(Sigma Draconis V - Caitain Exploration Ship H’ress -Captain R’Rull)

R’Rull sat in her chair looking at the reports on Sigma Draconis V.  Her government had secured mining rights to the planet, and her ship had been sent to start mapping the dead planet.  

Caitain technology used a rare mineral in their technology, something that could not be replicated, and was found on dead planets, such as Sigma Draconis V.  “Well Shoa,” she said, “It looks like we have to earn our keep again.  Launch the probes.”

Her first officer turned to the science office, “Sr’oren, are the probes ready?”

“Yes Sir, all prepared.  Initial mapping coverage at 30X with 200 meter depth in the most logical locations will take approximately 3 standard days,” he replied

“Launch probes,” Shoa ordered. 

The sound of the dozen specially designed probes launched in sequence.  “Probes away, Captain,” the science officer announced.  Entering orbit as planned.  Trajectories are nominal.  Data will begin recording in one standard hour. “

The Captain nodded. “Engineer K’trusa,” she said turning to her right.  “It seems a good time for your unit to prepare the sampling drillers in case Sr’oren finds something worth our time.”

“Of course, Captain,” the engineer replied as she stood up and headed to the shuttle bay.  The probes were of her design, and if they worked, would speed up the initial setup of mining sites, which is one reason the H’ress was on this assignment.  That and her Uncle who controlled the mining contracts.
