Charting out Omega-11, avoiding that giant sun. I came upon a Deterrence ship. A Corvo-Class. Considering I'm hearing Albert go on about finding out how to gain information from these anomalies, having the ship right there to do it was perfect. Got a little demonstration from the DTR pilot and then gave them my services to sell some Map-Data to them. Let's hope they call back.

Code:
[28.01.2022 11:22:38] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: ?: Ship detected. No hostile IFF. Foreign ship identify yourself.
[28.01.2022 11:22:45] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Hmm?
[28.01.2022 11:23:06] Tip: Did you end up lost? Can't find your way back? Use the Interactive NavMap on our forums.
[28.01.2022 11:23:11] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Uhh, Halpert Kennedy of the Starflier Pulsar.
[28.01.2022 11:23:42] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Not a hostile, you can calm down.
[28.01.2022 11:23:47] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: *in background* ?: Sir, the IFF checks out. They're freelancer, small light fighter. No threat to us.
[28.01.2022 11:24:11] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Deterrence... you sound familiar.
[28.01.2022 11:24:25] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: I haven't met you before, have I?
[28.01.2022 11:25:23] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: Paulos: Stand down, defcon green. I am Paulos, combat commander of this vessel. Since you are not hostile,
[28.01.2022 11:25:33] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: Paulos: I will take my leave.
[28.01.2022 11:26:05] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: *in the background* Paulos: Ok, let the Professor out the room... He can do his thing.
[28.01.2022 11:27:05] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: *scratching, thumping and clattering sounds* ?: Hmm... What's a Halpert... Why do I care? Oh a ship?
[28.01.2022 11:27:21] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: ?: Oh hello there. Are you here for the anomalies too?
[28.01.2022 11:27:23] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that.
[28.01.2022 11:27:47] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: This bright light? I've found a handful of these across Sirius.
[28.01.2022 11:28:11] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: ?: You know where there are more? Please, tell me immediately.
[28.01.2022 11:28:12] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Want to know more, so I can forward the information back to Starflier Base.
[28.01.2022 11:28:49] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: *muffled conversation*
[28.01.2022 11:28:50] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Ah, hold on a moment. You've got a Corvo-Class...
[28.01.2022 11:29:14] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Let's make an agreement of sorts.
[28.01.2022 11:29:35] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: ?: Ah... Seems I have been impolite. Sorry, sorry. Agreement?
[28.01.2022 11:30:14] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: I'd like to know how to gather information from these anomalies. My ship's not equipped for such a thing.
[28.01.2022 11:31:06] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: ?: Ah. That is easy enough to do. But first, let me correct my ealier mistake.
[28.01.2022 11:31:40] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: ?: My name is Milo, don't worry about other names, they are inefficient. You may call me Milo, Professor or Professor Milo.
[28.01.2022 11:31:49] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Milo it is then.
[28.01.2022 11:32:22] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: So, show me how that Corvo collects the info, and I'll show you another spot where I've found these lights.
[28.01.2022 11:32:25] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: Milo: Right so what do you want to know, are you also interested in these quantum anomalies?
[28.01.2022 11:33:13] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: Oh, now this is where is gets fun. What sort of data you get depends on what systems you have installed.
[28.01.2022 11:33:28] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Albert, our resident scientist, is interested in them.
[28.01.2022 11:34:12] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: For example you have the instability analyser, or a spin reader, or you can use a gravitational probe, or even magnetic...
[28.01.2022 11:34:48] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: *waffles on for far too long naming weird scientific equipment*
[28.01.2022 11:35:08] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Buzz words. Yay, this is why I like words like "shield" and "joystick"
[28.01.2022 11:35:42] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: ...I mean I suppose... Oh, OH! I'm sorry. I just get so into my topic.
[28.01.2022 11:36:04] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: Umm. Let's see... Layman's terms... Umm...
[28.01.2022 11:36:12] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: I've noticed.
