@ XO: We were delaying in the hopes of finding a solution, but I do not think that is an option any longer. Perhaps by dawn the names can be chosen and we can begin to shuttle people to the launching stations.
XO_Amendoeira says:
@Throki : I know... And i sympathize... But we must act quickly. Also, you have to remind the population that this is only a necessary precaution.. And that we have every hope that this problem will be resolved.

CEO_Hull says:
*OPS*:  We are preparing Shuttle 'Maximus', request clearance 
CIV_Doile says:
::quickly reviews the information and talks to himself a bit more:: CIV: Now I'm sure he's nuts.  We'd need hundreds of transports to make an evacuation feasible!
FCO_O`Rourke says:

Host CO_Madred says:
<OPS_Ty`vec> *CEO*: You have clearance to depart, Chief.

@ ::watches the gaggle of people leave... shakes head and starts to walk back towards the theoretical engineering complex... muttering to himself:: Damn Federation... Always willing to help anywhere and everywhere... Oh the great Federation, ready and willing to handhold yet another civilization into interstellar mediocrity.
CEO_Hull says:
FCO:  Opposite thinking Mr. O'Rourke, that would work wonders
CMO_Cameron says:
@COMM: Some of the planet's population have been chosen to be saved from this planet's destruction should we not be able to help them.  They will be sent to evacuation stations.  That's in addition to the 18,000 we can rescue ourselves.
CSO_Tsalea says:
::Returns in an EVA suit, a bag of equipment over her shoulder, and takes her place at the console.::
Nichura_Promdi says:
@::walks into the building's impressive (for the technology level) communications center:: XO: Do you have your waterfowl in a line? We can begin talking immediately.
CMO_Cameron says:
@COMM: CO: However, my own personal opinion would be to at least let these people die with dignity.  We can replicate enough Hyronalin to have at least some effect on reducing the symptoms of the radiation poisoning.
FCO_O`Rourke says:
CEO: I am thinking of a pod with its own micro drive, so if needs be we could launch it closer than we ourselves could get.
CIV_Doile says:
CIV: It'd be easier to introduce anti-trilithium into the star!  ::brightens up as an idea occurs::
Host CO_Madred says:
::wonders why this is the first he's hearing of this:: COM: CMO: I see ... do whatever you can for them.

CIV_Doile says:
<Computer> CIV: The star will remain stable for 301 years, 3 months and 2 days.
CMO_Cameron says:
CO: Yes, sir.  I'm just concerned that we save as many people as we can.  Although if Commander Tsalea can solve their problem then we won't need to, but at least we'll have been working towards something positive.

@Promdi : We will see, soon enough, if this communication helped or not...
CMO_Cameron says:
::nods:: CO: Yes, sir.  We'll try and get as much of the Hyronalin ready as possible.  I need to do some of this work on the bridge, if you'd care to join me.

XO_Amendoeira says:
@::nods to Throki:: Throki : Now, we wait... And hope for the best...
XO_Amendoeira says:
@COMM CO : Captain... How are things up there?
CSO_Tsalea says:
#COMM:  CO:  Extrapolating for now, it would appear that there was a delayed reaction from the star when the ship imploded, which may have set off a chain reaction at the site of implosion.  This may have created a large solar flare that burned off half of Jantami I's atmosphere, scorching it and creating craters.
CSO_Tsalea says:
#COMM:  The debris is what we saw earlier.
Nichura_Promdi says:
@ ::barely notices:: CTO: Pardon? Oh.. our security forces will be on alert. If necessary.. ::hesitates:: I will declare martial law.
Host CO_Madred says:

XO_Amendoeira says:
@COMM CO : Any news?
FCO_O`Rourke says:
#CSO: We are approaching safe distance, just so you know ::initiates burn ::
Host CO_Madred says:
::chuckles ruefully to himself:: COM: XO: I was hoping you would have news for me, Commander. Commander Tsalea's team is still evaluating the star. She should have some data soon.
Ili_Throki says:
@CTO: You do not want to expose any of your people with the radiation down here, anyways.... Commander, is it?  As strong as your inoculations are ...... well... it's still not healthy.
FCO_O`Rourke says:

CIV_Doile says:
Computer: Computer, how long will the star remain stable at these parameters?
CTO_Ryan says:
@::Blinks awake as she hears someone talking to her:: Throki: We have equipment on board our vessel which will protect us.  However since you require no additional security forces it doesn't matter now.
XO_Amendoeira says:
@COMM CO : Sir.. I'm afraid of what will happen, now that the winners of the lottery have been announced. But I don't want to interfere with the Joran'T'Kam's sovereignty.

FCO_O`Rourke says:
#CSO: From the interior of the star?
CIV_Doile says:
<Computer>CIV: The star will remain stable for 904 years, 6 months, and 23 days.
CEO_Hull says:
#FCO:: Watches intently as their fate is discussed::
CIV_Doile says:
CIV: Well, that should give them time to work on a permanent solution.  Now time to whip up a batch of anti-trilithium.
FCO_O`Rourke says:
#::suspects the CSO has lost it ::
XO_Amendoeira says:
@COMM CO : Ryan has made reminded the Sovereign for us, J.. Sir..

CIV_Doile says:
Computer: Computer, create a level 12 containment pod capable of holding anti-trilithium.
CEO_Hull says:
#COM: PG:  CO:  Sir, we are transporting a sample of the matter onboard for further analysis, standby
CIV_Doile says:
::watches as a torpedo shaped pod appears near a lab table::
CTO_Ryan says:

Ili_Throki says:
@::tilts her head and thinks:: XO: These are really passionate people.   Elders are respected here.. and to have to leave them behind.. well.. let's just say.. it's not the most... nicest thing in the world to do to your parents.
CSO_Tsalea says:
#::Notes the flashing lights on the console::

FCO_O`Rourke says:
#::initiates burn to break orbit  outwards to the ship::
CSO_Tsalea says:
#::As they  leave the immediate vicinity of the sun, she walks back to the sample and begins to scan it.::
Ili_Throki says:
@::smiles weakly:: XO: Some might.. some won't.  There are always some who trusts the government 100%. And there are those who are skeptical about every move we make.
CSO_Tsalea says:
#CEO:  Inform the captain we are returning.  And I don't think he will like what we have found.
CIV_Doile says:
::mixes a few heavy metals together::
CEO_Hull says:
#CSO:  Aye
XO_Amendoeira says:
@Throki : And in which category do you fall on?
FCO_O`Rourke says:
#CEO: We will be back in 10
XO_Amendoeira says:
@::walks with Throki to where she is leading him::
CSO_Tsalea says:

CEO_Hull says:
#COM: PG:  ETA 10 min
Ili_Throki says:
@::looks over at the heavy sighing Promdi:: XO: I used to be 100%.  ::looks at him:: Until now.
CIV_Doile says:
Computer: Computer, in 30 seconds, recreate the anti-trilithium parameters in the simulation inside the containment pod.  ::listens to the computer chirp::
XO_Amendoeira says:
@Throki : What changed?
Host CO_Madred says:
::still not sure what this matter they have is:: COM: Maximus: Is this matter sample safe to bring aboard?
CSO_Tsalea says:
#::Take the time to do as much of an analysis as the current equipment would allow.::

