Unfortunately because the form of radiation was not something he was familiar with in known science he could not gleam much more from the tricorder scans. Perhaps in this case it was just a clue on something on this planet he could take note of and use later perhaps. So far at this point it clearly was not something which he could tell was related to the warp pulse that had drawn them to this planet, nor did it match anything within the Abyss that they had seen in orbit yet. For now it was perhaps best they either check out the cave, or else return the way they had come and go towards Valiki.

Approaching the footsteps print in the ground, Alwyn managed to make a quick tricorder scan and tried to analyze them in order to find any DNA residue. if anyone have witnessed the explosions, they had to find it quickly. Plus, having the opportunity to study an unknown human-shaped species was a bit of excitement for the young doctor. Even if it wasn’t essential for the missions, it was still important for the scientists and himself.

Scans of the DNA were complete, they seemed consistent with the local planet’s lifeforms so far detected. But no exact match came up. So it was probably another type of species or group of species they had yet to encounter. With this in hand though they could use it to track with the tricorder, so far the path of the group of prints and DNA all led into the nearby caves.

“Bah!” Kovan shoved his tricorder back into it’s leather satchel. The radiation was a promising lead and it surmounted to nothing. His tricorder useless and Kovan without a clue as to what the lingering radiation meant or indicated. Frustrated, he moved to join Yarwood, “Find anything?” He asked, his gaze drawn towards the caves.

Landing Team 1 hadn’t found any thing of use in Krezk and had returned to the ship. Rand had been sent back out to lend an extra pair of hands and eyes to team 2. Team 3 had been considered but they were right smack dab in the middle of a large group of locals and there was no way to safely get her in place without anyone noticing. She appeared on the edge of the clearing. The hood of her cloak had fallen and she quickly pulled it up and over her head. As much as to conceal her hair color as to keep the mist and damp away. Scans had said no one else was around, but it never hurt to be careful. She spotted the group, not far, but headed toward what looked like a cave. The clearing looked like some sort of explosion had taken place. She scanned the group quickly, identifying Kovan (they made an investigative pair didn’t they?), Yarwood (she didn’t know the doctor, but Randy spoke highly of him and his skill), and Nkosenye (the man scared her. She didn’t feel threatened by him, but he was scary). Finally her gaze landed on Cmdr Alden and she made her way toward him to report. Once she was within normal speaking range, “Cmdr Alden. I was told you needed an extra pair of hands. We found nothing helpful in Krezk so here I am.” She passed him the knapsack, “NE Bubbles told me you were investigating something. Standard field sample and testing kit.”
