Commander, your universe intrigues me. Though it bears many striking similarities to our own, I also detect several subtle differences, particularly to the life it breeds.

Spock, is this really the best use of our time?

I believe so, Captain. Despite our displacement, we are still an exploration vessel. Our mission remains to seek out new life. We have been presented with a unique opportunity for scientific study.

I would like to perform some experiments on local flora and fauna to determine whether this quantum discrepancy could potentially impact the evolution of life in this galaxy.

There are some interesting subjects in a nearby system. I will set a course.

Hmm. This particular sample is a non-sentient micro-organism. Our records match almost exactly. Fascinating.

Precisely. This creature seems to have taken the same evolutionary path as its counterpart in our universe.

Well, this is certainly interesting Spock, but how does it help us?

Unknown, as of yet, Captain. I believe it would be wise to perform a similar examination on a larger, more intelligent creature. Commander, I am sending coordinates to you know.

I am reading an unexpected bio-sign in the cargo bay. It appears that we have a stowaway on board.

One of your… test subjects, Spock? Well, I hope they’ve gotten comfortable. What are we looking at?

Oh. Fascinating. Where there was one bio-sign, there are now two.

This ecosystem is quite interesting, Commander. There are several species living in perfect harmony within an impossibly small biosphere.

It is too early to tell. I would like to run some more tests. Commander, could I ask for your assistance in transporting one of the creatures to your Station?

Fascinating. This plant life appears to have evolved in a hostile environment. Note the bright red coloring and the slick, oil-like coating. All to ward off potential predators.

Interestingly, our database does not contain any records of such a strain. Just another of the small differences between our universes.

I believe it best to inspect a sample of the local fauna, next. I will set a course for a noteworthy sample.