Nichura_Promdi says:
@ ::rests his hand on the cool windowsill as he gazes out::
Ili_Throki says:
@ XO: Well.. the announcement.  It doesn't help to work in the government.  I know what goes on about.. well.. everything.
CIV_Doile says:
::adds the heavy metal compound to the containment pod, then stands back as the computer creates the anti-trilithium inside the pod::
CTO_Ryan says:
@::Moves towards a chair and sits down::
CEO_Hull says:
#COM: PG:  It will be housed in a magnetic container, hermetically sealed, it will be safe
XO_Amendoeira says:
@::nods, and takes a seat::
XO_Amendoeira says:
@Throki : I don't follow you...
CIV_Doile says:
::sees that the compound is stable, and sends a report of all this work to the CSO's Bridge console::
Host CO_Madred says:
COM: Maximus: Understood ... proceed. ::turns to the Doctor:: CMO: Schedule physicals for each of the away team members at your earliest opportunity. I want to ensure their exposure to this "sample" hasn't caused them any trouble.
Ili_Throki says:
@::waves for a waitress::  Waitress: I would like.. a Letony Soup.. and .. they would like........  coffee?  ::looks at the XO and CTO questionably::
CSO_Tsalea says:
#::Finishes the initial scans.::
XO_Amendoeira says:
@::nods his agreement::
CTO_Ryan says:
@::Nods at Throki:: Waitress: Coffee will be fine.
CMO_Cameron says:
CO: Aye, sir.  ::gets up and enters the Turbolift::  TL: Sickbay.
FCO_O`Rourke says:
#::begins the process of lining up for the shuttlebay ::
Host CO_Madred says:
CMO: Speaking of which, how long until critical exposure for the team on the surface?
CIV_Doile says:
CIV: Wow...if this stuff decides to be hostile, it might take out the whole deck.
Nichura_Promdi says:
@ ::turns away from the window finally and walks over to his desk and all but falls into his chair, resting his palms on the desk:: Nobody: What are we going to do...
CEO_Hull says:
#COM: PG:  On final approach, request clearance for landing Shuttlebay 1
FCO_O`Rourke says:
#CEO: We need clearance to land and the bay doors opened
Ili_Throki says:
@ XO: I am Promdi's right hand woman, shall we say... And.. um........ he confides in me a lot.. and I've gotten to know him now for quite some time.. I know his motivations are pure.  Just now.. both of you had to deliver speeches of hope and I think .. lying to his people was something Promdi was never really good at.
CMO_Cameron says:
*CO* I don't think they can last any longer than the rest of today without some serious treatment.
CIV_Doile says:
Computer: Computer, erect a level 10 containment field around the pod.  ::watches as the field springs up::
Host CO_Madred says:
<OPS_Ty`Vec> COM: Maximus: Opening shuttlebay doors now, you have clearance to land in shuttlebay one.
CMO_Cameron says:
::enters sickbay, and arranges for full medicals for both Away teams::
FCO_O`Rourke says:
#::Starts slowing as they approach the opening chasm of the Shuttlebay ::
Host CO_Madred says:
*CMO*: Thank you, Doctor ... understood.
XO_Amendoeira says:
@Throki : It's not lying.... I entirely believe what I said before... It's being optimist...
Nichura_Promdi says:
@ ::stares at the painting across from his desk for a long time, a sunrise and gets really angry, throwing his goblet at it and breaking the painting before collapsing on the desk in exhaustion::
CSO_Tsalea says:
#COMM: CO:  I have a sample of helium with some kind of catalyst bonded to it.  This is what is speeding up the death of the sun.  It would appear to have been injected into the sun in large amounts.  It is some form of liquid metal, heavier then mercury. Fro the rate of decay it would coincide with the time the sun's acceleration rate increased.
Ili_Throki says:
@XO/CTO: He doesn't like to hurt his people.  He is good ruler... as old fashioned as some of his ideas are...  ::smiles and moves back a bit as the food arrives::    I understand about the optimism.. but.. Promdi doesn't think there is any hope.. to him.. to make it sound hopeful.. when it's not... that's lying.
Ili_Throki says:
@::waves over her soup with her hands, as if sprinkling magic:: Soup: Beware the terror.   ::looks up at the XO and CTO:: XO/CTO: Enjoy.
Host CO_Madred says:
::looks startled:: COM: CSO: Are you telling me someone poisoned the Jantami star?
