The Orion was scheduled to rendezvous with the USS Flying
Spirit in order to transfer over new officers but we’ve received a garbled
distress call from them. Someone or something has taken the Flying Spirit off
course and possibly caused it to crash on a nearby planet. We have begun a
search operation and have tracked down a weak ion trail most likely from the
missing ship. Hopefully, we will be able to find some answers before it’s too
late.
