Kaylee made her way onto the bridge, choosing to hang toward the back, out of the way of the bustle. She hadn’t had a chance to observe the crew in action while she excavated herself from her mountain of paperwork, so having a moment to watch the interactions between the crew members as they completed their tasks was invaluable to her.

At the moment the ice asteroid was descending in an arc toward the frozen giant planet. It too was drawing in other asteroids which was making the situation more interesting and stressful for Kanto. Keeping the area of space clear was going to get progressively more difficult not to mention keeping the Endeavor safe. Plots on the main viewer showed smaller asteroids coming in from all (rear) angles as they were drawn in by the gravity well. One which Kanto was feeling as well.

“This is looking interesting,” Cassandra remarked as she continued to watch the situation unfold, hopefully, they could get out of this without too much issue.

A small bead of sweat started to form on the Vulcan’s forehead as he tried to maintain his speed and rotation, letting the shields handle the smaller chunks of asteroid. “Computer, set port and starboard thrusters to manual control,” he said, as he pushed the thrusters to keep them from sinking into the gravity well. “Captain, I am not sure how long I can hold us here in our present position. You may want to tell the away team to hurry.”

OOC: or launch <G>

Computation simulations would show that the Endy was in less trouble/threat than the descending asteroid holding the downed prospecting ships. They didn’t have maneuverability or shields.

“Computer, run probability of holding that asteroid steady with tractor beams.” For a Vulcan, Kanto almost sounded frantic.
