Commanders,
Following our recent encounter with Azedi forces, I have been going through my unsubmitted proposals during my tenure as Deep Space 13's Science Officer and I believe these may have merit to be revisited. I attach a broad overview of these plans to my message below.
While my original plan was to conduct these experiments aboard the Brahe, I believe this would be best held within Starbase departments to provide a centralised support structure to ensure these reach completion in a timely manner with full access to all resources as necessary. I am requesting a cargo bay or appropriately large science lab to be cleared and installed with a tractor beam emitter (I propose a cargobay to be the best choice as the likelihood is a tractor beam will already be installed and connected appropriately with minimal adjustments required). I would also request a gravity simulator be deployed to generate an anti-graviton field to ensure our experiment does not impact the Starbase or crew in an adverse way.
To my knowledge the Federation has not made any significant advancement in micro wormhole generation, thus I can only hope we have had some bizarre stroke of luck and a micro-singularity was recently detected aboard the station. Regardless, we already know what a properly configured Teleraptor beam's properties are, so we should be able to compare the output of a reconfigured tractor beam to ensure the beam is behaving properly. A test of its function would simply be icing on the cake as it were.
Finally, it is my understanding that a section of an Azedi vessel was recovered and brought back for metallurgic analysis, I would like to request a sample of the hull be made available for the experiment if possible. While Teleraptor is a primarily defensive configuration, its offensive capabilities and uses should not be overlooked and I would be interested if a tractor beam based Teleraptor was able to penetrate Azedi hulls as well, it's very much a secondary concern however as we know deflector based Teleraptor is more than adequate for this task.
Please don't hesitate to contact me regarding any concerns or requests of your own you may have.
Regards,
