Samson by this point took over, “..Wolf 359 would be one of Earth’s first efforts in recent years to lay claim to such prime territory near Sol. Your orders will be as follows, 1) Get there and verify the system findings of Probe-9, as well as the planet’s and their potential mineral composites, 2) Land on Planet 2 and setup claim buoys not only in orbit but ground side, so folks passing by will know who owns this strip of land, 3) Ground side we want you to cataloged anything viable, animals, plants, water, air, etc. Especially look for ideal mining posts and colony sites near the three highlighted survey markers, 4) Once you’re done deploy system drones to setup a watch till we can get a larger mining presence setup by our contractors at Far Horizons. Questions so far?” Samson asked.

No questions sprang to mind, then again, Marceau was still a bit in shock by the news in the first place. “It seems straightforward. I have until 1100 hours to come up with questions?” He asked, looking between Samson and Beems. He’d been in deep space before, or what Starfleet at the time considered such, on another ship, so at least it wouldn’t be his first time out of the Sol system, but it was still… nerve wracking.

”..Correct, Captain. Any questions you got please communicate them by 1100 hours tomorrow morning. Get your staff briefed by 1230 hours if no issues or questions arise, and then you’ll be departing by 1400 hours in the afternoon..” Samson said.

“Understood, sir. Is there anything else?” Marceau asked. “And when can I expect to board the ship?” That was his excitement showing. He wanted to get up there and see it.

”..You can head up right now if you want. There is a minimal crew of 9 or so aboard currently doing inventory, but the rest should be coming up over tonight and especially by the morning hours. Just hop onto a shuttle pod and go on up..” Samson said.
