Your crew jumps at the opportunity. As acting captain, you offer to lead the away team in their investigation. Commander Day helps you select your team. Wayne Day: Mr Styles, Mr Xiang, you're with the captain. +Comm+ Day to Engineering, Mr Gillard, meet the captain in shuttlebay one. Chief medical officer James Morrow is also called to the team. Within minutes, they board the shuttlecraft and are bound for the nebula. Day remains on the bridge while Tiffany Hunter tracks your progress, with J'Cin now at tactical and Aldur Johansen at science. Aboard the shuttlecraft, your team reports as you enter the nebula. Doug Gillard: Entering nebula now. Boosting communications. We should have no problem communicating through the nebula. Vex Xiang: I am detecting high concentrations of kelvinase attaching to our hull. The shields have little effect in blocking the particles. Doug Gillard: If they collect in the impulse manifolds we may overload the engines. Recommend we remain at one third impulse. The shields may not be sufficient to deflect the gas.
