USS Momentum, NX-05, Lost with all hands in the early foundation of the Federation, was based on a Refit of the NX-01 Class Enterprise. Believed lost near the Klingon border, well over 200 light years from this position. Was Captained by Captain Juv Horin, and First Mate was Commander Juniper Kiver. Last known mission recording involved an Anomaly at the edge of their sensor range that was going to take them 5 days off projected course. Nothing further exists in the records beyond that((OOC: Unless you want mundane details such as Crew Size, Highest Warp, Etc, those are provided but not currently needed for the continuation))

It was not immediately noticeable, but the NE at the Science Station stood a bit straighter as the Sensors cycled through a Diagnostic. Then he relaxed as the diagnostic was marked as requested from Stellar Cartography not random. Then he noticed.

“Captain, Commander, the probe has changed course, and is now on a direct intercept course and gaining speed.” The slightly bothered NE stated.

=/\= Lieutenant Wells to the Bridge. I’m getting some very strange sensor readings down here in Stellar Cartography. I’ve got what appears to be a system disappearing and I’m not really sure what to make of it. =/\= The newly appointed CSO sounded a bit tired and confused.

“Ship to yellow alert,” Kelly ordered. “Comm’s send a hail to the ship and brocast a welcome in all known Federation languages. Science scan the area for any temporal or spatial anomolies,” she ordered.

Shop wide the yellow alert indicators went active. “Aye Captain, there is no response to our hails.”

The probe began drawing closer to the Atlantis its intercept trajectory becoming more readily apparent.

“Mr. Nash, does the probe appear to have any weapons capabilities,” Kelly asked. Since the probe was not transmitted the standard distress call and seemed to be homing into their position, Kelly felt on edge.

OCC: Please remember to cross post.

“Speak of the devil,” Kelly said hearing Well’s voice come over the comm. “Well then you have your work cut out for you Mr. Wells. Systems do not just disappear and reappear like a magic show. Have you scanned for temporal anomalies,” Kelly asked her CSO.

OOC: if you look up three posts ago on this thread you will see I already cross posted my com from stellar cartography

OCC: Sorry James. Hazard of posting on the run. Work started this week. I took out the cross post I added. ~Kate

Relann moved back over to Kelly. “Seems that the Momentum was an old NX class refit lost with all hands shortly after the start of the Federation. There’s not a lot of details, but they were supposedly lost about 200lightyears from here on the Klingon border after investigating… get this, a spatial anomaly that pulled them 5 days off their course.” She looked to the screen. and then back at Kelly. “I don’t know about you, but I’m not keen to repeat their disappearing act.”

Rinker heard and saw the ship go to yellow alert, and while he normally didn’t respond to any alert by coming to the bridge unless specifically summoned it had been pretty quiet on the Atlantis so he broke out of his norm for a change. “All hands on deck?” He questioned… “Prepare to repel boarders, Keptain.”
