HoD Krud: Well, in last weeks episode we managed to garner some supplies and reutrn to our previous course to Klingon space....
HoD Krud: The IKB nej is cruising at warp 8 through the delta quad****
HoD Krud: ***Resume***
HoD Krud: IKV too
Klina Sogh: TAC> ::monitoring tactical sensors and scanners::
Norman Mark V: ::Watching the engineering readouts on the MSD::
Korlan Varus: CENG>::He was down in main enginnering discussing with some of the engineering beq about a few out of control Borg components.:
Data Soong: SCI>::leaning back in his seat:: Sensors indicate a large gaseous nebula 2 ly's ahead
HoD Krud: CO>::leans forward:: Nebula, large? HOw large?
Data Soong: SCI>::Tapping his console:: Sensors receiving new data, It appears that this section of space ahead is enveloped in this gaseous cloud.
HoD Krud: CO>Can we go around it?
Data Soong: SCI> It would add several years to our journey but longrange sensors indicate a poosile end to it8500 lys away
Data Soong: possible*
Korlan Varus: CENG>::He issued some orders and nodded as the beq returned to working on one of the power relays. He went to the EPS conduit and started to isolate several power flows to assist in the repairs.::
HoD Krud: CO>::leans back in his seat and looks at Norman then to Klina:: Decrease to full impulse.
Klina Sogh: TAC> ::taking it easy since there isn't any battle at the moment.. Quickly moves to helm and takes it off auto pilot then decreases speed:::
Klina Sogh: TAC> ::::taps another buttons to engage:: CO>Full impulse.
Norman Mark V: CENG>CO> We cannot scan through the could as of this time, qaH. It would make it difficult to navigate across.
Valana of Boreth has entered the room.
HoD Krud: CO>Norman, do an analysis on the cloud, see if we can travel through it
HoD Krud: (Welcome aboard Valana)
Valana of Boreth: ((sorry for being late, was hanging with parents at sister's house and proofing bilingual signs for a nephew's project))
Korlan Varus: (Korlan is the engineer here, the last time I was here.)
Klina Sogh: TAC> ::nods at Valana then moves from the helm console back to tactical:;
HoD Krud: ( yes, that is true, NOrman has been filling in. I am sure he dont mind being ops or something ;-) )
Norman Mark V: (That's fine)
Valana of Boreth: ((Norman can multitask lol))
Valana of Boreth: ]'
Klina Sogh: (Valana, we are full impulse on course for a large nebula)
Valana of Boreth: ((sorry about that last entry, my cat stomped on those keys))
Data Soong: SCI>::scanning:: Sir, we are nearing the Nebula
Klina Sogh: TAC> ::reading the incoming reports on the tactical sensors::
HoD Krud: CO>::sniffs the air smelling something felinish and looks to the screen:: Valana, drop to 1/4 impulse!
Valana of Boreth: helm>lu' qaH::cuts warp and slows to 1/4 impulse::
HoD Krud: CO>+ENG+ Korlan, report to the meH!
Korlan Varus: CENG>::He barked out another order to change the next circuit board, then he reinitiated EPS conduit 5. He tested and ran a dianostic on the power flow and then nodded.::
HoD Krud: CO>Norman I want a full analysis on our chances traversing that cloud
Korlan Varus: CENG>::He heard the command and then left main engineering immediately. He entered TL 1, after a short ride he was on the meH.::
Korlan Varus: CENG>CO>Reporting as ordered, qaH. ::He saluted with his right hand striking his battle armor near his heart.::
Klina Sogh: TAC> ::glancing around the meH at the other beq::
Data Soong: SCI>::scanning the large gaseous area of space as they fly along the outer edges of it::
Norman Mark V: OPS>CO> Working. It appears, thus far to be what is known as a Planetary Nebula. Esentially a large shell of gas emmited from a Red Giant Or Supergiant. We can travese it with little danger....
Norman Mark V: But navigation will be difficult.
Valana of Boreth: helm>::runs a nav scan::
HoD Krud: CO>::nods to Korlan::commander, we must go through that.. ::motions to the main viewer:: You will need to calibate andthing you might need to do that to to run inside of the gaseous region
Data Soong: SCI>::taps his consoel confirming Normans findings::
HoD Krud: CO>::looking at Valana:: Move us into the region and resume course.
Klina Sogh: TAC> ::sighs going back to monitoring the tactical console::
Korlan Varus: CENG>CO>::He nodded to him.:: According to the specs, there is one component that should help shield against the effects. Created by species 518. ::He immediately walked over to the console to calibrate the frequency
Korlan Varus: of the nebula, to their own shield frequencies, using the Borg component.
Korlan Varus: ::
Valana of Boreth: helm>lu' qaH::enters carefully::
HoD Krud: ****The ship enters the gaseous region, some systems dropping in efficiency as the ship disaooears****
Korlan Varus: CENG>::He notices the power drop and waits for the operation's officer to compensate, before making any adjustments.::
Valana of Boreth: helm>navigational sensors will be severely diminished qaH, I can nnot guarantee accurate readings
Norman Mark V: OPS>::Monitors power flow and scanners trying to compensate for interference.::
Klina Sogh: TAC> ::noting how power levels dropped from tactical, taps the console trying to compensate for cloaking device::
Korlan Varus: CENG>::He nodded and then adjusted the frequency of the Borg component and then switched a backup circuit to help in a overload situation, in case one would happen.::
Norman Mark V: OPS>CO> Sir, I have been successful at monitoring local gravimetric fields so we can avoid any natural bodies while in side the nebula. Also may I reccomend that the cloak is not effective in the nebula.....
