We colonized this expanse many years ago to escape the cruelty of galactic civilization. You have arrived and are tearing the very fabric of this space apart with your experiments.

You would condemn us to such plight, or force us to leave this region we call our home! Please, do not continue your work. It is destabilizing the expanse. Please…

Commander, I have made the breakthrough that I was hoping for. Rather than exert the excess energy forwards with the propulsion of the vessel, we simply need to dissipate it on launch.

As the new experimental drive engages, we simply flood the surrounding system with the by products of the reactor, therefore releasing the energy that had proven dangerous in past flight tests.

Won't that do high levels of permanent damage to the origin point of your flight test?

Yes, most certainly. In order to achieve success, Ms. McGivers, one must be prepared to endure difficulty. There is a cost to every victory. Greatness often requires savagery.

Yes. As it stands, only the singularities and black holes within this region of space provide the means to achieve the desired result of near-instantaneous interstellar travel.

The experimental drive will only work one-way. That is why we are travelling to the vicinity of the large anomaly in Ifrea-3.

Khan, I was able to download the communication logs from the ship before it was destroyed. It seems that their last transmission mentions an Assembly. They are preparing an attack.
