Silver Arrows Operation : Far Reach

[Guest]

Dave arranged as he saw fit the conference room on the SA Tactical Ops Deck. It was a big move for him in his career as a scientist. Having tough times in his past back on DSE he was contacted by one specific individual within SA, because his skills were about to be used for good. He calibrated the holoprojector, arranged his suit. He was quite nervous. For years he searched for an opportunity like this, now his calls were answered.

The room had a very sophisticated look, making the rumors true about the technological level of the Arrows. Dave took a look over his PDA and analyzed it again, then the door of the room opened, it was his superior officer, cmdr. Hanzo Hasashi smiling and waving him.

Hanzo : So are you up for this Dave ?

Dave : I'm a little bit uptight but I can do it. Got all my homework done *smiling*

Hanzo : Good luck, the Arrow staff will arrive shortly and also the admiralty board.

Dave : Wait... what ? The admiralty comes too ?

Hanzo : Yes, they want to see the reason I kept buzzing them around, if the investment will be worth it..

Dave : Alright ... I will do it.

Hanzo : I know you can, good luck *smile*

Hanzo went and greeted the other members which came as following, Lt. Cmdr. Glen Moraigne, Lt. Eugene Bennet, Lt. Cmdr. David Hayter, Cpt. Raiden Caprica. The fellow members of the SA Tactical Command staff looked intrigued, curious and with a little of mistrust into the new scientist that was standing infront of them, with a little bit of anxiety. After some minutes, the admiralty came with Martind Forlon and Sam Thomas. He heard about them and knew they were legends into the far reaches of Sirius. It was honorable for Dave to show them his knowledge and research. Things got a little smoother when he saw the two admirals arriving, giving him a friendly smile of approval and trust.

All set down and Dave begun, Hanzo took seat right infront of him watching him in a friendly manner. The lights opened revealing Dave's blond hair and blue eyes and the pale skin he had. His black long coat covered only part of his metallic arms, which got the attention of some of the members in the conference room.

Dave : Good evening, gentlemen, fellow members of the SA Command, Admiralty staff. My name is Dave Synk, I am scientist that graduated the Manhattan Research Institute on the New York system. My specialization and the PhD i have is in Xenobiology and Space-Time continuum alterations. For almost ten years I've studied intensified a spatial phenomena called "Phased Alteration" because of an unfortunate moment in my life. Basically, a phased alteration is an unstable jump hole that can send you in the far reaches of our galaxy within seconds. The space-time continuum is altered and heavily manipulated so these links or gaps in space are formed. The source is not natural. There are special cases in which these events occur naturally, but the risk of accessing these phenomenons are quite high, resulting to sudden death. I worked with the DSE 12 years ago, but after deciding to leave the close minded corporations of Liberty, I thought to pursue more exotic goals, The Order. I participated as science officer in the various battles that occured after the discovery of Planet Crossfire. One of those battles cost me my arms. I then went even further with the research on the K'Hara species, the legacy of the K'Vosh Empire. K'Hara or Nomads of course. The K'Hara species guided me and my scientifical division towards the Inner Core sector. I've seen the environment there and it's astonishing how those species, so advanced and old in time, waged war on one another. Reminds me of our ancient enemies, the Eastern Coalition, I am still not believing how pacifying they are now in these times.

He took a sip of water and went on.

Dave : But I said enough of myself, I will move on on the project I want to propose to the Silver Arrow Command. I've called it Far Reach. Studying the Inner Core system, it was revealed to me that some planets, in key position in the system are habitable. Doing further analysis I've managed to come to the idea that one specific planet is capable of maintaining human life. At least at minimum levels so far, Planet Pichon located in the Ryssk system, at the border with the K'Vosh territory. I've seen that SA made already contact with the K'Vosh for the first time some time ago. My proposal is, we must take our reaches to the next level. My opinion is that the Inner Core is filled with magnificent resources and secrets that are yet undiscovered and this will mean a great opportunity for the Arrows to bring progress and advancement yet again, to the human civilization. There is yet a problem. As you know it, the Inner Core is very hostile towards our kind and even between them, the hostilities are amazingly savage. But first.. I will show you my idea..

Dave went towards the table and detached from his hand a small cube putting it on the middle of the conference table. It was very detailed and designed with various strange details, they looked like alien origin. He then pressed two sides of the cube and then it split in two, revealing inside, a sphere that was floating. Then from it, a massive and incredibly detailed holo-projection was made.

Scenic music

The giant star map, was filled with detailed information about the trajectory of the planet, the orbit around it's sun, exact coordinates, the surface overview, locations of the outpost establishment. Later it switched to another detailed scene regarding the surface outpost which was quite impressively big.

Dave : This is an early plan of an outpost. As you can see it is shielded by an alloy combined of titanium-niobium alloy wall. The other structures are ancient alien ruins, possibly K'Vosh but at a secondary analysis the results indicated told it could've been Setek remains, old about 10 million years or even more. The surface outpost will have the role to extract resources from the planet's surface so it can fuel our secondary objective which will be taken in view shortly. The main resources we will use to make the outpost and the future city, will be an alloy composed of Titanium, Gold, Niobium and Thelerium. The Thelerium can be found here *Switched to the star map* in Venn, in the Pyrrdra system and also Jormdar. Alongside Thelerium we can find the common materials that will be used to create our forward outpost but also, more exotic ones such as Syntherit, Theon. These last two are apparently under heavy usage on the Razak stations. Apparently they use these two materials from the raw core of some of their planets and fuel their bases. Those are unique and rare elements. My sources could not find any other place for them to be extracted. The Razak use a combination of them to create some sort of energy or fuel on their reactors. The main power source will be this .. *switched to a 3D schematic of an apparent reactor design*

Dave : .. a Phaeton Class Neutrinic Acceleration fusion reactor. On the research I made and the technology aquired while I worked within the Order, I was able to design these on future terraforming plans on Nomad Worlds, so I can guarantee they are safe proof with high durability. Nano technology is the key to our resolution on Planet Pichon. And there is also this..

