THERE ARE TRACES OF SOME LOW-INTENSITY E NERGY THAT WE CAN'T IDENTIFY; IT KEEPS T HE MOLECULE VIBRATING AT A HIGHER RATE T HAN YOU MIGHT EXPECT. BUT THAT'S ALL WE CAN TELL YOU.~AN ALIEN WRECK~SMOKE AND F LAMES BILLOW FROM THE CRAFT'S HULL. IT'S SKIN SHIMMERS ODDLY, SOMETIMES IT SEEMS TO DISAPPEAR.~TRICORDER READINGS SHOW T HE SHIP TO BE FULL OF EXTREMELY ADVANCED ENERGY SOURCES, AND (EVEN NOW) SOME COM PUTER ACTIVITY.

IT GLOWS A DULL RED AS IT ROTATES.~SC AN INDICATES A HUGE MASS COMPOSED OF HYP ERCOMPRESSED HYDROGEN AND OTHER ELEMENTS . THE PRESSURE IS SO SEVERE THAT SOME OF THE HYDROGEN HAS BEEN COMPRESSED NEARLY TO THE METALLIC STATE.~CAPTAIN, I AM FA SCINATED. THIS IS A HUGE MASS OF HYDROGE N AND OTHER LIGHT ELEMENTS, A SMALL PERC ENTAGE OF ASTEROIDAL ROCK AND COMETARY M ATERIAL. IT MUST HAVE TAKEN A STANDARD Y EAR OF CONSTANT ACCUMULATION TO ACCRETE SUCH A MASS.~A GOAT-LIKE CREATURE~THIS I S A CREATURE THAT LOOKS RATHER LIKE A MA GENTA-COLORED CROSS BETWEEN FISH AND GOA T.~THE TRICORDER SAYS THAT THE GOATS' ME TABOLISM IS BASICALLY AMPHIBIAN.~THIS IS AN AMPHIBIAN OF A FAIRLY COMMON TYPE.

THIS CREATURE IS VERY LIKE A TERRAN W HALE.~HARAPHA, A TORTOISE LIKE CREATURE~ THIS CREATURE LOOKS LIKE A TORTOISE WHOS E SHELL IS COVERED WITH ENAMELS AND JEWE LS.~THE TRICORDER REVEALS THIS CREATURE TO BE STRUCTURALLY RATHER SIMILAR TO A H ORTA, EXCEPT THAT IT DOESN'T SECRETE ACI D. SOME OF THE "JEWELS" IN THE SHELL ARE EYES.~THIS APPEARS TO BE A SILICON-BASE D LIFE FORM RATHER LIKE A HORTA. IT DOES N'T SECRETE ACID, BUT OTHERWISE THE SIMI LARITIES ARE STRIKING.~ASUIAR, A TALL FE MALE HOMINID~SHE HAS GREEN SKIN AND SILV ER HAIR, AND IS WEARING A BRIGHTLY PATTE RNED JUMP SUIT.~THE TRICORDER INDICATES A STANDARD HOMINID PHYSIOLOGY, WITH CENT RAL NERVOUS SYSTEM AND CIRCULATORY SYSTE M RATHER LIKE A HUMAN'S; HER HEART IS SO MEWHAT LARGER THAN THE HUMAN NORM, AND H ER BONES HAVE MORE MARROW.~THIS IS A HOM INID LIFE FORM, VERY CLOSE TO EARTH-HUMA N STANDARDS IN METABOLISM AND ARRANGEMEN T.

