The check on the ship systems were that they were very much cobbled together. The Ion drives were not unknown . P:hillips could see that in a pinch there were a couple of parts that could be quickly replaced to help efficiency (techy word for running a bit smoother) and perhaps eek out a little more output from them. Anything more would need longer work than what they have.

Dr Grey - CMO“Maybe we could get another shuttlepod from the Bonaventure.” I hope. Alan suggested.
-Lt(j.g.) Alan Dysart, Linguist
Should anyone peer at the controls of the shuttlepod, they would see a flash indicating proximity of a second shuttlepod. While it was not showing where it was definitely ‘in’ the sphere; the proximity being a comms ‘ping’ where the two shuttle computers were talking to one another, even if the chat was a few bites of information as a virtual hand shake.
- WookieeNoami happened to glance over to the shuttle pod’s controls. Carefully, she sat down and tried to determine where the signal was coming from. She wished she had paid more attention to Kenny’s lessons over Engineering now rather than flirting with him. While she was busy, she spoke over to the others and decided it was best to draw attention to this. It might actually save more lives.
“Sir, there’s an indication of a secondary shuttle pod. I’m not fully sure where it is, but its definitely in the sphere somewhere.”
–ENS Naomi D. Locke, Sci.
She tapped the console on her chair to call to the away teams. [O]Status update… MACO? Baumann? What’s happening out there? We’ve moved closer to assist but We can’t penetrate the sphere much to see what’s going on.[O]
Ari
CO=^=Apologies Captain. We are attempting to evacuate the people here into one of their spacecraft in case our MACO team is unsuccessful. Engineering is having a look at their craft at this time to improve its efficiency.=^= T’Leia said as she watched the activity around her.
Commander T’Leia
Shrant entered and began looking at the craft, looking over at the Engineering Ensign “What’s the status on this thing?”
Shrant
The Ensign looked up, saw the CE’s rank and insignia and gulped,”Uh, not good sir. Its just too old but we might increase the efficiency of the engines and environmental systems enough with a few parts from our supplies. Might be enough for it to run as long as we need it too. Want to take a look?” He asked standing up out of the way.
NE Phillips
Rachel continued assisting the population into the pod with some effort. Not being able to help on any other front was frustrating while at the same time being pleased with the fact that she didn’t have to do anything. when a Doctor had little to do things were generally better for everyone.
Dr. Grey - CMO
The Captain’s voice came over T’Leia’s comm and anyone else patched in and listening. [O] Roger, T’Leia… keep everyone safe if you can. Most of all I want everyone home safe for dinner tonight.[O] she smiled as she finished the thought, [O]That’s an order.[O]
About two minutes later, a very stern voice once more lit up the comms. This time the anger, while evident, was also tightly reined in. Baumann and T’Leia would realize just how much control the CO was holding in keeping her voice as steady as it was. [O]T’Leia, as of right now, you are adviser to Lieutenant Commander Baumann, who is hereby field promoted to XO. Orders from High Command.[O] She knew it would throw things into a kilter on the away mission, but if she didn’t do this now, things that occurred after the missive had reached her, and she’d been seen as reading it, could make things hairy for them all. She just hoped everyone could keep it together and just do what they were doing. She had faith in Baumann to step up, he was practically her third in command down there as it was.
[O] Lieutenant Baumann, you are hereby field promoted to Lieutenant Commander and made XO for the duration of the mission. T’Leia is your adviser. Mission parameters haven’t changed. I have every faith in you. [O] She knew the words weren’t very comforting, but it couldn’t be helped.
Capt Ari
CO
In his typical even and calm manner, Baumann responded over the comms to T’Leia and the Bonaventure bridge. [O] Understood, Captain. [O] was all he said.
Baumann, AC
