CO : Captain we are on course Warp 6

Host CO_Snow says:

CEO Siwiak says:
::In holodeck 2 surrounded by a replica of a miniature solar system while attempting to find ways of producing water for arid planets.  A water-rich asteroid floats 7000 km from one of the Class M planets in the system::

CMO Chris says:

::on bridge::

Host CO_Snow says:
OPS: Thank you Mr. Helman.

CEO Siwiak (CompDefine.wav)

CEO Siwiak says:
Computer:  Launch asteroid on new heading, 032 mark 4.

Computer says:
CEO:  Coarse laid in.  Asteroid is moving at a speed of 600 km per second.  Impact with planetary atmosphere in 15 seconds.

CEO Siwiak says:
::observes impact.  Watches with satisfaction as millions of gallons of water flood through the atmosphere.  Adds findings to his PADD for his report to the XO and CO later::

OPS Helman says:
::Scanning with LRS::

ACTION:  Asteroid skims across simulated planet's atmosphere and dissolves into water particles that spread across the planet, producing rain that floods across the dry lands below.  The only damage is caused by a sonic boom that creates a small depression in an uninhabited area of the planet

Host CO_Snow says:
OPS: Estimated time of arrival.

CEO Siwiak says:
Computer:  Pause program.  Change planet parameters to Class H planet capable of supporting life.  Account for loss of nucleogenic particles in atmosphere and restart.  Attempt to create models for several different planets with Class M and H parameters.  Continue testing and inform me when done.

Computer says:
CEO:  Testing complete.  47 different results formed from set parameters.

CMO Chris says:
::go to sick bay ::

CMO Chris says:

CMO Chris says:

CMO Chris says:

CEO Siwiak says:
Computer:  Narrow field to success scenarios only.  Wait....  In addition, attempt to formulate models that would account for the introduction of water-rich Mycorrhizal Fungus into plant rich areas of the set planets.  Display results separately from these other tests.

OPS Helman says:
CO : 5 minutes

XO Kyle says:
*CEO* How's that report coming Mr. Siwiak?

CEO Siwiak says:
*XO*:  Just finishing up the test models sir.

CMO Chris says:
CO: any thing else sir?

XO Kyle says:
COMM: Signal: This it Lt. Cmdr. Kyle of the QIb

Host CO_Snow says:
:;takes PADD from CMO::

CEO Siwiak says:
Computer:  Where is the location of the water-rich asteroid that CSO Soren located a few hours ago?

Prunius says:
@*COMM* QIb: Welcome Cmdr., What can I do for you..?

CEO Siwiak says:
::hmmm, Prunius, funny name::

CSO Helman says:
CEO : Robert it was in another system like 3 dozen light years away

Computer says:
CEO: On the Surface of Manadlai IV

CMO Chris says:
:: site down ::

CMO Chris says:
:: still drinking is water ::

CEO Siwiak says:
::hmm, now it's on the surface?  I never put it there, damn...::

XO Kyle says:
COMM: Prunius: We are investigating the destruction of a starship in a nearby system...the energy signature found there led us here. Do you have any knowledge of this?

CSO Helman says:
CO : Any orders Sir?

Host CO_Snow says:
Helman: Report on scans.

Prunius says:
@*COMM* QIb: Destruction of a Starship...um, why no, why should I have such knowledge..?

CEO Siwiak says:
::scans for anything strange in the third planet that relates with the water cycle::

CEO Siwiak (Scanners.wav)

CEO Siwiak (SensorAlert.wav)

FCO_Halcyon says:
::runs diagnostics::

XO Kyle says:
COMM: Prunius: Well sir...whatever destroyed that ship came from this area. We have reason to believe they were stealing water from a planet in that system. And...there is the arid nature of your planet. ::raises eyebrow::

CEO Siwiak says:
CO:  Sir, the 4th planet in this system has low gravity and needs constant replenishment.

CSO Helman says:
CO : Sir it's a standard Comm signal

CEO Siwiak says:
CO:  The third planet is a regular class M, with little water...

CEO Siwiak says:
CMO:  Hey doc, can you get me a glass of tea?  I kinda feel sick today...

