On a recent mapping of the Kansas system with my Gunboat in the Turtle Creek Nebula I have spotted a wreck called the Rattelsnake a what seem to be a very heavy fighter not unlike what the Bounty Hunters use. In that same instance I have come across a rundown gate. The dating system on the Gunboat could not isolate the age of the gate but from a visual inspection it seems to hundreds maybe thousands of years old. Docking indicators show it is a active gate, but attempts to dock with it failed. This prompted me to return to the docks in Manhattan and retrieve my personal craft being small in size. I manage to make a proximity map from data on the gunboat using celestial bodies as my fixed references, seeing the scanners where showing nothing there which makes this a even more interesting find. Upon returning to the same spot docking attempt was successful. There must be a limiter on the gate. This system that I have been warped to is not even in our known space beyond the outer rim a much further distance then even the trip to recover the Shizuha. There is no know celestial bodies to reference from. The radiation here is brutal and suggest any return to this system plenty of nanobots are in supply.
It is a binary system with what seem to be white dwarfs. and three planetary bodies in the distance I can see a station. For now I am going to stay put till I get further readings then proceed with astrocartography. I would rather be exploring this system aboard the Goddess Shizuha. But! I highly doubt she would not be allowed to dock much in the same way as the Gunboat.

I have all relevant data about the location of the Gate in Kansas and what has been found this far in that distant system.
Prepare to copy:
Location of Gate: Kansas Map actual 2/7 F/5 within Turtle Creek Nebula From PA JH approach Nebula at a -12 pitch with center alignment on Nebula. The gate will not show up on any sensors.
Unknown System Relevant Data Using Current Mapping Layout:
Exit Gate: 7/7, E/3
Station : F/1 3-4
Jump Hole: 1/9 D-E
Incomplete Lane System running between Jump Hole and Main Gate a total of 3 single lane rings almost look like a one way system
Planet Bodies: 3 uninhabitable due to the brutal radiation those 2 white dwarfs are working over time.
About the station it seems to be manned by humans of different factions . But! It seem to be filled to resupply Nomads which is strange seeing the station is not hostel. I did not notice any strange behavior in them. As tempting as it maybe, the nomad tech would go along way in developing newer forms of weapons , I decided to pass on purchasing any of it seeing the uptight nature of the houses and nomad tech. they manage to supply with nanobots for the trip back to "normal space" . But I guess when you spend all you time in house space, you really have no understanding for the science of it, you will always have a boogey man to scare people. I will have to make a few trip back to that system in the future.
This concludes my report of the system and should be back soon

Greeting fellow members,
Thanks for the report Motoko, keep up the good work and forward more informaton to us about that system. We would like to see what we can gather from their and possibly to see about getting some nomad tech to study. Being we haven't recently been in any fights with the nomads in quite some time, having the tech would prove useful in future research projects.
As for Aya, we have been informed of your current request for a new chair and have decided to grant it. Proceed to Ames ASAP, for installing off the new chair. As for the regulation regarding movie watching, we have decided to allow it for the time being, as long as nothing becomes overlooked or missions are not delayed.
The Izanami will be undocking in two days for system checks and flight checks.

I have returned to the Shizuha and have pictures from the exploration of the system I was not able to include them during the first transmission do to data damage from the radiation but was able to reconstruct them in one of the research labs.
this is a external shot from a drone cam launched from the Gunboat it give you a idea the scope of this gate with out the size restriction the Shizuha could travel that gate with no problem. But the size is as well
concerning. This gate was for Battleship size vessels.
This is the Gate on the other side at near 20k away this gate is a one way in only
This is the station we can assume that the station is of nomad origins just by the exterior inspection
This is one of the three lane rings as mentioned is for one way travel since seeing the lack of two way traffic
Finally the Jump hole. I entered this hole not knowing where it would lead me. BUT!! It is for SCIENCE and the job of a researcher. This JH exits into Inverness and leaves you no way back .
With this system having travel only in one direction it rise the question where the nomads coming from. the station is almost like a lay over not unlike the Freeports

The diplomacy with the house spaces are as follows
Kusari: we have licensing for the Izanami and Shizuha as was posted earlier
Liberty: we have permission with escort but still waiting to see if they will grant a open agreement on the contingency we ask for escorts and not attempt to enter otherwise
Rheinland: Pffft they can not even get on the same page with in the agencies or protocols i doubt they could conduct a escort of lemmings unless they had beer attached to them. i admit i had insulted them after this captain unleashed on me for not know what i was doing...............i think Rheinland is in such a disarray they are promoting boson mates to captian. so travel through rheinland is a non-starter. the doofus want us to dismount our weapons not power them down but dismount them it is not like there is a Shipwright R Us that you can pop into and remount weapons of that size. which is why i doubt that captain could pass our test to be a janitor.
So this is the progress at this point......... it takes all that i have not to blast rheinland interests to dust but they not worth the energy to power a bio-scanner i am going to leave the britonian parley to Bato he need to earn his keep at some point
Kusari and Liberty have been nothing but professional and we need all personal treat them with the upmost professionalism as for rheinland i think you know my standing on that
oh also i had contact the IRG for one of the power cores they produce to have mounted on the Shizuha for a trial run and have sent the down payment and have yet to hear from them. we may have to seek court action is they do not respond some time soon.
i have a led on carrier deck enhancements that i am looking into as well the refits are going to be around 100 mill a deck. we are going to have to pay Aya overtime to raise the funds.

REPORT........ weellllll I have been running these Station thingies to Renzu and H Fuel on the return.
..so far nothing out the ordinary . Oh Oh oh I did get my new seat WOOHOOOO no more sticky tape and squeaky chair. Hope you did not want the old one I jettison the old one........ towards the sun!!!!!!.
So I will be running those station stuffs till they run out of them it pays............PRETTY GOOOOOOD
oh oh oh can I get a transport with...... some...... WEAPONS!!!!!.........Pew pew pew pew

Thanks for the system scan Commander. We have received all information and are transcribing it to ship logs. With any luck we can hopefully become friends with the system inhabitants.
We have also received your report on the docking modules, as of now your the only ship with them and the Izanami is still having problems with its docking area, but hopefully sometime soon we can solve that problem.
We will pass the information to Bato to continue with relations with Reinland and hope we can get on better terms with them.
As for Aya, we need more funds to refit our bigger ships. Deep space is putting some wear on our systems and it would be a good idea to at least get one of our research vessels updated to new equipment. The Tachicoma is still not responding to recall command so until then. Aya is the main source of income for the group.
That is all...more information will be sent at a later date.

I am getting to the point that I am going to unleash the guns of the Shizuha and fire on anything that is moving in space. the arrogance of groups is wearing on my good nature.

Subject: Our New Project
Konnichiwa Main Body
I have announced a new project for the Group to undertake the development of a power supply to power the Dimensional Shift project. Seeing after a near 1 month wait a pompous ass of a doctor at IRG rejected our request for a power supply on the ground of some higher moral plain. Scared that we might rip a hole in space and every one will get sucked into it. That idea is not half bad thou and that doctor would be the first to explore it. Morals pffft they sell those power supplies to military and freelancers that give less then detailed reasons for them other then I need one. So we are going to build our own. The IRG doctor telling us that "it better to research it on paper then build it". Pffft I say to that. We have working systems to this day throwing balls, books, cats and dogs through it from on end off the ship to the other and hardly ever a mishap. With the one exception. The incident with the bubble gum and the turtle. But hay at least it showed us that two objects can not enter the portal at the same time. Never thought a turtle could bounce. Any way I thought I would let you know this.
