Recovered on the Siral Colony by the crew of the USS Pegasus

COMPONENT ANALYSIS:
Performed by Lt. Pertwee of the USS Shackleton

Outer Casing
Forward Frame
Point of Origin - Quantum dating indicates this piece originates from approximately 2421. Radiometric particle decay suggests an age of at least ~300 standard years

Source - Forward frame is marked with a Starfleet serial number. Serial #FR-94432K7. Current Starfleet records indicate this part is allocated to the USS Eminence.
Rear Casing
Point of Origin - Quantum dating indicates this piece originates from approximately 2421. Low levels of radiation and microscarring in the sample interfere with other method of dating.

Source - Composition of the sample alloys matches that of a Galaxy or Nebula-class impulse reaction chamber. Extent of wear suggests the reactor had been run far in excess of its normal service lifetime.
Forward Panel
Point of Origin - Quantum dating confirms this piece has not been temporally displaced. Thermoluminescent dating gives its age as approximately 150 years old.

Source - Unknown. The panel is composed of duranium alloy with no trace elements to indicate its place of origin. It was likely fabricated on board a starship or station.
Primary Display
Point of Origin - Quantum dating indicates this piece originates from approximately 2421. Radiometric particle decay suggests an age of at least ~300 standard years for the internal components. The outer surface of the display has been replaced recently using present day materials

Source - Unknown. The panel is Federation standard but has no identifying markings
Inner Cowling
Point of Origin - Quantum dating indicates this piece originates from approximately 2421. Radiometric dating is hindered by evidence of extensive structural damage.

Source - This component has been repurposed from part of a photon torpedo. ID number referencing shows that this ordanace is currently allocated to the USS Atlantis
Rear Access Panel
Point of Origin - Quantum dating indicates this piece originates from approximately 2421. Further analysis is hindered by evidence of extreme radiation and particle flux. Most likely source is close proximity to an uncontrolled matter/antimatter reaction

Source - Intact part number shows this has been repurposed from a Starfleet medical stasis unit. This unit is currently slated for allocation to the USS Durandal, Buran-class. The USS Durandal is set to be commissioned Stardate 95742.2

Internal Components
Signal Transducer
Point of Origin - Quantum dating indicates that several parts of this component originate from approximately 2421. Many of the internal components have been replaced with newly synthesized parts.

Source - Forward frame is marked with a Starfleet serial number. Serial #FR-0054923ES. Current Starfleet records indicate this part is allocated to the USS Koryo.
Transmitter
Point of Origin - Quantum dating indicates this piece originates from approximately 2421.

Source - The transmitter is a modified Starfleet combadge. The component appears functional but has suffered damage from an unidentified particle weapon. Starfleet ID ST-337-2095-AJD. Currently assigned to Cpt. Alyx J. Derenzis
Subspace Antenna
Point of Origin - Quantum dating shows this piece has not been temporally displaced. Relative particle decay places its age at approximately 60 years.

Source - Comparison of part and serial numbers indicate that this part originates from the USS T’Valas, Miranda-class. This ship was marked as MIA during the Dominion War and never recovered.
Receiver assembly
Point of Origin - Quantum dating indicates this piece originates from approximately 2421. Wear analysis approximates its age at roughly 340 years.

Source - The construction and materials match that of a KDF vessel constructed by the House of Martok. Cross referencing the ID to current records shows that this component has been repurposed from the comm array of the IKS Su’sa.
Power Cell
Point of Origin - Quantum dating indicates this piece originates from the present day.

Source - Repurposed phaser battery from a Type-III phaser rifle. Origin unknown.
Amplifier
Point of Origin - Quantum dating indicates this piece originates from approximately 2421. Internal components are mismatched and seem to have come from different sources.

Source - Starfleet serial no. SFR-087762PFS. Main assembly is from a Peregrine-type fighter currently assigned to the USS Pegasus. Source of other internal parts is unknown
Receiver
Point of Origin - Quantum dating indicates this piece originates from approximately 2421. Relative decay analysis approximates its age at ~290 years.

Source - The receiver assembly is of Romulan design, but lacks identifying markings to help determine a more exact origin.

FINAL NOTES:
The transmitter contains a haphazard mess of components. Many of the small connections and harnesses not listed in the official analysis appear to have come from a large collection of sources both Federation and otherwise. Some appear fabricated while others appear assembled by hand. There are no organic matter traces or forensic clues as to who was responsible for the construction and maintenance of this device.

