Times have changed since the last encounter with Rheinland ships. The Texas system seems a bit quiet so I decided to bring the ship to the capital, New York. In this time, I decided to take interest in Nomad research and to learn more about these species as to why they are hostile to us humans. On a patrol to California, I made contact with a friend of my late father who studies Nomads. I asked him if I could help in someway in their research. Their answer, "Please equip this special device, all instructions are inside the manual." I thought it would be hard to find a Nomad but with somekind of luck I manage to test out the device on 3 specimens. I was questioned by the LSF as to why I had this device so I sent them this: <<<<Attaching 3 files>>>>>

Greetings Directors of the LSF,
I am creating this secure communications channel as per request of Deputy Director Deus. It is about a technology developed by the scientists at Willard, it is device that lets users communicate with the Nomads without affecting nor influencing the user's mind, sort of like a protection.
Now you may question in the first place why I have such a device on me. A some point during a patrol to California. A transmission came from Willard saying, "This is Willard Research Station to LNS-Douglas, we need you here ASAP. We have a special device that we want you to use." They call this device the Telepathic Messaging Receiver, short for TMR
Since New York has been increasingly visited by Nomad Morphs, they gave it to me for the purpose of learning more about the Nomad species' behavior to why they are hostile to us. they believe that these Morphs are in their basic stage that learn and gather as much information as they can.
Subject Experiment #1: Namtar, Nomad Morph
I was at Norfolk shipyard when suddenly the scanners pick up a blue blimp(By the way this device makes a *ping* sound when it detects a Nomad signature) I then found a Nomad at the entrance at Z21 minefield. I know protocol says we have to kills them but I had to take the chance to try the new device out. By using this device, I can easily talk to it like having a conversation to a person. Firstly, I spoke words of peace to it. The Nomad get angry when humans get close it so I back off a little bit. At this time, I tried to learn why they are hostile to us. It's answer was that Sirius Sector is their home and that we invade their home. I tried to befriend the Nomad but it seems his mind was too angry to change. He shortly left afterwards.
There is another encounter with another one but I am awaiting your thoughts about this before transmitting the details. Please tell me what you think.
Now This one is very promising, I was at Planet Manhattan at that time when I picked it up on scanners about 14k from my position. I ordered the ship to go up and there it was a Nomand Morph. It was bit weird that I chased it all the way around the system. I tried to convinced it that I meant no harm. We were entering the Badlands when I decided to end the chase. I was returning to West Point when it suddenly came back but at a distance of 14k. We exchanged words and it seemed willing to establish friendly relations. The conversation continued for about 10 minutes until I informed Dep. Director Deus about the situation. He decided the put the Nomad to sleep. What happened next is that the Nomad ran away followed by Deus. After that he questioned me about why I was talking to it. And this is how the project came to be.

Subject Experiment #3: Osilon, Nomad Morph
This one was found near the edges of the helium field in Penn. I secured the area so that nobody would see my experiment. I immediately ask it's location. And I got an answer which I attached to this file. Here are some logs from my experiment:
After that scanners showed a Freelancer with an Outcast, he talking about some bounty on me so they went to collect it. I had to interrupt my experiment and leave the area. I was surprised that the Nomad followed me. I realized this and took advantage of taking it to a secure location. I ask some few questions and it eventually left at a surprisingly fast speed I have never seen. Within seconds it was 7k just as I engaged cruise.
