Take this to the captain if you need to convince her to use extra caution, but just remember that I cannot tell you anything more. I can't cause the timeline to shift. ::pause:: I wish I could.

His 'friend,' Ben Austen, is reportedly the only surviving member of the transport crew, and Nick's ongoing project is working towards bringing him home.