Alien Hull Fragments
Spoiler: Show
ORIGIN:
Recovered from the Siral Colony by the crew of the USS Tiberius

COMPONENT ANALYSIS:
Performed by Cmdr T’Vrin and Cmdr. Mandra

Analysis
Materials
The (assumed) hull samples are composed primary of duranium and tritanium alloys. These are interspersed with a type of composite metamaterial whose purpose is not yet fully understood. There is also evidence of an organic component, but damage from the battle and subsequent reentry has destroyed almost all traces.
Structure
The alloys in the fragments are woven in the form of microfilaments. Fine strands of duranium are woven together with strands of tritanium and other components. Cmdr. T’Vrin theorized that these structures resemble organic ones and may be grown rather than fabricated traditionally. Each filament is homogenous and measures only a few micrometers in diameter.
Metamaterial Analysis
The unknown metamaterial composes roughtly a tenth of the total mass. Unfortunately almost all of it was damaged beyond repair in the recovered samples.

Analysis by Commanders T’Vrin and Mandra found that much of the material exists in a state of molecular flux. Several of the elements that make up the strands are inherently unstable and under normal conditions are incapable of existing. Attempts to manipulate the strands caused an almost instantaneous collapse of this metastable state and the material imploded on itself.

A freak lab accident led to the discovery that this material may have phase shifting properties. The trigger and purpose are still unknown.

WARNING: This analysis is currently restricted. Accessing this report without proper authorization is prosecutable under Federation law.

Deskaar, Joris
Spoiler: Show
Intelligence File


TUlXfiv.jpg

Joris Deskaar is a former smuggler and member of the Orion Syndicate. He is currently head of the Joris Privateers, a relatively small mercenary group operating out of the Batris System.

The early details of Joris life are unknown. He was presumably born in Orion space and became involved with the Syndicate at an early age. Joris appears to have been a relatively minor player, serving as a weapons smuggler under Jotal Shef, a sector boss. At some point shortly after the alliance with the Klingon Empire, Joris was able to break away from the Syndicate and start an independent trading company. which eventually developed into the Privateers.

Joris' personality profile displays an uncommon tendency towards caution and careful planning. In contrast to others in his line of work, he prefers long term strategy and stability over immediate profits. This approach has led to a slow but steady expansion of his group's profits and membership. In recent months, he appears to have begun consolidating his wealth. He has recently purchased several military grade bunkers, and has been displaying signs of paranoia. The cause is unknown.

UPDATE: Joris Deskaar is deceased as of Stardate 95548.1

Joris Privateers
Spoiler: Show
Intel Report

The Joris Privateers are a loosely knit group of privateers, traders, and salvagers united under the leadership of Joris Deskaar. The group's operations span several sectors, but are mostly centered around their base of operations in the Batris Sector.

The exact number of members is in a state of constant flux, but currently hovers and just over a hundred. Revenue is obtained through a variety of means including trade, protection for hire, salvaging, and various other odd jobs. Although several of their trading contacts operate in various extralegal capacities, the group itself has never been implicated in any wrongdoing.

The Joris Privateers operate four Plunderer-class frigates and at least one Brigand-class cruiser in addition to various small auxiliary craft and shuttlepods. Starfleet has not classified them as a potential threat, and they have not engaged in any openly hostile actions within Federation or Klingon territory.

UPDATE: Following the death of Joris, the Privateers have largely disbanded. The group's asteroid outpost remains operational, but the vast majority of the members seem to have dispersed into the surrounding sectors.

Rogue Planetoid


wTeJDsu.png

Recovered Artifacts

  • Supplies
    Spoiler: Show
    Scans of the hidden planetoid outpost reveal over two thousand metric tons of materiel. This includes both foodstuffs, medical supplies, hand weapons, and other personal supplies as well as components for starship resupply and repair.

    The supplies date from the early 23rd century to modern era, suggesting accumulation over a long period of time. There is sufficient slush deuterium and anti-deuterium to supply a small task group for several years or a single starship almost indefinitely.

    Several supply crates are temporally displaced, but contain only general supplies. The vast majority of the materiel does not display any temporal displacement. Heavy munitions and phaser emitter replacements suggest a large combat vessel or warship resupplied here at regular intervals.

  • Operations Consoles
    Data recovered from Operations Consoles. Anti-intrusion countermeasures resulted in the loss of over 97% of the database before it could be halted. Decryption of contents is progressing.

    Tactical Map
    Spoiler: Show
    A tactical map which is capable of tracking ship movements in real time using communications and transponder frequencies.

    The network is near 100% comprehensive for Starfleet vessels, with significantly less coverage for KDF and Republic starships. It also appears capable of tracking miscellaneous other ships belonging to powers such as the Dominion, Tholians, Borg, and various civilian vessels albeit with far less coverage.

    A subnetwork hidden within the map allows for the tracking of transponders from the temporally displaced Starfleet vessels.