POSSIBLY AN ADAPTATION TO LOW GRAVITY.~MELUCHT, A TALL, PLANTLIKE ALIEN~THIS IS A SLOW-M OVING CREATURE THAT LOOKS LIKE A TALL TH IN HOLLY BUSH.~THE TRICORDER REVEALS A B EING WITH A VEGETABLE PHYSIOLOGY RATHER LIKE THAT OF SEVERAL OTHER KNOWN SENTIEN T PLANT SPECIES.~THIS IS A BEING WITH A SENTIENT-PLANT PHYSIOLOGY RATHER LIKE OT HER KNOWN SPECIES. I WOULDN'T TRY TO EAT THE BERRIES.~QQKQ, A FLAT ROCK~THIS CRE ATURE LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE AN IRREGULARLY SHAPED FLAT ROCK.~THE TRICORDER PICKS UP A STRONG AND DEFINITE LIFE-FORM READING FROM THIS "ROCK"...BUT NO OTHER READING S WHATSOEVER: ESPECIALLY, NO BRAIN ACTIV ITY AS IT'S COMMONLY UNDERSTOOD.~IT'S A ROCK. AND IT'S ALIVE. BUT THAT'S ALL WE CAN TELL ABOUT IT. IT DOESN'T SEEM TO BE SENTIENT, AT LEAST NOT AS WE KNOW IT.~T HSHHATH, A FURRY, RED-GLOWING CREATURE~T HIS IS A SMALL, VAGUE, FURRY SHAPE THAT SEEMS TO GLOW SLIGHTLY RED IN THE DARK.~ THIS IS A SMALL METHANE-BREATHING BEING OF UNCERTAIN PHYSIOLOGY.~I WOULDN'T ADVI SE DISTURBING IT. IT MAY TO HAVE ITS REA SONS FOR STAYING AWAY FROM US.~ORNAE, A CLEAR, SHIMMERING, AMORPHOUS CREATURE~IT 'S LIKE A CLEAR MEMBRANE FILLED WITH FIF TY GALLONS OF PALE-BLUE JELLY.~THE TRICO RDER INDICATES THIS CREATURE IS AN AMOEB OID TYPE LIKE THOSE OF ALIOTH 4B. IT CON VERTS ENERGY DIRECTLY FROM SUNLIGHT OR C OSMIC RAYS. IT HAS THE ABILITY TO ATTACH ITSELF TO ANY MACHINE OR DEVICE TO EFFE CT REPAIRS.~FASCINATING! JUDGING FROM IT S PHYSIOLOGY, I WOULD SAY THAT THIS CREA TURE HAS A NON-CENTRALIZED BRAIN AND NER VOUS SYSTEM. I SUSPECT THAT IT CAN FORM A SYMBIOTIC BOND WITH OTHER BEINGS OR MA CHINES.~A VAST SHIP-SERVICING APPARATUS~ THIS IS AN ASSORTMENT OF ADVANCED AND IN VOLVED SHIP-SERVICING EQUIPMENT.~AN ASSO RTMENT OF ADVANCED SHIP SERVICING EQUIPM ENT, USING MATTER-ANTIMATTER TECHNOLOGY, MOLECULAR WEAVING, ION EXCHANGE, AND SP INSHIFT METALLURGICAL TAILORING. THE ORN AE ARE RUNNING THE EQUIPMENT AND LETTING THE COMPUTERS USE THEM AS TOOLS.~FASCIN ATING, CAPTAIN. THESE CREATURES ARE NOT ONLY USING MACHINES, THEY ARE MAKING THE MSELVES PART OF THEM. IT LENDS MEANING T O THOSE REPORTS WE HAD ABOUT THE PLANET, THAT THEY WOULD MAKE TOOLS OUT OF ANYTH ING, EVEN THEMSELVES....~A SHINY ROUND O RNACRAFT~IT IS 10 METERS WIDE AND LOOKS MORE LIKE A GIANT BALL BEARING THAN ANYT HING ELSE.~THE SHIP HAS A MATTER-ANTIMAT TER CONVERTER THAT ALLOWS ONLY A FEW MOL ECULES OF EACH SUBSTANCE TO REACT AT A T IME (A LEVEL OF CONTROL UNKNOWN TO FEDER ATION SCIENCE). SIGNALS ARE DETECTED BET WEEN THE CRAFT AND THE EASTERN MOUNTAIN RANGE.~WHAT A BONNY SMALL SHIP! BUT HOW DO YOU GET IN?...AND HOW DO YOU KEEP IT FROM ROLLING AWAY? I'LL GIVE A BOTTLE OF MY BEST SARIAN BRANDY TO THE FIRST MAN WHO CAN TELL ME HOW SHE'S POWERED.~A SMA LL TRANSMITTER ~IT HAS NO EXTERNAL FEATU RES.~A SMALL AND ELEGANT DEVICE RUNNING ON ATOMIC BATTERIES OF THE KIND FORMERLY USED IN PROBE SATELLITES.

I WILL BE INTERESTED TO SEE IT S LOG, IF ONE STILL EXISTS.~THE USS ROBE RT A. HEINLEIN~A STARFLEET LIGHT CRUISER , ABOUT TWO THIRDS THE SIZE OF THE ENTER PRISE.~SCANNERS SHOW NO EVIDENCE OF LIFE ON BOARD. DENTS AND RIPPLES MARK HER HU LL, AS IF EXPOSED TO GREAT PRESSURE.~CAP TAIN, THIS IS DEFINITELY SULU'S SHIP. SH E NORMALLY CARRIES A COMPLEMENT OF TWO H UNDRED AND SIX. BUT WHAT IN SPACE HAPPEN ED TO HER? IT LOOKS LIKE PRESSURE DAMAGE , CAPTAIN, BUT WHAT KIND OF PRESSORS CAN DO THAT TO A SHIP'S HULL?~A KLINGON SPA CE STATION~A ROUGHLY CYLINDRICAL SPACE S TATION ABOUT HALF A MILE IN DIAMETER AND A MILE AND A HALF LONG.~READINGS INDICA TE A STANDARD KLINGON SPACE STATION. IT IS ARMED, BUT THE STATION'S MAIN POWER E XPENDITURE IS FOR PROTECTIVE SCREENING. INSIDE, MUCH MECHANICAL AND HEAT ENERGY BEING EXPENDED AND THERE ARE MANY LIFE S IGNS.~IT'S ONE O' THE KLINGONS' STANDARD MODULAR SPACE STATIONS, CAPTAIN. A SHAB BY PREFAB THING IT IS.
