System: Hyades sector AQ-Y d81The Canonn Research Megaship, the Gnosis, had arrived to the system just less than 48 hours before. All the independent pilots that had docked with it to go along the ride had long time ago departed, starting their own research on the Thargoids and other mysteries present in the Pleiades. The traffic through the station soon became quite heavy, but nothing that the megaship was unable to handle.
"Delacy Mike, Viktor, Oscar, its good to see you again, Commander. Please request docking on your approach and be wary of..."
"Canonn megaship Gnosis, this is commander Volgrand requesting emergency dock."
"Understood, proceed to docking bay 8. Status report."
"Corrosive hull damage, its eating my ship apart! Prepare to receive me, I have important cargo for the Institute!"
In a matter of minutes the repair drones were in the docking port. Volgrand's ship, a Cobra MKIII almost crash-docked into the bay, securing the magnetic clamps immediatly. The bots did their job flawlessly, using a chemical compound to neutralize the Thargoid corrosive products and starting repairs. The orange cobra MKIII, "Radiance", had obviously sustained heavy damage during a very long engagement, but once again had proven its value surviving impossible odds.
Once the ship was clean, tthe docking bay descended into the megaship's inerior bay, allowing Volgrand to finally step out of his ship. The Commander had a few hits and bruises in he face, but despite that he seemed in good health, but very tired. As he secured his mag boots in the Gnosis "floor" (an interesting concept in space), he opened the holographic projector from his Remlock Suit's arm, where a woman's face appeared.
"Thank you very much, control".
"What have you been doing, cmdr?"
"Inform the science team to prepare the secure laboratories, I brought something for them."
"What is it, commander?"
As he was saying that, a limpet drone from the Gnosis went to the "Radiance"'s cargo bay, slowly pulling a very large biological object. Issuing few orders with the projector, the drone moved the Thargoid Heart into a metal box that was nearby.
"I've got them a Thargoid Heart."
