(OOC: Linds, I’m assuming our characters made it to the Holodeck without issue, but let me know if my assumption is wrong.)

Mark arrived at Holodeck 3 on Deck 20 with Danora. He had led them here as it was the closest holodeck to the Shuttle Bay.

“Okay, let’s see what we have hear,” Mark said to Danora, getting straight down to business, pulling out his tricorder.

=^= Computer, start a new program, Spherical Probe 1. Download all scans from this tricorder classified as the sphere probe, and begin rendering.”

As the computer began working, Mark looked over at Danora. “I think its best to start with the original rendering of the probe, and then we can expand or remove parts as we need to.”

OOC: You’re good. :)
IC:
The simulation generated a perfect replica of the exterior and interior sphere. For the moment the hatch that had allowed them access inside was closed.

“Computer, remove exterior sphere, and enlarge the inner sphere by a factor of five,” Mark said aloud, as he started walking around the projecting. The Chief Engineer was scratching his chin, and he tried to ascertain the function of the inner sphere.

He paused to look over at his companion. “I was thinking of focusing on the inner sphere first - where the lifeform emerged from,” Mark explained. “Although we could study both the exterior and interior spheres at same time…”

“Now…,” Mark said, partly to himself and party to the hologram. “What was your purpose and how did you keep the lifeform contained…”

“Computer, what the material used in the makeup of the inner sphere?”

-Lt. (j.g.) Mark Sinclair, CE

((dumped NE on Shuttle bay and Dani is here with the Chief))

Dani watched the rendering and frowned a moment. “It didn’t come out of the inner sphere. So wouldn’t it be more prudent to remove the inner sphere and investigate the outer one? From the inside, I mean.” Her hand spanned the room to indicate being inside it.

She walked a couple steps around the internal piece and sighed shaking her head. “Though the exterior of the internal ball could tell us if it was interfacing with the creature. Couldn’t it? I mean, the inner sphere had one of two purposes, right? It was either there to assist the creature, or merely collect and store information during its travel.” She wasn’t sure if she was actually making sense. It was thinking out loud that helped her keep her mind on things.

She walked the entire circumference of the sphere and shook her head trying to suss out the various panels and their purposes, her fingers rising to her mouth as she gnawed absently on the edges of her nails, deep in thought waiting for the computer’s response to the Chiefs query.

OOC: It did come out of the inner sphere. Don’t know if that changes your line of inquiry or not… ~Linds
