NARRATIVE: Project Teleraptor team departed DS13 aboard USS Asimov, proceeding to predetermined experiment site in uninhabited interstellar space. Mission objectives consisted of four experiments:

1. Generate micro-scale artificial wormhole
2. Devise method of tracing terminal point of a wormhole
3. Test means of forcibly collapsing an open wormhole
4. Test means of reopening closed wormholes

Upon arriving at mission site, granted operational authority to project leader LCDR Callahan to conduct experiments. Callahan directed crew to generate Kahn-Pren artificial wormhole by projecting subspace tensor matrix at 30kC from main deflector followed by purposeful misalignment of M/AM core containment fields to produce magneton pulse. As predicted, this produced artificial micro-wormhole bridging 8.55km of realspace. Terminal apertures of wormhole measured 2.17cm.

Commencing experiment 2, LT Kaczmarek analyzed exit vectors of verteron particles emitted by wormhole terminals. Past wormhole research attempted to generate theoretical models for realspace fold-pathing given these particle vectors from a single wormhole terminal and known subspace curvature mapping. Presence of two terminals in close proximity allowed Kaczmarek to test models generated by ship's computer against both endpoints, significantly narrowing possibility spectrum. Kaczmarek, Callahan further improvised means of refining model further by propelling radioisotopes into one terminal, then capturing exit trajectory at other end. Kaczmarek thereby managed to isolate single theoretical model for predicting location of unknown terminal endpoint based on verteron emissions of known terminal. Model tested passed blind tests against both terminals.

Experiment 3 consisted of collapsing artificial micro-wormhole with phase-conjugate graviton beam, while experiment 4 subsequently reopened same wormhole. Both succeeded as expected. No harm was done to underlying tensor matrix field by closing wormhole; in fact, field persisted almost 5 minutes longer than predicted before eventual dissipation. Possible explanation: closed wormhole places less stress on tensor matrix field than open one; theory unsubstantiated at this time.

Having completed all objectives, Asimov returned to port.

RECOMMENDATION: Outfit and train starships and crews for following procedures:

  • Compute unknown remote terminal location from known terminal using Kaczmarek Formula
  • Disable Species 2492 verteron beam by collapsing source artificial wormhole with phase-conjugate graviton beam from deflector array
  • Reopen closed terminal for tracing/traversal with magneton pulse from M/AM core
