Following a period of shoreleave in orbit or Ferenginar, Fleet Captain Aron Kells departed abord the USS Tharsis to further investigate a rare sighting of a Gormagander pod. The USS Thor as the vessel conducted a test flight to perform diagnostics on the quantum slipstream drive (QSD). Upon engagement of the QSD system, however, the Thor was impacted by an unknown object which was able to bypass the vessel’s shields and struck amidships causing significant damage to the hull and internal systems. | |||
As part of the response to this situation Alex was assigned to the role of acting First Officer and tasked with helping to coordinate the response to this incident. Initial reports revealed that the mine was, essentially, a piece of subspace. In addition to this a Laudean member of the crew was able to confirm this using their Fielding ability. | |||
Following this Acting Captain Teller formed a new strategy to attempt to remove the mine from the Thor – this would take the form of a three-phase approach that would involve destabilising the link the device had to subspace, find a way to neutralise the mine and, more vitally to continue to maintain the security of the QSD. Brodie was asked to coordinate the first aspect of these strategies. Preparation of the bulkheads and forcefields to allow a controlled hull-breach were in place and a series of probes emitting a synthetic QSD drive signature were placed into a ship synchronous orbit. These features, combined with the destabilisation frequencies, allowed a controlled release of the device from the vessel as the ship exited quantum space. | |||
While the Thor was now safe and free of the alien mine the damage to the vessel together with the isolated nature of the ship beyond the furthest reaches of the Federation the regretful decision was made to abandon ship. The preparations were made for this eventuality but it was not required due to the timely intervention of a taskforce led by Fleet Captain Kells. This taskforce towed the Thor back to Federation space where it was placed in dock at Deep Space Nine, in the orbit of Bajor, awaiting repairs. The final fate of the mine remains unknown. | |||
