Readings suggest that the object is of similar nature to the Azurite we've gathered from the structure in the nebula, which has spawned some theories that this is some sort of power cell for the dreadnought. But that's all they are - theories. But since the more specialized sensor equipment is still being set up and calibrated... I'm sure we've got a better idea soon. Are there any old IRG archives that mention an object like this?" He joins Martin at the glass, hoping he'd be able to shed some light on the unknown object's purpose.