Dave : ... schematic of the Far Reach Harbor. Heart of the human civilization in alien space.. And now... your opinion gentlemen..

Well, this is rly very, very good!  

[Utrack]

Even OP thanked
Wow Dave, you're a rly good writer

[Trinity]

So, how about we start doing some RP. And if possible, make OP give us our own Base

After a long wait, the project has kickstarted. Initial funding suggested jaw-dropping expenses, over 7 billion just to start the project, assemble the crew and materials. The project lead, Dr. Andrews has informed the Silver Arrows command of the project's start, and the pilots have been assembled. Most of the pilots are stationed above Planet Manhattan, where a fleet of cargo ships, warships and liveships, waiting for escorts, are about to move towards Omega-3.



In Omega-3, preparations are being made to accommodate the fleet, and all the things they bring. The largest piece of equipment that is headed towards Omega-3 is the engine that will be used as a reactor for the station. The dock built next to the Freeport will provide enough space for ships to dock, unload and get back on the track to bring more and more materials. In order for this to succeed, the SAOC has lended its help to organize and sort the pilots with their ships accordingly, so that the force that pushes in Inner Core is proportional to the force that will be guarding the live-ships that need to be escorted in order to start the project.



In order to achieve the goal as fast as possible, independent contractors are being contacted to provide help. The reach towards ensuring no cargo is lost to pirates, mercenaries are being hired to escort ships towards their final destination - Freeport Dock 7.

The initial build will require razing the buildings that Setek forces have put up on the planets surface. This will be done with an overhauled forward cannon, notably the G-74 Eviscerator, installed aboard a Liberty Cruiser. It fires a constant stream of energy and heat, thus obliterating all surface buildings. This will ensure that even the underground buildings will be dealt accordingly.

The first ships dispatched will be scouts, to deploy probes that will be sending constant stream of data to the GMG Research Facility in Omega-3, so that the team can plan when is the best time to send the fleet in.

This project is still in progress   

Latest info: Assembling funds, crew and material

The project is going as expected. The SA expedition 2570 has went well and so far deployed a vast array of sensors through Inner Core. Eventhough the participants had no idea of what was going on around them, the SA team deployed enough sensor stations to pick up the intel from the systems. All of the data packets are being streamed to the SA Deep Space Command Center in Weth, where the team will analyze them and then take them to Omega-3 for further examination.



Once the two fighters reached Coalition space, they were greeted by the CNS Vorkuta, serving as the Coalition's Flagship, and were allowed to pass back to Sirius. Through the jumpgates, back to Earth, and then the short way to Omega-3, the two pilots with the data were home at last. The ships were greeted by the SAOC, welcoming them back, and waiting patiently for the data mined in IC to reach the GMG Facility. Taking the trade lanes, they quickly came to the Freeport, and the dock built next to it that accommodates the ships that are constantly coming to Omega-3 bringing informations, materials and firepower. The whole buzz around Freeport makes the scenery beautiful, but both pilots know that the project is far from done, and that time is crucial. The buzz went dark once they were out of range, and the markings of the huge Ion Cannons and the research facility were starting to show.



When they entered the sector under lockdown by SA, they were greeted by the SAOC and were instructed to proceed to dock. Once aboard the station, the science team, with Dr. Andrews on board, quickly rushed to download all the data packets collected while in Inner Core. The station was massive in size and scope. One would think that not many people work there, as it's classified, but no, on the contrary, there's around 6000 men and women working on the base. Once the pilots took of their flight gear, you could see familiar faces, Fleet Admiral Forlon and Commander Hasashi. They were lead to a room where the core of the research was going on. It was huge. People were getting pieces of equipment in and out, running with their personal PDAs and calling eachother, but when the presence of the Fleet Admiral was confirmed, they stood their ground, without saying a word. Both Forlon and Hasashi were baffled by the amount of research conducted in such small amount of time, but still not enough.



Passing door by door, security station, one by one, reaching the main control room, you could see the amount of work that needs to be done. Standing on the top step, looking through the window, nothing was to be seen, until they hit the lights. One by one, the lights went on, unraveling the Phaeton Class Neutrinic Acceleration Fusion Reactor. It was massive. Over 1 mile in height, and 3/4 of a mile long, massive in scale and weight. But just to think that the project is about to begin, made them all feel happy.When they were informed, they excused themselves and headed to a bar to relax and replenish the energy they spent flying all the way back to Sirius

"It was a long run, wasn't it?"
"Yeah, obviously, but it does help us with the project, doesn't it?" said Forlon
"Of course it does. Now, forget about that, what do you want to drink?" Hanzo added.
"The usual, of course" Forlon responded Hanzo stands up, walks up the bar and says: "Barkeep, two scotch on rocks, quick"
