Coming into orbit was easy enough, no downward sucking came up due to the gravity well of the planet seeming to cancel out the gravitic anomalies now present in the region. So in short they could enter orbit freely enough and not worry about problems long as they had their impulse engines working a little bit.

The bridge intercom activated with the soft Scottish accent of the ships Chief Medical Officer [O]Sickbay to Bridge, I’ve got two patients here with radiation sickness, not a grand problem now but I think we’ve a hole that needs pluggin’. They was in the laundry room[O]

Dr. Grey - CMO

Ari frowned. “I want a ship wide scan. Find out where that radiation is coming from.” She tapped the console by her chair [O]Bridge copies, Medical....We’ll get it taken care of.[C] She tapped another command at her fingertips [O]Engineering, we have a radiation leak somewhere. Reportedly at least one spot is the laundry area. Let’s get that plugged, please. We’re scanning from up here as well [C]

El replied from Engineering. [O] On it Captain. It’s not the ship, though. Everything is good here. [C]

She didn’t like this one bit. Rising to pace slightly, she frowned while staring at the view screen. “We shouldn’t be getting radiation leaking in from what’s happening below. That means it’s something up here.” She took a deep breath. “Helm, take us a bit further back. Circular orbit at distance of widest point in elipse. Let’s try that distance first. We’ll move back further if it doesn’t work.” She paused in the middle of the room, crossed her arms and lifted one hand to her lips to worry on the edge of her finger as she tried not to bite her nails.

Isaac did a radiation scan on The inside and outside of the vessel. 1 to see if there’s any more holes that you plugging and 2 to see where the radiation was coming from and to find out what orbit will be safest.

“ captain can you ask sick bay what type of radiation it is that will help me narrow down the scans for radiation pockets”

Lt. Isaac Black (AC)

Ari glanced back over her shoulder. “Ensign Locke… you have that information?” She had risen up to pace once more and wasn’t looking at her own console at the moment.

Roger looked over at Naomi and gave a wink. “You take the radiation, I’ll monitor all these comms signals.” He looked back at the data coming in. “Captain, I’m picking up a lot of comms chatter, requests for aid and military reports and orders.”

-Roger Ferguson, CSO

Scans of the inside and outside of the ship showed the planet’s recent exchange in near orbit was affecting the local area of space. With now being in a standard orbit pattern they were as it turned out near a thick patch of radioactive waste which had it seems become attached to the ship’s hull near the ship’s laundry room.

Comm traffic continued in fits and spurts, the public access radio traffic was a mess naturally and chaotic to fully make sense of, in short they were in some form just calls for help or mercy from one side or another. Interestingly some references to Earth based culture were also picked up here and there, a lot of it surrounding the area of land where Hollywood at once dwelled.

Military traffic was also chaotic, but more organized, filtered through a series of low orbit satellites which in turn were being attempted to target by both sides it seems to sow chaos in the ranks. The low level missile, laser, and plasma bolt fire in the orbital planes below them was a sight to see for sure, but long as they remained undetected they shouldn’t have any problems there at least.

El replied back after a few. [O] Bridge, this is Engineering. We seem to have some radioactive space debris or waste on our hull in that area. Science might be able to confirm, but polarizing the hull might repel it. I’m sending out a team to the laundry area to scan for radiation levels, secure affected areas and begin a decontamination procedure. [C]

Isaac got the system ready to polarize the hull Plating. He was also rotating the shield frequency to try and keep themselves from being seen by the satellites and becoming a target themselves.

“Captain if we get any closer the satellites may be able to see us. I am rotating Shield frequencies to mask our approach and I am ready to Polarized the hull plating on your command”

OOC: Note no shields exist on starfleet ships in this era thats not till post rommie-earth war in 2160 at the earliest

OOC: Right it all hull plating right now.

GM CockRoach

“That should have happened a lot sooner then now,” Jonathan muttered to himself. Standing up from his seat, he moved over towards Locke and Ferguson at the science station.

“In between all of that, you think you have a moment to help pinpoint either when this civilization showed up here, or how in the world they learned English?”

Cmdr. McKnight - XO

Ari nodded as Jonathan voiced her question first. “Back us up to safe distance and polarize hull to see if we can kick that debris. Get us out of ‘magnetic’ range. Don’t need to be grabbing every bit of space trash they send up this way.”

Ari glanced at Jonathan then at the CSO. Her voice strained with trying to remain calm. “Check the records for prewarp Earth. There should be readings from the last wars. See how they compare. Whatever we can get. From radio shows and transmission records to air and population records.” She looked back at McKnight with a worried look on her face. “I don’t like where my head is going with this. Please tell me I’m wrong and it’s not possible.” For the first time in a long time, Ari wished she had a security or even a cooking background. The trouble with a science mind… it wandered into places it shouldn’t.

The lift doors opened and the Intel Officer stepped onto the bridge. Baumann stepped off to the side and, as he did so often, simply observed the exchange between sections and listened.