    UPDATE: Following discovery of the outpost, Starfleet, KDF, and Republic vessels have been ordered to rotate and adjust all affected channels. The capability of this station to track ship movements has been largely nullified.

    Supply Logs
    Spoiler: Show
    A supply log with records of supplies added and taken. Signed off on by Lt. Cmdr. S’teth.

    The log dates back several years and the flow of supplies appears to have been regular. The supply withdrawal volume is high, especially for combat supplies. The regular flow of supplies stops roughly a month ago, coinciding with the discovery of the outpost by Joris.


    UPDATE: Following the events of "Quarry", more of the information has been decrypted. Several personal communications have been recovered from the consoles.

    Communication #1

Spoiler: Show
Database Entry: Link


wAZBK3M.png

Captured Species 2646 Vessel
VESSEL IS CURRENTLY UNDER QUARANTINE. SALVAGE OPERATIONS HAVE NOT BEEN AUTHORIZED

  • Hull
    Spoiler: Show
    Hull composition is duranium/tritanium microfilaments woven together with organic and unidentified components into a single surface. Quantum dating of the hull shows that the vessel originates from approximately 2421.

    Hull composition matches the fragments previously analyzed by Capt. Derenzis, Capt. Lyn, and Cmdr. Mandra at Siral Colony on Stardate 95399.4

  • Power Generation
    Spoiler: Show
    UNKNOWN

  • Propulsion
    Spoiler: Show
    UNKNOWN

    Vessels of this class were observed by USS Pegasus and RRW D'Ishae to be capable of at least Warp 4, as well as sublight maneuvers.

  • Defensve Systems
    Spoiler: Show
    UNKNOWN

    Vessels of this class have been seen employing a type of stealth technology which also renders them at least partially resistant to conventional weapons fire. They have also been observed utilizing conventional energy shielding.

  • Armaments
    Spoiler: Show
    UNKNOWN

    Species 2646 starships utilize an unknown type of directed energy weapon capable of ignoring the defensive shielding of both Starfleet and Republic vessels.

  • Sensors
    Spoiler: Show
    UNKNOWN

    Sensor technology utilized by Species 2646 vessels may be capable of penetrating the cloaking devices used by Starfleet and Republic vessels.

  • Crew/Environmental
    Spoiler: Show
    Scans taken by the USS Pegasus and later confirmed by Cmdr Akaela indicate that the vessel operates with a complement of 150-200 crew, with a majority of them potentially being Human, Orion, or other non Species 2646 individuals. It is unknown what the minimum or maximum number is.

    The vessel appears to employ an oxygen/nitrogen atmosphere and artificial gravity of .95g. It is unknown whether this is Species 2646 natural environment, or if it is done for the benefit of the other crew. During operation of the ship's stealth technology, the environment becomes lethal for all known life forms with the exception of Species 2646 itself.

Analysis: Species 2646 Vessel Thuzot


wAZBK3M.png

Captured Species 2646 Vessel
VESSEL IS CURRENTLY UNDER QUARANTINE. SALVAGE OPERATIONS HAVE NOT BEEN AUTHORIZED

  • Hull
    Spoiler: Show
    Hull composition is primarly a mesh of duranium/tritanium alloy microfillaments in a 3:1 ratio. Each fillament is approximately 5 microns in diameter with an average length of 125 meters.

    A biopolymer with an unknown purpose makes up roughly 7% of the hull by volume. Scans indicate that it is energy conductive in nature and appears to be in a state of decay. It is unknown whether this decay is due to battle damage or because it requires regular maintainence.

    Another 8% of hull mass is composed of the same type of metamaterial recovered from hull fragments at the Siral Colony. The material is in a state of flux and defies most scanning methods. High resolution scans reveal trace elements incompatible with traditional atomic structures. This material was previously found to possess phase shifting capabilities and moveover like the biopolymer appears to be deteriorating over time.

    Over 43% of the vessel hull is severely compromised with several sections missing outright. None of the damage is the result of the recent engagement with the Starfleet/Republic task force. There are over eighty seperate hull breaches and extensive microfracturing throughout.

  • Power Generation
    Spoiler: Show
    Scans of the vessel interior show at least two functional fusion reactors. There is evidence of a third reactor in a breached section of the ship.

    The ship possesses a single matter/antimatter reactor identified as a Yoyodyne 31A M/ARC warp reactor.

    There are several unidentified pieces of equipment which could potentially be additional reactors, but sensor data is inconclusive. There are also multiple EPS taps running through the outer hull, which could indicate some sort of collector array for solar power or otherwise.

    Of note is that the ship posseses two backup EPS grids with multiple redundancies.

  • Propulsion
    Spoiler: Show
    The vessel posseses four impulse thruster assemblies, identified as standard issue Charon Yards RTA-2 thrust vectoring units. There are also two smaller maneuvering thrusters of unknown design, but based on standard engineering principles.

