After Action Report Supplemental
SUPPLEMENTAL NARRATIVE This supplemental will elaborate on the findings of my investigation into the sensor failure during the events of Gamma shift.
After review of sensor and computer logs, it appears that our entire subspace sensor array had been inverted, directed towards the interior of the station as opposed to externally. It is my belief this had been done by a member of the science or engineering team attempting to track down an escaped creature as per this communiqué released by the science department today.
The sensor systems have now been reset and diagnostics confirm long range subspace acquisition is now working correctly. Two palettes have been reserved for the use of tracing this escaped specimen.
Unfortunately preliminary logs do not indicate who requested this sensor reassignment, who authorised it, nor who made the change itself, I will continue to investigate. I do not at this time believe these actions have been carried out with malicious intent, however the end result was that Deep Space 13 was without shielding for numerous hours following a potentially hostile first strike which may have been mitigated or prevented entirely.
RECOMMENDATION Continue log investigations to determine why long range sensors were reassigned and on whose authority. Investigate possible malicious intent, though it is likely this will just be a training opportunity.
OOC Just a quick bit to pass the blame from Operations to another department as to why we didn’t see an asteroid hitting us. Mwahahaha.
