STELLAR DATE: 3266048 / 01.14.4230 (Adjusted Gregorian)
LOCATION: ISS Andromeda
REGION: Kapteyn’s Star System
“If I were hiding out in this system—and I don’t know why I’d ever do something like that—I’d maintain a lookout here.” Commander Brandt pointed at a small dwarf planet orbiting the star at a distance of 4.5AU.
The Andromeda was just under 6AU from the stellar primary and 3AU prograde from the planet Brandt was pointing at.
“With our braking wash pointed directly at the star there’s no way they’d spot us then,” Lieutenant Smith said.
“We haven’t picked anything up from that world,” Tanis said. “Either they haven’t seen us, or no one is there.”
“I have to say,” Brandt shook her head, “this is pretty weird. We ignored this stupidly named star for over two thousand years and then the very same year we show up, someone else is mucking around in here? With a mining platform no-less?”
“Yeah, it smells,” Tanis agreed. “That’s why we’re out here taking a look. I can promise you one thing, whoever these people are, there’s no way they’re expecting the Intrepid.”
“Let’s hope not. Though, from what I can see about how things have evolved over the last century, interstellar traffic is increased a lot, people may be more prepared for visitors than they used to be.”
“Traffic may be up, but it’s all to and from Sol. There’s not a lot of ships moving between other systems, with the exception of Alpha Centuari, Sirius, and Tau Ceti,” Trist added. “Certainly nothing through here, and definitely not anything from where we were.”
“No point in speculating further on why they’re here, other than asking them,” Tanis said. “The Intrepid is still weeks away from entering its polar orbit. I think we should continue our plan to loop around the star, and then break away to swing past that little world.”
“Are you sure we should hide ourselves so much?” Trist asked. “I mean, I’m the thief here, but I can’t help wonder if we just announce ourselves maybe we’ll get a warm welcome.”
Tanis leaned back in her chair. Perhaps Trist was right, she had become jaded over the years, expecting everything to be a threat.
“You may be right, Trist, but it’s not a chance I can take. I do promise that I’ll try diplomacy before violence. I’ve had my fill of being shot at.”
