- The gas seems inert when in containment. Not suitable for humans to breathe, of course, but not nearly as toxic as what we observed on Zarri Goma.

- I have a hunch that the gas reacts and adjusts its chemical makeup based on its environment. We have creatures on Earth that behave similarly.

- Right now, it’s just a hunch, but I’d like to test it out. There’s a low oxygen environment in the Araiza system that would be perfect for my first experiment. Could you escort me there?

- Woah, look at this! The chemical composition of the gas is adjusting rapidly! It’s methane levels are spiking. If a human were exposed to this sort of saturation, it would be fatal.

- The gas appears to be adjusting the relative space between its molecules. It is attempting to spread itself to cover a larger area.

- Okay, let’s do it. By my estimation, we’d need to release 1,000 Dilithium for this to work.
