Captain, identity verified.

Transmission now begins.

-------------------

We are within the next few hours supposed to enter unknown

territory. We are approaching with caution, as visibility is very

low. Sensors report high radiation ahead. Readings seem to

indicate a presence of something like a nuclear-powered ship like

ours, however this may be the sensors malfunctioning again.

Other then the tense atmosphere, everyone is happy and well.

Sensors and data collectors are ready for mapping.

As unfortunately data can only be sent in plain text, it will come

in weekly digests of the most important data.

Oh, and I nearly forgot, we found a relic from the so-called

"Earth" days. A computer with parts in it we have never heard of

and units measured in measly gigabytes instead of petabytes.

It has a number of "charging" adaptors that have some kind of

plug on the end - am I the only person to remember plugs instead

of radio power? We are searching for an adaptor that will connect

it to the radio power network.

Hope to bring you vital data soon.

Transmission end.
