Newcomer / Intro Ship logs of Steel Menhir in Dromi?

I visited this in Dromi and it seems like a cool introduction to megaships (Sagan class tourist ship) for new pilots. I scanned the ship log uplink and got a message that it was successful, but how do I see the log? I found a forum post that said some megaships don't have any logs, but given this megaship's prominence in the second system of the Pilots' Federation District, shouldn't it have something? Am I just missing something obvious?

It also has a hackable comms array, so we know what's happening next if I don't get something out of the logs now that my feathers are ruffled over my unjust detention. 🤫

I believe whenever you obtain something noteworthy and readable, like a Generation Ship log or Abandoned Base log, a copy of the log entry is saved to your Codex. Look under Codex > Commander > Archive. Less mundane logs like the things you find from Tip-Off misisons, only get kept in the Messages tab for 30 days before they disappear.

Nothing there under either Generation Ships or Tourist Beacons. Too bad, because I think this is the only megaship in the Pilots' Federation District and the only thing like it aside from the Agricultural Installation in Matet.

That is the tab I meant.

In that case check in your transactions tab there might be a record of the logs there if they are something you can hand in for a reward.

Thanks. I checked the Transaction tab in the left menu (the one with Navigation as the first tag) and I only see the missions I picked up from station mission boards.

In the Matet thread, people suggested hanging around for awhile to see if something develops like a pirate attack, but I've hung around Steel Menhir trying to figure out the logs for at least as long as I think any new pilot would.

Finding no logs, I tried hacking the comms array to see if anything interesting would happen:

Nothing happened despite both limpet attachment spots indicating "hack complete". When a comms array has two limpet attachment spots, do both generally have to be hacked to get anything?

It was also strange that the authority vessels came close when a ship scan was detected, but they didn't open fire.

Short of opening fire on power generators, I don't think there is anything else I can do. There are cargo hatches, but I would need hatch breaker drones for that, which I don't have and can't get at this point.
