You won't believe what just happened to me... I was in Omega-41 surveying the proton star, commissioned by the Empire to fetch some more data on the impending collapse. I fire the probe, and all of a sudden a bright flash, all comms go down and my ship's sent spinning into a hyperspace vortex. I knew this job was dangerous, but mio dio what was that...!?
Anyways, as I come to be, I try to communicate with the head of science on Planet New Athens, but it says the channel failed to open up. Silence. I open the starchart, but there's nothing there. Can't plot a course to the New Athens, because there's no such system. I try to hail ships around me, and they have the old "Corsair" transponder instead of "Armada". I'm not sure what happened, whether I got lost in time or space, but I kept trying to find a way home. I went to Crete, at least that path was still correct. All kinds of new stations I've never seen before. Skiros, Rhodes, some kind of Order-looking battleship. That's not the Hispanic Empire I came from!
So I hail the planet, they refer to me as "Unknown Vessel" and send me off with a warning. This is a disaster! I didn't know what to do! And my ship couldn't withstand many more jumps, it'd fall apart soon! I had to dock somewhere... So I came here, the closest thing I could find that still looks familiar. Glad the Omicron Theta jump hole and Freeport 9 stayed the same.
Apparently, my dying research ship was worth quite the fortune to that guy over there. All standard equipment if you ask me, but I kept the hyperspace modules to myself. He said he'll give me a bigger and better ship in exchange. Even offered a ride to Corfu Base in Sprague's orbit where he parked it. Never heard of that station in my life! I can't even ask anyone what's going on, they all say everything's normal!
Anyways, grazie for the drink amico. Seems like I got a new universe to explore, new stars to get used to... Honestly, I'm excited. But also terrified. I'll never see home again, so I'll have to find a new home among these stars. I'll come again soon. Ciao!

Subject's ship has been brought to █████ ███ ██████ for investigation and reverse-engineering. The technology, materials, and even the molecular structure are entirely foreign to the ██████ R&D division personnel. Some of the components appear to have an unstable molecular sturcure and have been therefore put into quarantine chambers. The engine, scanner, tractor beam and weapons can all be found in floor ███ of the research facility, in chambers ██, ██, ██ and ██ respectively.
Monitoring device has been pinned onto the subject by our agent. We have not interacted with him since. His molecular structure seems to have adapted to our dimensional frequency over time and reverbed itself. We still have much to learn from this subject.

S_A01: What do you mean incompatible? The slots are right there! These are standard hyperspace modules, nothing too special!
?: Sorry pal, these pieces of tech can't go in there. Look, you see that socket? Yours has a different pattern, you're gonna need an adapter.
S_A01: Huh, that's odd... And where would one get such an adapter?
?: I dunno, I just do the mounting/unmounting duty, getting my hands dirty y'know. But there's a fella Zoner who might be able to help you out with these. Go to Omicron Delta and look for Adam Hood in the Lab Reactor complex.
S_A01: Delta you say... I'm kinda new around here, how do I get there?
?: Best way's through Omicron Gamma, then you head to Kappa and Delta. There you'll find the Lab Reactor complex, in a LaGrange point between Nauru and Tuvalu. Beware of the Corsairs though, they're not so kind to visitors. You can slip by through the nebula, assuming they're not patrolling at the time.
S_A01: Don't worry amico, I'm well familiar with them. Grazie!
