marek says:
::continues overhearing the crew on the Bridge and thinks:: They are extremely competent.
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: taps her console and  checks their course and speed through this debris field ::
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
TO/ CEO: If I could get some feedback, as we journey through the field if we can start to build a kind of ship database it may help us in future encounters.  My expertise isn't exactly in ship capabilities so I could use some input.
CEO_Lt_Jankara says:
SCD: Ships, maybe leftovers from our previous visitors?
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
CSO: I'll see if I can come up with anything.
TO_ENS_Sampson says:
::Begins scanning for any residual energy readings, or weapons signatures::
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
::Laughs with Swanson as the small chime sounds::   Lieutenant J.G. Swanson: Oh!  Our time is up ::stands::  Thank-you for the laugh, though ::they both walk to the door::  Anytime you want to talk, just let me know....counselor or fellow crew mate, either works for me
Lieutenant J.G. Swanson says:
CNS: Thanks, Counselor!  ::walks out the door, stops and turns around::  You know, this wasn't so bad after all :;smiles and heads out into the corridor::
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
::Scans for any planets within the debris field that fall in the M Class or close.::
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
::stares at the debris::  ~~~CEO:  Tell you later.~~~  CEO:  That's a lot of debris.  ::lets out a low whistle as he looks over the CSO's shoulder::
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
::still smiling, heads to her desk to write her report for her last session for the day::
CEO_Lt_Jankara says:
~~~SCD: Oh sure, tell me you are excited then change the subject.~~~ ::grins:: SCD: Yes, sir, it is.  That's why I came up here.  Thought it would be better to stay in the immediate loop just in case.
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
SCD: It's a lot of debris, Commander.  It's just a guess, but I think we may have stumbled across an early part of the conflict between the th'Alcair and the ch'Tan.
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
CEO:  Well, I think we're approaching some "need to know" stuff.  ~~~CEO:  You really do want to know this.  I'm only sorry I cannot say it out loud.~~~
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
SCD: Funny part is, there are a lot of similarities between the ships I'm scanning.  Looking to see if perhaps there is a planet nearby that the sides may have fought over.  Or come from...
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
CSO:  Early part?  How early, Lieutenant?
CEO_Lt_Jankara says:
~~~SCD: It's okay.  We'll figure it out.~~~
CMO_Lt_Marisol says:
::in the loung nibbling at her meal::
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
SCD: The ships debris we've been scanning appears to be over a thousand years old, Commander.  Given this war lasted fourty...fourty two generations, this is probably early.
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
::Finishes up and then leaves her office, looks around when she steps out into the corridor and decides to head to the lounge::
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
::Looks down.:: Self: Yes, it may be.  But I don't think we'll get the chance even if we find a potential origin world.
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
FCO:  Report.  What is the course like through the debris field?  And what is our ETA to the other side?
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
CSO:  Over a millenium?  That's something.  I knew it was a long war.  But this really puts a different understanding to it for me.
CEO_Lt_Jankara says:
SCD: Makes me wonder what the rest of their space looks like.  With debris this far out and all.
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
SCD: Well sir, it's going to be tricky, but I can get us through. At reduced speed it's going to take 17 minutes to clear the field.
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
::Walks into the lounge and takes a quick look around before heading over to an empty spot::
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
CEO:  Yeah.  Me too.  ::frowns::  I'll be happy if we can gain some intelligence on the enemy we face in the present.
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
SCD: Yes Commander.  Given the 42 generations, figuring most Warp Technology capable species have generations of 20 years or more, it is a long war.  Or was one.
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
FCO:  Understood.  When we've cleared the field resume course and speed.
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
SCD: Aye sir.
CMO_Lt_Marisol says:
::finishes dinner and leans back in her chair to enjoy a drink::
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
CSO:  ::doing mental math::  Just shy of 24 years in this case, right?
CEO_Lt_Jankara says:
SCD: If it wasn't so old, I would suggest bringing some on board for further examination.  But, surely what we've already seen gives us more than this could::
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
SCD: Yes, if this was the start of the war.  I think 20 years is a bit on the low side for some species.  Like Vulcans, a generation is about 50 years I think.
CMO_Lt_Marisol says:
::orders a fresh drink and wills herself to relax yet stay awake::
Host SCD_LtCmdr_Walker says:
CSO:  Humans use a figure of about 40 years if I'm not mistaken.  That would put this about the midle of the war then, by that math.
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
CEO: Unless we find some intact pieces, but I am guessing the technology changed enough over a millenium that perhaps it won't be as much of an aid as we could hope.  At least for the analysis part, archeology could use this for certain, Lieutenant.
CMO_Lt_Marisol says:
::sees the Counselor enter and waves her over::
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
::waves back and heads over to the Dr::  CMO: Dr ::grins:: How have your appointments been going?
CMO_Lt_Marisol says:
CNS: Going well, but it has been insanely busy.
CMO_Lt_Marisol says:
CNS: How about you?
CEO_Lt_Jankara says:
::talk about generations reminds her to speak with the CMO about her future generations::
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
CMO: So far not too bad.  It's a good way to meet the crew though
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
:: still monitoring their course ::
CMO_Lt_Marisol says:
CNS: A lot more personal anyway.  It's hard to really familiarize yourself with the personnel ust by reading the files
CSO_LtJG_Trix says:
SCD/ XO: So far not seeing any sign of a planet in the debris field.  Guess that would have been too easy.  ::Grins.::
CEO_Lt_Jankara says:
::sends a message to the CMO for a consultation then focuses back on the situation at hand::
CNS_Ens_CTriel says:
::nods::  CMO: It is.  I kind of hate to admit this, but Professor Anton was right about the first crew meetings being a good way to both meet them and get a good feel for the ship
FCO_Lt_Jinx says:
SCD: Sir, we are about to exit the debris field.