Norman Mark V: and the power is better spent elsewhere.
HoD Krud: CO>CaN we run shields while inside?
Data Soong: SCI::taps console::
Korlan Varus: CENG>CO>HIja', qaH. The Borg component has been effective so far.
Valana of Boreth: helm>navigational sensor effectiveness has improved by 20% with the Borg technology adaptation qaH::said softly and calmly::
HoD Krud: CO>Valana, just keep us on course.And dont hit anything'
Valana of Boreth: helm>lu' qaH::has been keeping course, was just updating nav sensor status::
Korlan Varus: CENG>::Takes a quick glance out of a port viewer, as space particles float by, capable of scratching the hull at anytime.::
Data Soong: SCI>::taps:: qaH, I think I am detecrting something, something big.
HoD Krud: CO>What is it?
Norman Mark V: OPS> It could be a natural body, or another ship. Insufficient readings at this point
Data Soong: SCI>::taps:: UNable to tell , ship, an asteroid. unknown
HoD Krud: CO>Lock a signal into it and navigate your way awaround it Valana
Norman Mark V: OPS>CO> We could rig the sensors to work like ancient Sonar. It could give us an outline if it's another ship.
HoD Krud: CO>::nods to Norman, Do so.
HoD Krud: *** Gaseous cloud has some minor affects on the engines heating up the nacels
HoD Krud: **
Norman Mark V: OPS>::Reconfigures the sensors to emit a seiries of pulses like sonar. Begins the process, sending the readings to Sci and HELM.::
HoD Krud: CO>Report!
Valana of Boreth: helm>qaH navigational sensors are reading numerous solid objects of varying sizes and movements, unatle to determine accuracy of the scans
HoD Krud: Well, this isn't good!
Korlan Varus: CENG>CO>The gases are backing up into the nacells and causing a reaction with the plasma, the engine's temperature is starting to rise at a 5% increase every 10 minutes.
Data Soong: SZCI>::Taps:: sensors are becoming erratic
HoD Krud: CO>::listening to the report:: No this is not good at all:: DO what you can to cool down the nacells and stabilize the temperaturs
HoD Krud: CO>Data, how far till we reach the other side of this thing.
Valana of Boreth: helm>I may have to reduce speed if the engines begin to lose power stability
Norman Mark V: OPS> ALloting power for plasma coolant operations
Korlan Varus: CENG>CO>I suggest that we get out of here soon. In the meantime, I will work on a solution.
HoD Krud: CO>::nod to Valana:: Lets se eif they can cool them down first..
Valana of Boreth: helm>jIyaj qaH
Data Soong: SCI>::taps his console:: from what I can tell, aboiut 12 minutes sir, that may not be an acurate estimate either if sensors are wrong
HoD Krud: CO>::looks at the screen and then nods:: We have n choice, maintain course and speed Valana!
Korlan Varus: CENG>OPS>::He nodded to him.:: See if you can flood the nacell access tubes with nitrogen gas, a quick 10 second burst and then vent it. That should also cool us down quicker until I can find a way to neutralize the effects.
Norman Mark V: OPS>::Nods:: Initiating Nacelle nitrogen flush....now.
Data Soong: SCI>::taps:: I am detecting something else.. a pocket of regular space, 2 million K ahead.
Korlan Varus: CENG>OPS>Along with the coolant procedures, the temperature is back to normal, for the time being.
Valana of Boreth: helm>I will do so as long as I can qaH
HoD Krud: CO>A pocket of normal space?
Korlan Varus: CENG>::He looked through the databanks to find out a way to counter the effects of the gas. So far a solution did not present itself.::
Data Soong: SCI> A large pocket qaH, sensors are clearing up somewhat. The area appears to be 20 million kilometers in diameter
Valana of Boreth: helm>::continuing to run nav sensor scans as the nej keeps going forward::
Korlan Varus: CENG>CO>So far we are unable to counter the gases effect on the nacells. We are able to moderate the temperature of the engines. We can't keep doing this because we will run out of nitrogen and other resources fast.
HoD Krud: CO>::nod to Korlan:: Valana, head for that normal space pocket
Valana of Boreth: helm>lu' qaH::turns toward the apparent clear space::
Data Soong: SCI> I am also detecting large bodies of mass. Not sure what they are, could be small planetoids
Valana of Boreth: helm>confirmed, navigational sensors are registering more credible readings
HoD Krud: CO>Report Data!
Norman Mark V: OPS>If this is indeed a pocket of space, it would give us the opportunity to vent the engines properly.
Data Soong: SCI> I am detecting two large masses and what appears to be several possible bvessels
Valana of Boreth: helm>confirmed, the smaller objects appear to be in free motion
HoD Krud: CO>Vessels? Go to red alert. Norman, put security on high alert
Data Soong: SCI> We are nearing the edge of the area
HoD Krud: CO>Take us in slowly Va;lana
Norman Mark V: CO+T+CSEC> All decks full security alert. Repeat, security alert.
Valana of Boreth: helm>lu' qaH::slows down even more, crosses the boundary of the clear space pocket::
Klina Sogh: TAC> ::listening to the meH reports::
HoD Krud: ***IKV nej breaks through into the pocket of normal space, there are two small planetoids and several strange vessels orbiting them, they appear to be nonthreatening****
Data Soong: SCI> I am detecting vessels sir
HoD Krud: CO>::leans forward:: Norman, Cloak the ship!
Norman Mark V: OPS> Actiaveting Cloak.
Korlan Varus: CENG>CO>We need to vent before cloaking, or we may be detected.
HoD Krud: ****IKV nej cloaks just as a small scout type vessel turns to intercept it****