Host CO_Snow says:
CEO: Any suggestions as to how we can provide a water supply to these people? Would your asteroid proposal work in this case?

CSO Helman says:
CO : It's comes from the government complex

Prunius says:
@*COMM* QIb: Cmdr. We do aquiver water from other worlds, it is needed for our survival, but I know nothing of a Starship being destroyed.::  Whisper to his assistant::

Host CO_Snow says:
Helman: Thank you. Scan 3rd planet for underground water sources.

CEO Siwiak says:
CO:  Perhaps, but such an asteroid is light years away from this system.  With a few shuttles I may be able to get one...

CSO Helman says:
::Scans the System for water sources::

CEO Siwiak says:
::notices water underground on third planet::

CSO Helman says:
CO : There is a massive amount of water underground on the 3rd planet

XO Kyle says:
COMM: Prunius: These other worlds you are taking water from need it just as badly as you do...Perhaps we can come up with an alternate solution.

CEO Siwiak says:
Nobody:  Hmmm.... water.

CEO Siwiak says:
CO:  Perhaps this system has been robbed of water as well.

Host CO_Snow says:
Helman: Can you access the water?

Host CO_Snow says:
CEO: That's quite possible.

CEO Siwiak says:
::scans for any other systems with a lack of water in the area::

CSO Helman says:
CO : Perhaps with the use of transporters or a focused phaser shot

XO Kyle says:
COMM: Prunius: We have detected a massive water supply beneath your surface...We are attempting to access it .

CEO Siwiak says:
CO:  Sir, most systems in this sector have a lack of water as well.

Prunius says:
@*COMM* QIb: Cmdr. there is plenty from where we have been taking it, we have colony's to support, there is no other water in this sector, besides, we have been taking it from our source for many years now, I have had no complaints

CEO Siwiak says:
::scans the surface for ships capable of transporting water::

XO Kyle says:
COMM: Prunius: Have you communicated with these "other sources"?

CEO Siwiak says:
::thinks this is going no where::

CEO Siwiak says:
::moves over to SCI station and scans for those ships::

::rubs temples...bad habit picked up from CO::

Prunius says:
@*COMM* QIb: Cmdr. No we haven't, like I said, we have been taking water from this planet for thousands of years

CEO Siwiak says:
CO:  Sir, a ship with a lot of water is entering the system.

Host CO_Snow says:
CEO: Scan that ship!

CEO Siwiak says:
::Scans the ship for more info.  Looks for lasers as well::

CEO Siwiak says:
CO:  Sir, the ship is heavily armed!

XO Kyle says:
COMM: Prunius: You must not continue with your taking of water. Those planets are inhabited and need water just as much as your people.

Host CO_Snow says:
FCO: Cloak us!

CEO Siwiak says:

CEO Siwiak says:
::puts weapons on standby::

XO Kyle says:
COMM: Prunius: We have cloaked. A heavily armed vessel is approaching us. Is this one of your ships?

CEO Siwiak says:
CO:  Sir, the ship is an impulse ship with weapons that are not even up to Ferengi standards...  ::forms a little smile::

XO Kyle says:
CEO: Scan that ship and see if it matches the energy signature on Mandalai.

CEO Siwiak says:
::scans for signature::

Host CO_Snow says:
CEO: Thank you ::grins to self::

CEO Siwiak says:
::looks around at empty posts around the bridge.  Boy, I don't have that many hands::

Prunius says:
@*COMM* QIb: Yes it is, it is returning from our supply planet, do you wish to inspect it..?

FCO_Halcyon says:
CO: Should we move to intercept?

CEO Siwiak says:
::scans for traces of Mandalai soil in the water onboard the ship::

XO Kyle says:

Host CO_Snow says:
FCO: Yes set intercept course.

FCO_Halcyon says:

Prunius says:
@*COMM* QIb: Very well, but use only scans, no boarding parties please

CEO Siwiak says:
::Hmm, tactical today.  First time for everything::

Host CO_Snow says:
Helman: Take a team to inspect the supply vessel. CEO: Yes...Yellow alert.

CEO Siwiak (Yellow Alert.wav)

CSO Helman says:
