Our sensors detected a large asteroid on a collision course for a Class M planet with several hundred thousand inhabitants. | When {crewname} was unable to redirect the asteroid with a tractor beam, we were forced to destroy it with photon torpedos. Thankfully the debris did not cause any causalities. | We deflected the asteroid towards an uninhabited moon thanks to {crewname}'s tractor beam adjustments. | According to our long-range scans, no other astronomical objects in the region pose a threat to the planet. | |
While flying through the atmosphere of a gas giant, the away team encountered a dense pocket of gas that began buckling the shuttle's hull. | There was a minor hull breach in the aft compartment, though {crewname} eventually sealed it off with a forcefield. | Since the dense gas they encountered does not match any compounds known to Starfleet, I've requested a full report based on the away team's analysis. | ||
A computer malfunction shut off holodeck safety protocols while several crew members were playing through the Battle of Thermopylae. | While {crewname} was struggling to reactivate the safety protocols, one of the ancient soldiers wounded {crewname}. | Digging through the holoprogram's files, {crewname} erased the ancient soldiers' weapons before they could do any harm. | After a computer diagnostic revealed that a faulty isolinear subprocessor caused the malfunction, {crewname} had it replaced. | |
We lost all signal from a probe once it entered the atmosphere of a storm-clouded planet. | It took {crewname} several more probes to make contact with the first and relay its signal back to the {shipname}. | The probe's scans indicated a highly acidic ocean beneath the cloud cover, inhospitable to most carbon-based life as we know it. | ||
We received a distress call from a {factionname} science vessel caught in a plasma stream between two binary stars. | In order to increase power to our tractor beam, {crewname} had to drain the {shipname}'s shields. | {crewname} increased the strength of our tractor beam enough to tug the {factionname} vessel free. | Once the {factionname} vessel departed, we stayed to observe this unique binary star cluster at a safer distance. | |
While exploring a Class L planet, the away team came across a chasm between them and their destination. | They were forced to hike around the chasm when {crewname} could find no way across. | On the other side, they reached a valley full of undiscovered plant life and glittering waterfalls. | ||
Our journey took us past a cryonics satellite of unknown origin whose power generators were failing. | Two of the stasis pods lost power before {crewname} was able to adapt one of our power cells to fit the satellite's generators. | Without knowing who the passengers were or why they were put into stasis, we chose not to wake them up, but I wish them a safe journey. | ||
A rogue Jem'Hadar ship attacked the {shipname}, disabling one of its artificial gravity generators. | The Jem'Hadar struck the {shipname} with another polaron beam before {crewname} could reach a computer console and restore artificial gravity. | Having driven the Jem'Hadar fighter off, we are making our way out of this sector as quickly as our damaged systems will allow. | ||
A shuttle's internal temperature began to plummet while {crewname} was charting a frozen planet. | With no other source of heat, {crewname} had to burn several supply packs to keep warm. | The data from {crewname}'s flight revealed buildings frozen beneath the planet's icy surface. | ||
The entrance of an abandoned outpost suddenly slammed shut, trapping an away team inside as its walls began closing in. | Two crew members sustained painful fractures by the time {crewname} identified which power line to cut to stop the crushing walls. | Before the outpost could crush the away team, {crewname} located a power junction behind a wall panel and shut down its defenses. | The rest of the technology the away team discovered in the outpost was similarly dangerous but impressive in its design. | |
During an away mission, {crewname} was captured by {factionname} bounty hunters and thrown into a cell in their camp. | When the guards brought food to the captured away,[1] {crewname} was forced to fight them for the keys. | Once out of the cell, the away team recovered their belongings and requested an emergency beam out. | ||
Damaged by an encounter with hostile {factionname} ships, the {shipname} began losing antimatter containment! | Multiple secondary systems overloaded when {crewname} rerouted power to restore the warp core's antimatter containment. | If we had been forced to eject our warp core, we would have been stranded in this sector. I'm glad we can still continue our voyage. | ||
While the {shipname} was passing by a subspace corridor, a gravimetric distortion began pulling the {shipname} inside. | {crewname} focused a deflector beam at the opening to the corridor. The shockwave threw the {shipname} free but knocked out power on several decks. | Channeling a graviton beam through the {shipname}'s deflector, {crewname} safely closed the opening to the subspace corridor. | There's no telling how far the corridor would have carried us if we'd been pulled inside, or whether we would have been able to find our way home. | |
Our sensor array began picking up dozens of sensor ghosts as we entered a plasma field. | By manually reducing our sensor range, {crewname} was able to detect two Hirogen warships before they could attack the {shipname}! | We successfully drove off the warships and proceeded through the plasma field at maximum impulse. | ||
A probe flew towards the {shipname} and began transmitting a signal that overloaded multiple power conduits. | With no way to counteract the probe's signal, {crewname} finally overloaded its circuits with a deflector pulse. The explosion caused minor damage to our deflector. | After isolating the transmission's frequency, {crewname} sent out a counteracting signal, canceling out its effects and destroying the probe. | We have no way of knowing whether the probe was intended as a weapon or whether the damage its signal caused was unintentional. | |
When the {shipname} docked at a Cardassian station to take on supplies, a computer virus from the station infected the ship. | The virus only shut down a few secondary systems before {crewname} isolated it. | We questioned the station's commander about the virus, but she claimed that no such virus had affected the station's systems. | ||
We found the life support systems aboard a {factionname} space station failing and its main computer non-responsive. | It only took {crewname} a few minutes to trace the power drain to a virus in the station's computer core. Rebooting the core purged the virus from its systems. | We spent a day offering medical treatment to those on the station most affected by the loss of life support. | ||
We discovered an asteroid storm heading directly towards a planet with a long-defunct orbital defense grid. | The {shipname} destroyed as many approaching asteroids as we could with phaser fire, but {crewname} could not re-activate the defense grid in time. | Though we found no sentient life on the planet's surface, its rich ecosystem would have been devastated by such a storm. Thanks to our intervention, that ecosystem will live on. | ||
As we were sailing past a black star, the {shipname} suddenly changed course towards it. The computer would not respond to our navigational corrections. | Unable to localize the problem, {crewname} had to shut down main power. A few minutes later, an energy-based lifeform drifted out of the computer's memory core. | Whatever the lifeform was, it left the {shipname} rather than speak with us. Scans of the black star system it was guiding us towards indicate similar lifeforms in the area. | ||
Unexpected turbulence knocked out a shuttle's impulse drive while {crewname} was flying it down to the surface of a moon. | With no clear site for an emergency landing, {crewname}'s shuttle was badly damaged upon impact. | Once the local weather grew calm, we were able to recover {crewname} and the shuttle and begin repairs. | ||
While charting the unusual craters of a small moon, {crewname}'s shuttle was suddently pulled out of orbit. | The {shipname} had to tug {crewname}'s shuttle free of the gravitational anomaly gripping it. | A gravitational anomaly had gripped the shuttle, but {crewname} made a risky jump to warp and escaped. | With the telemetry from the shuttle, we adjusted our scans and found that dozens of similar anomalies were the source of the moon's craters. | |
The {shipname} entered a sector of space patrolled by a massive network of drone ships. | We were forced to destroy half a dozen drones when {crewname}'s piloting attracted their attention. | Moons and planets gave {crewname} the protection the {shipname} needed to navigate the sector's star system undetected. | None of the planets we passed in the sector appeared to be inhabited, which leaves the question of who built the drones, and why? | |
Our voyage brought us to a {factionname} colony that was being bombarded by a meteor storm. | Arriving at the colony, {crewname} could not calm the panicked citizens enough to evacuate all of them, and many were lost in the bombardment. | When all of the colonists could not be evacuated in time, {crewname} beamed them underground into caves or up to the {shipname}. | The meteor storm devastated the colonists' homes and infrastructure. We shared what supplies we could, but it will take months for them to rebuild. | |
A routine visit to a {factionname} trading station took a turn when {crewname} went missing. | Station security caught {crewname}'s Zibalian captors attempting to leave the station before {crewname} did. | Local security took custody of the Zibalians and apologized for the danger {crewname} had been placed in. | ||
We traveled through a region with subspace anomalies that seemed to be pulled towards our warp nacelles. | Even with {crewname} at the helm, one anomaly reached us and passed through the {shipname}'s starboard nacelle, temporarily disabling it. | As much as I would have liked to study the anomalies, the risk they posed to our safety was too great. | ||
A devastating attack from Nausicaan pirates caused fires and damaged environmental controls in several sections of the {shipname}. | Two more sections of the {shipname} caught fire as {crewname} struggled to organize damage control teams amidst the chaos. | None of the damage is beyond repair, but it will take at least 4 days to restore life support in the damaged areas. | ||
{crewname} was visiting a Tellarite ship when they were attacked by several {factionname} vessels! | Without knowing the Tellarite ship's controls, {crewname} could only stand by while they struggled to defend themselves. | Despite the unfamiliar helm controls, {crewname} took the helm and evaded most of the {factionname}'s attacks while the Tellarites returned fire. | The {shipname} arrived just in time to fend off the last of the {factionname} ships. Luckily, the Tellarites reported only non-fatal casualties. | |
A Maquis cell took {crewname}'s away team hostage on a Class D moon. | The Maquis would not let {crewname}'s wounded away team members go, and it took nearly a day for the {shipname} to find them. | After {crewname} convinced the Maquis to let the rest of the away team go, they alerted the {shipname} and we were able to rescue {crewname}. | The Maquis must have been truly desperate to take Starfleet officers captive, and to hide out in such a desolate place. | |
While in command during a night shift, {crewname} spotted a group of armed Briori ships approaching the {shipname}. | A simple show of shield strength from {crewname} was enough to turn the Briori ships around. | I've placed the ship on yellow alert until we finish passing through what seems to be Briori-occupied space. | ||
A dispute broke out among {crewname}'s away team over how best to secure a research site. | The argument quickly ended when {crewname} implemented suggestions from both sides. | On long voyages, some tension among the crew is to be expected. I've asked {crewname} to spend more time with the away team and address their concerns. | ||
We were sailing through a red giant system when its star went supernova, sending a massive shockwave towards us. | The shockwave struck the {shipname} just before {crewname} jumped to warp, knocking us several lightyears off course. | Just before the shockwave struck the {shipname}, {crewname} plotted new coordinates and jumped to warp. | None of our prior scans of the star suggested that it was close to collapsing, but we are glad to have escaped the system intact. | |
A sleek, unfamiliar ship began chasing {crewname}'s shuttle while the away team searched an asteroid field for wreckage. | A nearby nebula gave {crewname} enough shelter to lose the pursuing ship. | Despite all attempts to communicate our peaceful intentions, we received no reply from the ship's pilot. | ||
An armored {factionname} mercenary tried to bully {crewname}'s away team into paying him a "toll" while they visited a trading outpost. | He left with a scowl when {crewname} stood up to him, seeing that his intended mark was more stubborn than he'd anticipated. | According to the outpost's commander, the same mercenary had been intimidating travelers for months. Perhaps his time in the outpost's brig will put a stop to it. | ||
A routine shuttle flight turned dangerous when {crewname} encountered rocks floating in a planet's thick atmosphere! | Even with hazy sensor readings to rely on, {crewname}'s piloting reflexes kept the shuttle from colliding with the rock formations. | I've ordered a second, slower survey of the planet to discover what gravitational and atmospheric properties could make such formations possible. | ||
While {crewname} led an away team through phosphorescent caves, one cavern began to collapse! | {crewname}'s orderly evacuation got the whole away team out of the cavern before they were trapped. | Our scans from the {shipname} picked up faint seismic activity around that time—likely the cause of the cave-in. | ||
The ground of a once-cooled lava field split open as {crewname}'s away team crossed it! | Several crew members sustained burns when {crewname}'s path led them close to new lava flows, but all made it back to the {shipname}. | The path {crewname} charted kept the away team out of the path of new lava flows. | With this new surge of volcanic activity, there is no telling how this planet's surface will be reshaped over the years or decades to come. | |
An ice storm separated {crewname}'s away team from their shuttle, forcing them to make their away along a frozen cliffside. | On {crewname}'s orders, the away team fashioned rope out of wiring from their supplies, staying anchored to one another on the perilous walk. | From orbit, the passing ice storm was a magnificent sight, but no less dangerous for its beauty. | ||
I dispatched an away team to respond to a crashed ship's distress call, but it's passengers had set up an ambush! | {crewname} covered the away team while they raced back to the shuttle, escaping unharmed. | Back aboard the {shipname}, {crewname} sent out a warning buoy to alert other travelers to the trap. | ||
An away team stumbled across the path of several bony, canine-like beasts. | One of the creatures tackled {crewname} before the away team could wrestle it off and make their escape. | By flanking the creatures, {crewname} managed to drive them away with a few well-placed phaser blasts. | Later, the away team spied a herd of grazing, scaly creatures that may have been the canines' intended prey. | |
A massive rockslide buried {crewname}'s shuttle while the away team was sheltering from a thunderstorm. | {crewname} had to dismantle the away team's equipment to create enough charges to blast the shuttle free. | {crewname} set up sorium charges around the shuttle's perimeter, removing enough rocks for it to fly free. | Despite all the destruction it caused, the thunderstorm's passage left a beautiful, cloud-streaked sky in its wake. | |
{crewname} detected a faint energy signature off of the {shipname}'s port bow. | The cloaked Srivani ship fired several shots at the {shipname} before {crewname} could fight it off. | A spread of phaser fire revealed a cloaked Srivani ship, which quickly backed off at {crewname}'s command. | We do not know what they wanted from us, but at least none appear to have boarded our ship. | |
The {shipname} reached a Mizarian settlement just as a group of {factionname} ships attacked it. | {crewname} used a shuttle to distract the ships until the {shipname} could intervene, though one of the shuttle's impulse nacelles was damaged. | {crewname} took to a shuttle and led the ships into narrow canyon,[2] where they were easily disabled. | It seems the Mizarian settlers' personal philosophies do not allow them to build weapons, even for defense, so they were grateful for {crewname}'s help. | |
What we took to be an abandoned station orbiting a rocky moon fired a pulse weapon at the {shipname} as we passed it. | In the process of disabling the station, {crewname}'s phaser fire blasted holes in several sections. | Aiming for its generators, {crewname} was able to disable the station's weapons without destroying it. | Judging from the ruins on the moon, the station was once meant to protect a colony, but we found no living inhabitants. | |
Returning from a survey mission, the away team found a huge arachnid spinning webs atop their shuttle. | With a few short phaser bursts, {crewname} burned away the sticky webs, allowing the away team to get into the shuttle. | While flying back to the {shipname}, {crewname} saw an old wreck on a hillside covered in familiar webs. | ||
A group of {factionname} mercenaries ambushed {crewname} and the away team at their camp on a habitable moon. | Once {crewname} stunned the leader of the ambush, his companions quickly took off running. | At {crewname}'s suggestion, the away team relocated their camp to a steep, defensible hill. | ||
While guarding one of our science teams, {crewname} spotted a prisoner fleeing a distant internment camp. | One of the guards wounded the prisoner before {crewname} could stun them. | {crewname} stunned both pursuing guards before they could shoot the prisoner. | The prisoner thanked {crewname} for the rescue and asked us to drop her off on a Class M planet in the next sector. | |
We picked up a distress call from a Varro scout ship that had drifted into a minefield of unknown origin. | While attempting to open a path through the minefield, {crewname} set off a chain reaction that damaged the {shipname}. | The Varro barely thanked us before continuing on their way. Considering how long they were trapped here, it's difficult to blame them. | ||
A wormhole unexpectedly appeared beside the {shipname}, pulling us past its event horizon. | We sustained several hull breaches when {crewname} launched an array of photon charges further into the wormhole, but the resulting shockwave threw us clear. | Unfortunately, the wormhole closed before our scans could determine where it might have taken us. | ||
An away team found themselves caught in the beginning of a stampede as shaggy, equine creatures charged past them. | One of the charging creatures bowled {crewname} over before the away team could get out of their path. | Later, {crewname}'s tricorder picked up a large lifeform in the direction the stampede came from. Perhaps it caused the animals' fright. | ||
While {crewname} and an away team were exploring an abandoned station near {systemname}, they awakened some of its automated defenses. | A swath of particle beams descended from the ceiling, slicing through some of the away team's equipment before {crewname} could disable them. | Judging from its defenses, the station may have been involved in weapons research rather than planetary observation. | ||
A run in with a Druoda ship left an armed anti-matter torpedo embedded in the side of the {shipname}. | While dislodging the torpedo, {crewname} accidentally set off its detonator. It exploded several seconds later, damaging the {shipname}. | We stopped in the shadow of a nearby moon to complete repairs, avoiding the attention of other passing Druoda ships. | ||
Long-range sensors detected a crashed Borg sphere on a Class L planet. Scans indicated that a few of its systems were still operational. | The surviving drones turned some of the sphere's weapons against the {shipname} before {crewname} could destroy it. | Without knowing why the sphere crashed on this planet, we can only be grateful that we did not have to face it at full strength. | ||
While we negotiated for passage through Orion territory, one of the Orion slavers took {crewname} hostage. | {crewname} stunned the Orion, though his knife wounded {crewname} as he fell to the floor. | After seeing {crewname} defeat him, the other Orions let us pass through their territory without incident. | ||
The {shipname} encountered a rift to fluidic space, with dozens of bio-ships streaming through the interdimensional opening. | Several bio-ships damaged the {shipname} before {crewname}'s slow barrage of torpedoes eventually sealed the rift. | We left a warning buoy where the rift had opened and resumed our course, though thankfully we detected no other rifts in the area. | ||
A group of Pakled traders kidnapped {crewname} during an away mission, demanding several of our replicators as ransom. | Caught sneaking into the Pakled camp, {crewname} was forced to fight through it to rescue {crewname}. | The away team is glad to be back aboard the {shipname}, and as a precaution, I'll be sending additional security on our next few away missions. | ||
While sweeping a transport site for an away mission, {crewname} spotted a buried proximity mine. | With no time to get away, {crewname} was tossed against a rock wall by the explosion. | I ordered the security team to report back to the {shipname}. Whatever this site's former inhabitants wanted to protect, they're welcome to keep it. | ||
Unusual sensor readings led {crewname} to a group of Suliban Cabal intruders aboard the {shipname}. | While security teams were capturing the intruders, one camouflaged Suliban wounded {crewname}. | We handed the prisoners over to a group of non-Cabal Suliban, who've promised to keep them in check. | ||
{crewname}'s shuttle was caught in a vicious fire storm while heading down to survey a Class K planet. | The shuttle lost some hull integrity when {crewname} could not keep its shields online. | Once {crewname} and the away team landed on the planet's surface, they waited for the storm to pass before completing their survey. | ||
We sent an away team to trade with a {factionname} settlement only to find it in the middle of a riot. | There were serious injuries on both sides by the time {crewname} could restore order to the scene. | Once tempers cooled, {crewname} learned that the riot was over a recent water shortage. We sent as much water as we could replicate to the settlers. | ||
An away team startled an Antican scavenger while searching for supplies. | {crewname}’s attempts to speak to the scavenger only frightened him further. He drew a disruptor pistol and demanded that the away team leave. | The Antican accepted {crewname}'s apologized[3] for the fright, and the away team promised to stay away from the wreck he was searching. | Though we found nothing of value on the moon, we were able to avoid a fight with an innocent man. | |
A Kreetassan historian asked {crewname} if she could visit the {shipname} and learn about our voyages. | Immediately after arriving, the historian stormed off the {shipname} when {crewname} accidentally referred to her with an informal pronoun. | {crewname} briefed the crew on Kreetassan customs before welcoming the historian aboard, preventing any diplomatic incidents. | We will be passing through a Kreetassan-held sector of space within the next day, so I've asked the entire crew to continue reviewing their customs. | |
A pack of Klingon hunters accused {crewname}'s away team of disrupting their current hunt. | We had to transport the away team back to the {shipname} after {crewname} addressed the hunters’ second-in-command rather than their leader, angering them further. | Identifying the hunters' leader, {crewname} addressed him with the proper respect and convinced him to carry on despite the intrusion. | Diplomatic etiquette can make all the difference between friend or foe on an uncharted world. | |
Upon entering the {systemname} system, the {shipname}'s[3] was bombarded by hundreds of overlapping messages. | Within half an hour, {crewname} traced the messages to a malfunctioning communications relay which {crewname} easily repaired. | The rest of our voyage through the system was relatively quiet. We observed several comets tracing long solar orbits. | ||
The {shipname} intercepted a message from a warning buoy in an unknown language that the universal translator could not translate. | Though {crewname} studied the message to no avail, it may have been a warning about the gravimetric distortions we encountered a few hours later. | Based on {crewname}'s translations, we learned that a nearby star system was riddled with violent gravimetric distortions and charted a course around it. | I've asked {crewname} to continue studying the message when time allows, so that we have a chance to translate other messages left by its creators. | |
The away team ran into a feather-covered biped in a clearing. It would not respond to their attempts to speak with it. | The away team backed away rather than risk a fight when {crewname} could not communicate with the being. | Detailed scans of the planet indicate more of the same lifeforms living throughout its southern hemisphere. | ||
A Kellerun captain hailed the {shipname}, requesting an escort to a planet several systems away. | {crewname} demanded more information before agreeing, a suspicion that proved justified when a Tarellian ship arrived searching for biological weapons in the captain's possession. | The weapons were confiscated by the Tarellians, who demonstrated that their scientists have the means to dispose of them safely. | ||
The away team arrived at a Nechani settlement in the middle of a beautiful but unfamiliar festival. | Not realizing the personal nature of the festival, {crewname} suggested that the away team participate, earning the ire of the settlers. | Recognizing the festival as a religious ceremony, {crewname} advised the away team not to interrupt. | We've added what little information the away team observed to our database on Nechani culture. | |
{crewname} and the away team were surrounded by Kriosian gun runners protecting their newest cargo. | The Kriosians recognized {crewname}'s attempts to stall for time and attacked the away team. Several crew members were wounded before the {shipname} beamed them up. | We left them to go their own way while we continued surveying the rest of the star system. | ||
A frightened {factionname} geologist took {crewname} hostage when the away team stumbled across her camp in the night. | Once {crewname} convinced the geologist that they meant no harm, she freed {crewname} and apologized for the misunderstanding. | {crewname} returned to the {shipname} unharmed, though embarrassed by the experience. | ||
While visiting {systemname}, {crewname} offered to host a reception for diplomats from nearby systems. | {crewname}'s reception was nearly the start of a war when two rival trading factions got into a fight over the canapes. | By arranging plenty of entertainment and keeping old enemies apart, {crewname} ensured that the reception was a success. | By the time we left {systemname}, the {shipname} had made a strong impression on all of the local powers. | |
I sent {crewname} to speak with a group of Romulan and Cardassian soldiers arguing over the mining rights to a gallicite-rich moon. | {crewname}'s suggested compromise was not enough to please either side, who left to fortify their respective camps. | {crewname} negotiated a compromise that split the mining territory equally but convinced each side that they got the more valuable half. | It may only be a matter of time before fighting breaks out between them, but for now, we must continue on our journey. | |
A Prytt ship opened fire on the {shipname}, mistaking us for part of an invasion force. | The Prytt saw {crewname}'s attempts to negotiate as a ruse to lower their defenses. We left the system rather than continue fighting over a misunderstanding. | When our sensors picked up a Kes colony in the next star system, we gave them as wide a berth as the Prytt. | ||
{crewname} returned to the away team after exploring a cavern only for another version of {crewname} to arrive at the same time! | We beamed one of the two up to the {shipname} on {crewname}'s suggestion only to discover that it was an allasomorph. | We retrieved the real {crewname} and left the allosomorph[3] on its home planet. | ||
A Paradan passenger's grief over the loss of his spouse made his skin secretions odorous enough to endanger the crew's health. | The Paradan's emotional and olfactory state slowly improved thanks to {crewname}[3] grief counseling. | I wish we had been able to save the Paradan's spouse when we rescued him. Perhaps with time, he will find some greater peace. | ||
A Qomar diplomat promised the {shipname} passage through one of her people's star systems if we performed a concert for her. | The holograms and musically talented crew members {crewname} assembled put on an impressive show for the Qomar. | Regardless of what the rest of the Qomar think of us, I believe our crew could use more time to spend on their hobbies—musical or otherwise. | ||
While exploring what we thought was an uninhabited Class M planet, {crewname} encountered members of a pre-warp civilization. | The locals were convinced that there was something off about the strangely-dressed away team, and {crewname}'s excuses only confirmed this. | The locals were wary of the away team, but {crewname} was able to explain the away team's unusual attire without raising further suspicions. | We left orbit as soon as possible to minimize further violation of the Prime Directive, but I will still need to submit a report to Starfleet Command. | |
When the {shipname} approached a network of satellites orbiting a Class M planet, a computer program hailed us as their "builders." | We had to depart when {crewname}'s reply revealed that we were not, in fact, the network's builders and the satellites activated their weapons. | The program granted us passage through the star system once {crewname} gathered enough context to convince it that we were, indeed, the network's builders. | The computer's mistake raises many questions about who its true builders were and what they looked like—questions for which we have no answers. | |
When we rescued a group of Arin'Sen from their escape pods, they tried to commandeer the {shipname}. | We were forced to subdue them when {crewname}'s attempts at negotiation failed, though we were able to return them to their home settlement. | Desperate situations make trust difficult, even among good people. We were fortunate that no one on either side was seriously hurt. | ||
While visiting a {factionname} colony, {crewname} was falsely accused of murdering one of their researchers. | With little time to study the local legal system, {crewname} could not convince the court to let {crewname} go. {crewname} spent a week in prison until the real killer was found. | Once the researcher's murderer was captured, the {shipname} was able to leave the colony with all of its crew. | ||
The sudden appearance of a force field trapped the away team inside an empty research station. | The station's command consoles were written in a code {crewname} could not decipher, and {crewname} was forced to blast open a maintenance hatch for them to escape. | {crewname} deciphered the code displayed on the station's command consoles, and once entered, it deactivated the force fields. | The code may have been intended as a test rather than a simple defense mechanism, but we found no inhabitants to confirm our theory. | |
A bioplasmic organism brushed past the {shipname}'s hull, leaving a sludge-like residue behind. | {crewname} led a team to scrape off the residue by hand, but by the time they were through, much of the underlying hull plating needed repair. | {crewname} filled spatial charges with a mild acid and fired them from a shuttle. They quickly ate through the residue without harming the hull. | We kept one small sample of the residue for study. {crewname} believes it may have insulatory properties. | |
Unexpected turbulence knocked a canister of xylathoric acid loose in {crewname}'s shuttle's cargo hold. | The acid ate through several centimeters of deck plating before {crewname} was able to remove it. | Before the acid could cause any damage, {crewname} found an appropriately basic compound and neutralized it. | It was fortunate that the few compounds which could have caused a chain reaction with the acid remained safely in their containers. | |
We opened a channel to a {factionname} research ship that was sailing dangerously close to a dark matter asteroid. | When {crewname} could not help the researchers improve their scans of the asteroid, they insisted on approaching it. Two became ill from the intense radiation it was emitting. | {crewname} developed sensor parameters that would allow them to study the asteroid from a safer distance, and the crew agreed to comply. | Our projections of the asteroid's course indicate no anomalies or inhabited planets in its path, so we made no attempt to divert it. | |
While surveying an oceanic planet, {crewname}'s shuttle was caught in a tropical storm. | With nowhere to find shelter, {crewname} and the shuttle barely escaped the storm's gale force winds in one piece. | The data from {crewname}'s survey suggests that storms such as this one may help distribute nutrients throughout the planet's vast oceans. | ||
A pack of Orion Syndicate ships closed in on the {shipname} while we were attempting hull repairs. | {crewname} could find nowhere for the {shipname} to take cover, and we sustained moderate damage while defending ourselves against the Orions. | Once they left, we completed our hull repairs without any further interruptions. | ||
Navigation became difficult when the {shipname} entered an abnormal dark matter nebula that absorbed all light from surrounding stars. | With {crewname} unable to guide the {shipname} by either stars or limited sensor readings, we spent several days circling inside the nebula before finally breaking free. | Although our time inside the nebula was disorienting, its unique light absorbing properties may inspire some new scientific developments. | ||
The {shipname} visited an Axanar biosphere colony whose atmospheric processors could no longer produce the nitrogen they needed to breathe. | The spare nitrogen {crewname} supplied the colonists with will only buy them a small amount of time. | The Axanar's scientists hope to adapt the exterior atmosphere to breathable levels, if their colony survives long enough. | ||
The away team was taking geological samples from a cave system when the planet began experiencing violent earthquakes. | As {crewname} tried to guide the away team back to the entrance, several of them were injured as parts of the cave system collapsed. | The samples we recovered suggest a long history of geological upheavals on the planet, with massive tectonic shifts occuring[3] every few years. | ||
The {shipname}'s sensors picked up a massive wildfire sweeping towards a Xindi-Arboreal colony. | At {crewname}'s recommendation, we cleared as many trees as we could away from the colony, but many buildings were still lost in the fire. | The colony will recover with time, but it will take decades or even centuries for the forest to grow back. | ||
{crewname}'s sensor scans detected a massive stellar core fragment hurtling towards an inhabited star system. | The entire star system had to be evacuated when {crewname} could find no way to completely divert the core fragment. | From the sensor data we gathered, the core fragment came from a distant star at least 5 billion years old. | ||
A hull breach in an aft shuttle compartment trapped {crewname}'s away team in the cockpit with a dwindling air supply. | {crewname} and the away team used what oxygen they could from the shuttle's environmental suits, but most of them were unconscious by the time the {shipname} rescued them. | We will need to find a source of duranium to finish patching the shuttle's hull. | ||
{crewname} responded to a distress call from a {shipclass} which had half fallen into interphase. | By the time {crewname} had reunited the two halves of the ship, the out-of-phase crew members had become delirious. | The crew told us they had passed through a subspace anomaly while cloaked. The interaction between their cloak and the anomaly most likely caused the accident. | ||
The away team was returning to their shuttle with a collection of unusual mineral deposits when a bird swooped down at them. | Realizing that the deposits the away team had taken were actually eggs, {crewname} set them down for their parent to reclaim. | Though we were unable to communicate with the creature, {crewname} left some replicated food near the "nest" as an apology. | ||
{crewname} found a fur-covered lifeform on a stormy planet, half-dead from hunger. | Scans of the lifeform's organs identified it as an herbivore, and {crewname} scrounged up enough plant life to restore it to health. | As the hemisphere's winter sets in, food will only grow more scarce for every living thing. | ||
A group of Komar began flocking towards the {shipname} as we passed through a nebula. | When {crewname} could not lure the Komar away from the {shipname}, one of them latched onto a crew member before we could drive them away with phaser fire. | After clearing the nebula, we warned two approaching ships to stay away from it. They promised to spread the word among their people. | ||
The {shipname}'s sensors began picking up subspace interference in a mostly uninhabited star system. | {crewname} traced it to a {factionname} sensor array hidden on a nearby moon and compensated for the array's transmissions. | Once clear of the interference, we received some welcome personal transmissions from Starfleet. | ||
A chemical fire broke out in the cargo bay while the fire suppression system was under repair. | It took mere minutes for {crewname} to douse the fire with non-reactive chemicals rather than water. | In light of the accident, I've ordered fire drills for the crew in the morning. | ||
{crewname} found a wounded quadruped huddled in a cave. | The frightened creature only fled deeper into the cave when {crewname} tried to treat its injuries. | Recognizing that such a creature might be allergic to triptacederine, {crewname} treated it with another analgesic to ease its pain. | Its wounds suggested that it was the victim of hunters, though we found no campsites or buildings near the creature's lair. | |
As soon as a visiting Xanthan dignitary brought her pet marmot on board, half of the crew began experiencing difficulty breathing. | It took many of sickbay’s supplies and much of {crewname}’s time to treat the crew’s symptoms until our visitor departed. | Refining the ship's environmental systems allowed {crewname} to filter out allergens so the crew could breathe easily again. | We apparently made a good impression on the Xanthan despite the crew's discomfort during her stay. | |
After visiting a settlement that had a recent outbreak of Levodian flu, the away team requested permission to return to the {shipname}. | When neither {crewname} nor the transporter's biofilter picked up any signs of infection, the away team resumed their duties on the {shipname} only to fall ill within hours. | When {crewname} reviewed the transporter's biofilter readings and saw that several of them were carrying the virus, {crewname} transported the away team into quarantine. | The flu was easily treated, though the infected crew members had to spend several restless hours in sickbay. | |
An away team began experiencing severe stomach cramps as soon as they set foot in a Class M planet's rainforest. | Unable to pinpoint the source of their nausea, {crewname} ordered the away team back to the {shipname} before their symptoms worsened. | Perhaps this unwelcoming environment is responsible for keeping the rainforest free of would-be inhabitants. | ||
Halfway across a steep path, {crewname} slipped and broke an arm. | {crewname} could not stabilize the compound fracture, leaving {crewname} in a great deal of pain on their way back to the shuttle. | The two of them were able to return to the shuttle once {crewname} set the bone and fashioned a splint out of spare supplies. | After receiving proper treatment in sickbay, {crewname}'s arm should be as good as new in a matter of days. | |
A {factionname} geologist passed away unexpectedly in the night while the {shipname} was transporting her and her team to a trading outpost. | Some of the geologist's team members began accusing one another of murder when {crewname}'s autopsy proved inconclusive. | We took a short detour to deliver them and the body to a {factionname} settlement for a proper burial. | ||
{crewname} sustained second-degree burns when the away team's shuttle made an emergency landing on a deserted planet. | Without the proper supplies to treat {crewname}'s burns, {crewname} could only provide an analgesic to reduce the pain. | With help from some of the local plant life, {crewname} created a dermaline gel substitute for {crewname}'s burns. | We recovered our crew and the shuttle in time for {crewname} to receive more thorough treatment in sickbay. | |
The {shipname} found a stasis pod drifting through an asteroid field, its life support systems failing. | When {crewname} tried to wake up the {factionname} occupant, she went into shock and had to be resuscitated. | Our new passenger had been in stasis for decades after being diagnosed with a fatal respiratory condition. Fortunately, we now have the technology to cure it. | ||
The away team found an injured Excalbian among the wreckage of its ship, its lifesigns rapidly fading. | {crewname} could not stabilize the Excalbian's silicon-based circulatory system in time to save it. | When departing the planet, the away team's shuttle was struck by lightning. They were fortunate not to meet the same fate as the Excalbian's ship. | ||
An away team discovered a mysterious spherical device in a long-abandoned outpost. When scanned, it emitted a beam that erased their memories. | The associational therapy {crewname} prescribed had limited success. Fortunately, the away team's recovery accelerated the further away we got from the outpost. | The rest of the crew has been recording more personal logs than usual since the incident, hoping to preserve their memories for posterity in case they are ever lost. | ||
The away team was attacked by a macrovirus while gathering plant samples from a Class L moon. | {crewname}'s phaser fire scattered the virus, but {crewname} could find no way to deliver the amount of antigen it would take to destroy it. | {crewname} dosed the away team with high levels of antigen so that when the macrovirus attacked them, it was "infected" by the cure. | We've left a warning buoy cautioning any future visitors to either avoid the moon or use environmental suits when exploring it. | |
The {shipname} reached a region of space filled with dangerously high levels of omicron radiation but too vast to easily sail around. | Since {crewname} could not inoculate the crew against such extensive radiation, we all went into stasis pods for the duration of the trip. | Near the edge of the irradiated sector, our sensors picked up the debris of an ancient research station. Whatever they were studying may have been the cause of this radiation. | ||
{crewname} returned from a diplomatic away mission to {systemname} with a case of Ornaran plague. | The virus behind the plague proved too elusive for {crewname} to cure. {crewname} only survived thanks to a passing merchant who sold us a dose of felicium. | We contacted {systemname} to warn them of the disease, and they were able to stop the outbreak from becoming an epidemic. | ||
When a {factionname} physicist went into respiratory arrest, we transported him directly to sickbay. | {crewname} had to suppress the patient's immune system to allow a transplant from one of his siblings. | Only time will tell how the physicist's recovery will go, but I'm glad we were able to offer what help we could. | ||
An away team became delusional after being infected with tropolisine on a mission. | By the time {crewname} devised a treatment, the infected crew members had barricaded themselves in their quarters and had to be stunned by security. | I reassured the apologetic away team that they were not responsible for their threats and actions while infected. | ||
A Satarran snuck aboard the {shipname} disguised as an ensign, but phasers had little effect on its form. | A security team was forced to subdue it in hand-to-hand combat when {crewname} could find no other way to stun it. | We used a gaseous compound developed by {crewname} to knock the intruder, and only the intruder, unconscious. | We screened every other crew member who came aboard with the supposed "ensign" and confirmed that all of them were who they claimed to be. | |
A neural virus infected {crewname} during an away mission, and when transmitted to the rest of the ship, sent nearly the entire crew into a state of paranoia. | While {crewname} was struggling to implement quarantine protocols, one crew member escaped the docked ship and infected several people on a station. | It took several days for {crewname} to isolate a cure with most of the crew incapacitated, but we're all grateful to be back to our posts. | ||
Inside the ice-bound wreckage of an Andorian ship, we discovered its crew suspended in a stasis field. | Degradation in the stasis field prevented {crewname} from resuscitating most of the crew, but we were able to revive its captain. | According to the captain, their ship crashed on this planet nearly twenty years ago. It's remarkable that the stasis field remained relatively intact for so long. |
