Captain's Log 03 - Landing Party
Who: Jim Kirk & Anyone Who Wants to Come On an Expedition
Broadcast:No
Action: Yes - On the moon, in the Terraformers
When: Sometime this week
Tests have been run, data has been gathered, packaged, looked over, highlighted with all sorts of colored sharpies. There is only so much the data can prove. What's needed now is an actual investigation, getting the final clue to a puzzle that, Kirk thought, they were running very short of time on.
Which was how he ended up down on the surface of the toxic moon, in front of the nearest terraformer.
Time to go find some answers.
[ ooc: Since I didn't want to flood the comm, it can be assumed that Kirk announced he would be going to explore the terraformers and asked if anyone wanted to come and form an expedition party. So, if you want to come, feel free to jump in.
Also feel free to start your own side threads. I will put up some sections, but feel free to start your own as the group explores. The ultimate goal is just to gather information (but this is a Jim Kirk Expedition (TM), so something may very well go wrong!), so have fun!)
If you need help starting things or want a refresher, here is the original mod post. ]

[He winces a little bit at that explanation.] Well, at least we know that this moon can still be saved. With the way it looks outside...
[Yeah, he'll just trail off on that. The pollution problem back at home has been hard to fix, and it's not nearly as bad as this moon.]
So these terraformers are a lot like the ones you have? Was there ever a case of one of them malfunctioning like this one?

Malfunctions do in general happen more often than they should to ours. Nothing that has been planet ending or changing the entire atmosphere; it generally means the Plant-- er, terraformer stops working. [Unless Vash counts the times he has lost control of his powers and did massive damage, but he's not.]
Although, it's usually related to the [Plant] power source not being handled correctly by the people trying to maintain them. [He almost stops there, but then quickly adds.] They mean Well, they just make mistakes.
And the power source here is the main difference between the ones we have and this one.
