Mission Summary

Another day, another unusual sensor reading - this time relayed to the Aurora by one of the long-range probes that have been launched to roam the Sector. At first glance the readings appeared to be some sort of energy fluctuation, but as the Aurora closed in on the area to investigate it became clear there was more to it than that.

The source of the readings was traced to beneath the surface of a large chunk of rock, a chunk that appeared to once have been a significant part of a moon. Also present, landed on the surface, was a small craft broadcasting a radio signal that proved very hard to get any sort of translation on - and no life signs. Something about the composition of the rock, perhaps with artificial help, made scans largely ineffective, but it was possible to discover that the energy readings showed significant similarities to the signature given off by Iconian technology.
