=^= To any vessels with in -static- USS Mome-static- sts aid under -static- tack, ren -static- =^= that was the sum total of the message that had suddenly come alive on the comm station. It was a distress call, it was on a federation channel. One that had not been used in a very very long time. There was a lot of background static to the message. At the same time a single blue light began to flash on the science station. It appeared that a star had just been born from the cosmic morass, and background radiation. Or at least it had not been there a moment ago. On the engineering station there was a ripple in the power readings, but it was likely just a momentary flucuation in the some relay somewhere.

“Ummmm, Captain, we have a call for assisstance” Came the voice of the young ensign on the comm station.
