Summary
System: Meene

Station: Felice Dock (Ocellus Starport, 97 ls from main star, large pads available, 163.52 LYs from Sol)
Objective: Deliver Classified Experimental Equipment from the Heart of Taurus in Qarato
Time limit: 16th December 3307 @ 06:00 UTC

Description
Professor Alba Tesreau has asked select individuals to support the close study of Salvation's anti-xeno superweapon.
A message was received by Commanders as they entered the Qarato system:
Commander, My name is Professor Alba Tesreau.
You have performed work for Aegis in the past, which is why you are receiving this message. My apologies for its clandestine nature, but your help is needed for an important mission.

The faceless criminal named Salvation is asking pilots to transport components for his superweapon. We believe it makes use of hazardous and unproven technology, and must be subjected to scientific scrutiny.

Your task is to travel to the Qarato system and collect classified experimental equipment from the Heart of Taurus megaship. But rather than take these shipments to their intended destinations, instead deliver them to Felice Dock in the Meene system. With enough of these components, the engineer Ram Tah will attempt to determine the weapon’s nature.

Although I had no choice but to resign from Aegis, I still have faith in the organisation. We are not perfect, but our intentions are sincere. Please help us to prove that Salvation cannot be allowed to continue his reckless experiments.
Having worked for Aegis in the past, Professor Alba Tesreau has asked select individuals to support the close study of Salvation's anti-xeno superweapon.

Aegis personnel believe the weapon makes use of hazardous and unproven technology, and must be subjected to scientific scrutiny.

Travel to the Qarato system and collect classified experimental equipment from the Heart of Taurus but, instead of taking these shipments to their intended destinations, deliver them to Felice Dock in the Meene system. With enough components, the engineer Ram Tah will attempt to determine the weapon's nature.

Tesreau has expressed her continued faith in Aegis, recognising the organisation is not perfect while maintaining that its efforts are well-intentioned. With the help of chosen pilots and Ram Tah's expertise, she hopes to prove that Salvation cannot be allowed to continue his reckless experiments.

As a reward for this support, the top 75% of contributors will receive four turret mounted class 3 AX Missile Racks. These will be placed in storage at Felice Dock by the 18th of December 3307.

The first tier target will be enough to successfully analyse the superweapon. Surplus deliveries will be stocked for future tests, with deliveries still counting towards a pilot's final contribution total.

The initiative begins on the 9th of December 3307 and will run until the 16th of December. It is expected that the classified experimental equipment will be unavailable for collection from the morning of the 14th of December.

To earn rewards, you must sign up as an active participant before delivering Classified Experimental Equipment to Felice Dock in the Meene system.

Be aware that faction-state changes and other disruptive events can negatively impact markets and station services, and could prevent the initiative from running smoothly.
Notes:
  • Felice Dock is orbiting planet AB 1
  • Qarato to Meene is around 150 Ly
  • Classified Experimental Equipment are a rare good, current allocation is 80T
  • Station services: Market, Blackmarket, Outfitting, Restock, Refuel, Shipyard, Repair, Universal Cartographics, Social Space
  • Prices at Meene:
    • Classified Experimental Equipment: 16,004 Cr/T

As a reward for this support, the top 75% of contributors will receive two pre-engineered, fixed mount Class 1 Plasma Chargers with increased damage, armour piercing, clip size and projectile speed, but increased power draw and thermal load. These will be placed in storage at the Bright Sentinel by the 18th of December 3307.
This seems different from info I've seen about this CG elsewhere, I though the rewards were four turret mounted Class 3 AX Missile Racks?
 
We finally have a sliver of progress!

(we're at around 11k delivered, like the one below)

Squinting at these bars it seems we maybe have a goal around 10x the others, but tier 1 is a lot lower - maybe 100k? Huge error bars on that though.

FDev keeping the Mods busy. Modules are AX Missile Racks though according to the message Factabulous posted:

Sorry, I edited one of the other CG texts and missed the rewards bit; plus the message I saw didn't mention any rewards. I was going to investigate further but ran out of time before the radio show was due to start. Now updated from Factabulous's attachment above. :)

Just got another message, seems we are off back to Guardian ruins again

Do you have any more details please? :)
 
FYI, system name is typed differently in 2 paragraph in the OP...I think the good one is without the "s"
A message was appeared to various commanders from Alba Tesreau as they entered the Qarato system:
Your task is to travel to the Qaratos system and collect classified experimental equipment...

Don't worry - they're just confused as docking in Felice gives you the Ram Tah mission. Unrelated to the CG.
Yep sorry was going to post (just had some other life stuff to do), its the old Ram Tah mission as Fact says.

Oh phew, thank goodness for that! :eek:

Quite probably, this post was put together in a hurry before I was due to get on Hutton Radio so most likely mistyped the name. I'll correct it now. Thanks :)
I also just realized that it doesn't say anywhere that these missile racks are engineered in any special way as I assumed they would be by default.
Hmm no it doesn't but no, they aren't always engineered. It's only recently some have been but I wouldn't consider it the 'norm'. ;)

Ah I know what happened now - I copied the text from the screenshot I saw in the CG Predictions thread - with an 's' on the end of the name... so the mistake was on that. :)

Jackson's Lighthouse is close (relatively, 55.4 ly), to help your Dolphin / DBX / Phantom for the backway.