[28.01.2022 11:37:05] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Huh, another light behind you.
[28.01.2022 11:37:10] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: Well... Basically, you install the types of scanners and devices and hook them up to the big dish like scanner on the front.
[28.01.2022 11:38:21] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: Then you aim said dish with this "joystick" and tell the computers to make science happen.
[28.01.2022 11:38:37] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: I already like the words you're using.
[28.01.2022 11:38:47] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: Let me show you. Though the data I receive will be for my research, so won't help you at all.
[28.01.2022 11:39:07] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Be my guest.
[28.01.2022 11:39:54] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: So I just turn on these... Aim this here... and... Oh dear...
[28.01.2022 11:40:11] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: Umm... Oh... I forgot to plug it in...
[28.01.2022 11:40:19] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: There!
[28.01.2022 11:41:16] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: There!
[28.01.2022 11:41:27] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: Now the bit you will like.
[28.01.2022 11:41:48] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: Crew, we're done here. Close the anomaly.
[28.01.2022 11:41:49] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: So, you stipped a layer to reveal the inside of the star. Interesting.
[28.01.2022 11:42:25] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: Oh it's not a star, it's a quantum space time anomaly... Oh... Layman's terms... Yes.
[28.01.2022 11:42:29] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Quite the demonstration, and exactly what I needed to record.
[28.01.2022 11:42:59] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Alright, well. You've done your part.
[28.01.2022 11:43:12] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: So now I shall keep up mine, follow me.
[28.01.2022 11:43:18] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: We strip it back. Analyse it then close it off. With violence.
[28.01.2022 11:44:14] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: Where are we going? This IS exciting.
[28.01.2022 11:44:39] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: Till now, we have only known of these ones and the ones in Omicron Lost.
[28.01.2022 11:45:33] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Ah well that's where I was going!
[28.01.2022 11:45:49] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Suppose I could share the others I have found.
[28.01.2022 11:45:56] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: Oh yes, we know of them. We have not much data on them though.
[28.01.2022 11:46:13] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Have you ever seen the ones in Lost?
[28.01.2022 11:46:48] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: Yes, that is how I found the Corsairs. I used to be a freelancer, you know.
[28.01.2022 11:47:23] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: According to my own cartography records... Liberty, Omega, Omicron and Tau.
[28.01.2022 11:47:41] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Four locations I have seen them in.
[28.01.2022 11:47:50] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: Liberty and Tau... Hmm. I'll need a permit to go out there.
[28.01.2022 11:48:21] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: I can sell you system reports of both locations. So you know what you're getting yourself into.
[28.01.2022 11:49:08] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: Yes, yes. I want to know what colours appear, their frequency of appearance and any other information you have on them.
[28.01.2022 11:49:38] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: P: ...And hostile forces in the areas. I'm not letting you go out there Professor...
[28.01.2022 11:49:38] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: My scanners aren't that sensitive. Though I'm sure your one can handle it.
[28.01.2022 11:49:59] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Let's head into the Omicrons, don't like it out here.
[28.01.2022 11:50:07] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: M: COLOURS, man... Use your eyes.
[28.01.2022 11:51:15] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: P: Sorry, Mr Halpert. The Professor is... Excited. We'll let him have a cup of tea in his room for a while.
[28.01.2022 11:51:31] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Understood.
[28.01.2022 11:51:47] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Good to see a research vessel around. Learned quite a bit.
[28.01.2022 11:52:32] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: P: Not a problem. We are interested in your system reports. But I will need to go through official channels for the budget.
[28.01.2022 11:52:54] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: You know how to contact us, once you sort your financials out.
[28.01.2022 11:54:45] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Hmm, I got a ping. From an unknown source. Kinda curious, gonna go check it out.
[28.01.2022 11:55:20] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Godspeed, Milo. I'll be hearing from your organisation soon.
[28.01.2022 11:55:46] DTR-CRV>Posidonius: P: I will pass your regards on to the Professor. Thanking you for your time.