    There are two sets of warp coils in the leading edges of the vessel’s “wings”. Based on relative size of the coils and the output of the warp core, it is estimated that the ship is capable of a maximum speed of warp 9.4 and a sustained cruising velocity of warp 7.5.

    There is no indication that the vessel is capable of slipstream or transwarp velocities. However, there are several unidentified components which may be alternate means of propulsion.

  • Defensve Systems
    Spoiler: Show
    Scans are unable to identify which component or components is responsible for the generation of the defensive cloaking or phase shifting field utililized during the engagement with the Starfleet and Republic task group. Several areas of the ship are in a localized state of dimensional flux, which hinders scanning. This localized interference may be intentional, but may also be the result of malfunctions.

    Scans have identified at least four deflector shield generators, and a network of emitters on the hull. It is estimated that the shield technology is roughly comparable to Starfleet, with design closest resembling the shield emitters used by Hirogen vessels.

    There is no indication that the vessel carries or ever carried any form of hull armor.

  • Armaments
    Spoiler: Show
    The ship posseses both directed energy and projectile weapons ports. It is unknown what type of projectile weapons are utilized or whether they have the same shield bypassing properties as the energy weapons. The vessel posseses three forward and two rear launch tubes, but the complement of projectiles has been expended.

    Analysis of the energy weapon design suggests that the ships utilize focused positon beams. There are multiple components of the weapon that have not been clearly identified, and some or all of these may be what give the weapons their shield penetrating ability. The ship has nine of these emitters, with six still in operable condition. There may have been more emitters in the destroyed sections of the ship.

  • Sensors
    Spoiler: Show
    Scans have identified a suite of standard sensors, including several DYN-60 linear band sensor arrays and two ARCUS passive sensor pods. There are also several short and long range omnidirectional sensor arrays, and short range LIDAR.

    There is no specialized equipment which would explain the ship’s ability to penetrate Starfleet and Republic cloaking devices, although there are several components which still have not been identified.

    The vessel has both short and long range transceiver arrays of standard Starfleet design.

  • Crew/Environmental
    Spoiler: Show
    The ship is divided internally into twenty-two decks. Scans taken by the USS Pegasus and later confirmed by Cmdr Akaela indicate that the vessel operates with a complement of 150-200 crew. It is unknown what the maximum or minimum complement is.

    Interior scans show several crew quarters with an estimated total occupancy of 250-300 individuals, however the total internal volume of the vessel is comparable to a Sovereign-class cruiser with a standard complement of over 700 crew.

    The ship posseses several medical facilities, though all of them seem to have been repurposed into stasis chambers or cloning labs. There is no evidence of mess halls, holodecks, or other recreational facilities. However, these may have been repurposed or been present in destroyed sections.

    The interior environment is an oxygen/nitrogen atmosphere and artificial gravity of .95g. It is unknown whether this is Species 2646 natural environment, or if it is done for the benefit of the other crew. During operation of the ship's stealth technology, the environment becomes lethal for all known life forms with the exception of Species 2646 itself.

  • Miscellaneous
    Spoiler: Show
    Interal scans have not identified any dedicated transporter rooms. However, there are emitter pads on the hull which indicate some type of matter transporter capability.

    The vessel is equipped with at least two tractor beam emitters.

    There is a functional computer core spanning three decks. It has been partially damaged by either impact or weapons fire but remains powered.

    There is evidence of both primary and secondary shuttlebays, but both have suffered breaches and contain no auxiliary craft.

    Based upon hull geometry and structural integrity, it is unlikely that a vessel of this class is capable of planetary landing on L-Class or larger bodies.

  • Concluding Remarks
    Spoiler: Show
    An initial analysis of the vessel has been completed. At this point, further data will require sampling of the hull and internal components or a full salvage operation. Analysis of the scan data is ongoing to identify components of an unknown make.

    From this officer’s point of view, more suprising than the expected unknowns is the number of known components. A large number of the vessel’s internal hardware appears to be Starfleet sourced. None of it is advanced, even by present standards, but quantum dating confirms that these components were aboard the ship when it traveled into the past and not retrofitted afterwards as a matter of necessity.


    2aMOxVj.png

    Captured Crew

  • Captured Thuzot Crew
    Spoiler: Show
    Medical scans show that both captured crewmembers are the product of cloning. There is evidence of extensive genetic deterioration either as a result of the cloning process or another unidentified cause.

    It is the opinion of the medical officer that bringing these individuals out of stasis would cause extreme harm and falls outside of acceptable Starfleet ethics. The CMO of the USS Eminence has called a halt to any further investigation until a solution can be found to halt the rate of genetic decay.
