Construction of our excavation site has gone without a hitch, Captain. We can begin drawing our samples.

The boreholes seem to have disturbed something. There is a signal emanating from beneath the surface.

Multiple hostiles on an intercept course. Bandits local to the system, it looks like. They may have picked up on the same signal Data did.

I’m surprised this planetoid hasn’t combusted on its own! How does it remain unclaimed?

Swathes of neutral space are still virtually unexplored. The bandits that infest this area probably don’t have the resources to detect these elements, let alone exploit them.

We shall keep our wits about us, nonetheless. A Federation ship in orbit of an unknown planetoid will raise suspicion in itself.

Data
Dialogue
We will need an excavation site from which to bore into the bedrock and draw samples. And, bearing in mind the volatility of the ore we’re sampling, we need to use non-reactive materials.

Copy that. I estimate that 150M Parsteel will serve our purposes.

Still broadcasting, sir. It seems to be coming from a buried capsule of sorts. If I can isolate its energy signature, I can beam it aboard the ship.

Captain, we’ve just received our orders from Starfleet. A planetoid in the Yreva system has been flagged for a potential Federation mining colony.

I know what a geological survey is for! I simply wonder why this is a job for Starfleet’s flagship.

That may be, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The report claims that this planetoid may hide a wealth of Varuvian Ore beneath her surface.

What would Starfleet need with Varuvian Ore? Last time I checked, we don’t use bombs to solve our problems.
