My name is Commander Lincoln Phoenix. I represent my benefactor Mr.Universe involving a project that we require your expertise on. We are currently constructing a vessel that will be capable of traveling far beyond our known sector of space. To that end the vessel we are building to do this must be able to overcome all the obstacles that it may come across.
We have a large list of equipment that must be installed into the ship we are currently constructing, and after much deliberating and reviewing your history we feel that you might be best suited for being able to provide us with some advanced scanning equipment. Since we will be traveling a great distance being able to scan our surroundings the farther we can scan the greater ability we will have to plot a safe course through space. On top of this should we run into any hostiles we may wish to avoid then any such equipment would prove to be useful in that endeavor.
Since this will be our first correspondence I might add that we are fellow zoner's and hope that in the very least if you wish for us to meet in person we can accommodate such a request. We appreciate your time and look forward to your response.

Konnichiwa Commander Phoenix Lincoln: I am Commander Susubo Motoko of the Abh Heavy Goddess Research Vessel Shizuha, and one the head researchers for the Abh Research Group. I will say our interest is peaked. Our Goddess Class vessels are equipped for just the thing you are wanting to do. They have been outside of known space on several stellar cartography missions. I am sure some of the equipment we have developed for these missions could be adapted to work on other crafts as long as the onboard systems are compatible. If not we would need detailed operational specs as to the OS, the operational gain of your antenna array, and signal bandwidths and transmission requirements. But these are details we can go over in a face to face over some Sake or Tea if you prefer.
We also do have a system we use the Mk IV D.S.R.P. Deep Space Recon Probes. This system has proven to be very effective in giving a tactical overview of surrounding space. Each probe is a self-contained passive listening post/scanner that can operate at 300 GHz through 3 THz. I only mention this one system now because we have already launched a few hundred probes out of known space and they may be useful. Also, any that you launch may come in handy for our further exploration of those regions.
I shall not take up any more of your time prattling on. If we can be of any service to you just bring in your list and we will endeavor to fulfill the required equipment.
My dear fellow Zoner i much appreciate your prompt reply,
Unfortunately We are on a tight schedule and are planning the work to finish as quickly as possible with the construction, but I'm confident we can work with you to get the systems installed in a timely manner. The OS that we plan on installing will be an A.I. designed by Professor Nerva Regis so anything you have i'm sure the A.I. wouldn't have issues making the systems compatible with the rest of the ship. Also, since this ship will be one of a kind, and perhaps never be another like it, the systems are being customized to be in working order with anything that we decide to install on the ship.
We have reached out to a number of parties for different types of systems we plan on implementing and should you wish to discuss this further we can either meet in person at the place of your choice or at Livadia Shipyard. This is where we hope to construct the ship if the administrator should permit us, which he should be giving us an answer soon.
Since you would be the expert in this area of expertise I will leave the recommendations up to you. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Commander Phoenix Lincoln we are not familiar with this AI you are installing on the your vessel. these systems we make do not plug and play and require the installation of the hardware that the time of building or in a retrofit that takes as much in the case of a retrofit of one month. We are not aware of any AI that can just make something work by simply having it in the system. To make a system work you need matching components so you do not burn out transceivers. and other crucial systems. If you are looking for a quick fix system I am sorry we can not help you. But. If you are looking for a lifetime of service with minimal maintenance then yes we can help you.
I would like you to forward to Professor Nerva Regis to get in touch with us on this AI system. We need to see if there will be total compatibility. There is details need to know like what kind of Bus will be for the integration to this system. I can forward all the required arrays needed to operate these systems properly.
I will make sure that my next message sent to Professor Nerva Regis includes our last correspondence. I was contacted about this already today by the Professor so this will work well with my next response to the Professor. I am grateful that you are willing to work with me on this request. The system we wish to integrate first and foremost will be completely state of the art as well as custom designed. So should you need to confirm the systems are compatible it shouldn't be an issue if you were to help oversee the installation of it. Also this vessel has a high risk of not completing its mission, and even if it should I do not believe its systems would be of much use after this trip. I expect to decommission the vessel upon completion of this trip anyways.
I hope that for this reason that in any case anything we design at least is able to withstand a years worth of operation. If needed I can arrange some type of meeting with the 3 of us to discuss the details. I look forward to talking with you again soon.
I know it has been some time since we have spoke but we have finally gotten the situation handled and planned out. Here is the recent communication with Nerva Regis should you wish to review it. Although i will be following his wishes and not installing the AI core until the ship is completed my engineers and technicians tell me that the system will be completely autonomous and not effect any other system. All systems are currently being designed to be independent of the other for security reasons and thus will not prohibit functions of the others. Unfortunately it seems that we are not to share any schematics about this AI but I can assure you anything you install will have no issues with it.
My hope is that whatever previous reservations you have had that we have put them now to rest. Should you decide that you cannot help us it would help us to know so that we can make other arrangements. However, should you agree to help we are offering generous compensation. For now I look forward to your response.
