Logs authored by officer Tristam Core.
MST Development Log #1
This is Lieutenant Commander Tristam Core, on stardate 239201.01. To celebrate the Federation new year, I have finally begun an official log regarding the development of full ship transportation technology. With any luck, in a few years time, we'll be capable of transporting entire ships across tens of lightyears. I say tens because under no circumstances will the technology we have in this decade be able to move the mass of what is the Cardiff class starship I am currently serving on. But fret not! At least I'll be alive to see something like that happen.
Hopefully.
Thanks to the glorious company that is the Starfleet Corps of Engineers, I've been given the green light to go ahead and do my best to develop this thing using Starfleet resources, so long as it doesn't interfere with my regular duties on the Invicta and it doesn't conflict with anything Kells wants done too. I've asked a few of my trustee subordinates whether or not they'd like to assist - so far, I've got two people, though admittedly, Loupaz did say she was only doing it to make sure I wasn't completely insane. That's okay, though, because the first few tests and research only need light work. If I get up to actually building things, I can do that myself, but I'd rather not trouble the holographic workers. Because we apparently have those now...
Today I'm going to begin reviewing absolutely everything we know about transporter technology. I'm a components expert; this'll be easy.
End log entry.

MST Development Log #2
So research was enlightening and went just about as well as expected. Enlightening in the way that I now realize if I'm going to get any traction with this project, everything I'm going to use will have to be built from scratch. It's nothing that I haven't done before, but this time I'm basically throwing away everything Starfleet calls 'science' and starting anew.
I'm not concerned with transporting a starship whilst it's moving. Starfleet can tackle that problem when I'm not around. I'm just focusing on moving one giant mass from one section of space to another, which, using the technology Starfleet has available in this generation, won't happen. The technology I'm actually looking for is, according to the files generously supplied by the USS Voyager, in the Delta quadrant. And there's no way I'm ever going to convince anyone to go back into Delta and acquire such technology diplomatically - since Voyager clearly didn't get any results in that area themselves.
New developments in transporter technology themselves finally break the 60,000 kilometre barrier. However, Delta quadrant inhabitants Sikarians were able to smash that record by transporting humanoids over 40,000 *lightyears* away from a single point. They used a folded-space transporter, coupled with antineutrinos and some sort of special quartz formation to project forward. Antineutrinos will obviously avoid any death-like symptoms during or after transport - people would be fine - but the plasma manifolds on a regular starship will not react well to the antineutrinos. Nor do we have access to any special rock that might boost transporter power. And I can't just call up the Sikarians and ask for their help, either.
I'll sleep on it. Right now, my brain hurts thinking about rocks producing their own energy.

MST Development Log #3
I changed my mind. I'm going to try and extend the Starfleet technology I've got and then see where I end up. If I fail, then I can go about creating something brand new. I might live for over two hundred years, but my minions won't. Nor will the people overseeing this log.
So tomorrow I go into holographic-hardware mode. I build the biggest and bestest 'regular' transporter that will beam the highest amount of mass and then see if I can expand upon that design. Because we're in testing phase, I'm going to basically steal all access rights to one of the Invicta's holosuites and start.
No, I will not be using the new "HEWies". Even just the name of those guys makes me question the sanity of other components engineers.

MST Development Log #4
Full report of results is available in the project files. I'm not going to go over everything here mainly because there's nothing to cover. Loupaz and I stressed the transporter to its limits - results were relatively favourable. We used the Sol system as a template. And didn't need it because distance between planets is way more than 80,000 kilometres and distance between planets in the Sol system is in the millions. I'm...
...such an idiot! I'm using the wrong theory of mechanics! Loupaz! Reset the simulation! We're using the wrong transporter!
