Haroon looked at Aaron for a second, before looking back at Mr. Greene. He whispered “I don’t know, but something here feels very off. I’m trying to figure it out.” He tried to sound calm but there was a hit of tensity in his voice. Whatever was off, it was bound not to be good.

Kylie’s eyes turned towards the Aaron and George. She frowned slightly her face showing some worry before her eyes turned back towards Greene and Rice her face slipped back to its normal controlled blank look. “We are here to observe right? So what would we be able to observe… closely?” She asked her face showing some interest for a moment.
Cadet Kylie Brecker (Engineer)Greene shot Commander Rice an unhappy look. Clearly he wasn’t thrilled with being a tour stop in the first place but now he was being asked to do demonstrations. “Perhaps I can find something simple you can observe, but I must insist that everyone not touch anything.”
“Ever transfer anything to the challenger Dr. Green? ” James asked curious about what he would tell the group, he stood at attention as he awaited the answer from the doctor.

Reynold was taken aback. “Why on Earth, Jupiter and Mars combined would I be doing anything on your ship? You only just got here, didn’t you?”
Commander Rice’s brow furrowed. “I’m sure the cadet didn’t mean anything by it,” she said, shooting Haroon a stern glance.

“Sorry doctor I just wondered is all,” james either just struck a nerve or the ne in nine forward was mistaken, but he found this interesting indeed.

OOC: Oops clicked post twice, ignore this.
Joshua M.Kylie snickered a little before she turned her gaze directly towards Reynolds. “Well I would venture that we are not the first crew on the USS Challenger. Nor would I want to wager against the odds that the starship may have been docked here at Jupiter Station before.. Mayhaps my friend here is trying to ask about the past. I certainly don’t know how long you’ve been station here Doctor. But things of the past, can tell us of the future.” She said giving a small shrug.
Cadet Kylie Brecker (Engineer)Greene took in the cadets with a bewildered expression before moving off towards a door inside the lab. “I still don’t know what you’re getting at, but if I must endure this little tour, come, let’s get it over with…”
Swiping his hand across a biometric lock, Doctor Greene stepped through the door and into what was clearly an even more sophisticated lab. In the center was a chamber set on a platform surrounded by consoles. The chamber itself was a metre and a half high and half a metre in diameter. “People in space encounter all sorts of phenomena that can wreck havoc on our bodies. This chamber allows me to examine these effects on organic and non-organic materials.”
~Mischief Maker
Cadet black watched in curiosity, as the doctor entered the room. Then he with even more interest, observed him enter the chamber.
James was paying close attention to the situation.Cadet James Black engineer
Commander Rice gazed intently at Green. “Perhaps, Doctor, you could give a small demonstration?”
Greene tried very hard not to scowl at the first officer but he gave a grudging snort. “Sure, why not.” There in fact were many reasons why not, but why would that matter?
Stepping over to the side, he fished out an orange from a box and held it up. “While I can demonstrate this with non-organic matter, it’s best demonstrated with organic matter.” Moving back to the chamber, he opened a hatch and set the orange inside. “Now, I’m going to create a micro-subspace shift within the chamber and we can observe its effects on the orange. Anyone want to take guess at what we might see?”
~Mischief Maker
“ The orange to travel somewhere you want it to go,via a sub space corridor. If I’m correct Dr Green.”

Kylie looked thoughtful for a moment. “I would gander that it would cause distortions in the matter, which could be just visual… or I suppose it could alter the taste… or make it inettible I would imagine… you say that and I am only able to think of the accounts of the NX Enterprise inside of the Delphic Expanse.” She trailed off after a moment her eyes flicking between Dr. Greene and the orange her thoughtful look grew more intense.
Cadet Kylie Brecker EngineerGreene’s gaze flicked between the two and then he pointed at Brecker though he gave a side eye to Black. “No subspace travel here. This is a chamber… how would we even track it?” he said, arching his brows. “But changes in the state of the matter are what we expect. It’s what we see happen in subspace phenomena. The hypothesis we’re working with is that different types of matter experience different changes. We experiment with inanimate objects as a starting place to try to understand better how how different interactions with subspace might effect us as travellers in space. Yes, we have protections, but it’s not always perfect, so understanding the risks and effects on the body help us both improve protections for those studying suck phenomena as well as come up with better medical procedures should an accident occur.”
His fingers tapped out a series of commands and the hum of a forcefield appeared around the chamber. A few more taps and the chamber lit up and energy swirled around the orange. Greene watched for a moment, his eyes flicking between the chamber and the screen.
Then an alert sounded causing the doctor to grown.
“Commander…” Rice cautioned.
“It’s… fine, just some tetryon particle leakage. It can happen but…”
“But??” the stations XO said, sipping past the cadets and joining the researcher at the console. Her eyes widened a moment before the entire lab went into lockdown.
Containment failure. Risk of radiation exposure imminent.
“Shut it down!” Commander Rice ordered.
Green was aghast. “I… I can’t. The fail-safe program isn’t responding…”
“Well do something!”
“I’m not an engineer!” Greene said, fighting to stay composed as he cycled through different options.

Kylie quickly steps up to the console and looks at it her face twisted in deeper concern and thought. “I would suggest, first trying to cut power… com engineering and see if they can cut power to the lab. Otherwise… we could try to also get a schematic.. and a couple of plasma torches and get creative…” She looks to the chamber, then the console again. “My best guess… there could be a power flux… that’s drawing more power than the system can handle.” She says as she looks around the room. “Do you have a tricoder in here?” Her voice showed the urgency she felt at the somewhat desperate situation, though overall her voice was calm. Her eyes continued to scan the room, looking at the tools and stations that were in the lab.

James followed her hitting the right side of the console, trying to increase the shields to the chamber. He told Kylie “ I don’t think it’s safe, to just cut the power.”

“Certainly not unless you want to be flooded with tetryon radiation and expose everyone to a subspace anomaly,” Greene barked. “But we do need to find a way to cut the power flowing through the chamber, or increase power to the shields. But I don’t know why we have leakage through the shields in the first place. These systems are meticulously checked.”
Rice hit her commbadge. =/\=Rice to Operations. We’ve got a containment problem down here and Doctor Green can’t shut down the experiment chamber. The lab has gone into lockdown.=/\=
=/\=Alshoi here. How bad is it?=/\=
Rice looked to Greene who grimaced. =/\=Not too bad… yet. But we need to maintain the shielding and still shut down the power to the chamber.=/\=
=/\=Commander Rice, Russo is on his way down to see what he can do. Stand by and do what you can to protect yourselves. And maintain an open comm.=/\=
“Understood,” Rebecca said. She gestured to Cadet Black. “Cadet, in the far corner should be the emergency supplies. Grab a medkit so we can at least inoculate ourselves and buy some time.”
~Mischief Maker
“Well I meant that obviously… power to the canister not necessarily the shields. I would have figured they would be on independent power leads… if its piggybacked into each other, then we have more problems.” Kylie said as she jogged over to the supply cabinent that Greene mentioned. She grabbed one of the Tricoders, and a PADD if one is also in there. She jogged back to the cannister and then quickly she started to take some readings, of the canniseter if possible, of the shield emmitter, and various other components and consoles in the room wether they appear directly related or not.
