- I need to see how the anomaly reacts to an introduction of cultivated Mycelium spores. If we see an adverse reaction, that could go a long way to explaining our arrival here.

- Unfortunately, since Mudd stole our entire supply, we don’t have the amount of spores we’d need for this experiment. We need to find more.

- This anomaly is having a completely different reaction to the spores! It’s still altering its atomic structure to account for the fungi, but it’s composition is vastly different to the last one.

- This changes how we think about quantum travel. If we can figure out how these anomalies affect the network and tune our navigational equipment to compensate, we can find a way to use that.

- Not exactly. It doesn’t seem to interact directly with the network, but it almost looks like it’s warping it, just with the sheer weight of its presence.

- Ominous foreboding aside, this is not something we can afford to pass up. Commander, I need to make sure this isn’t some kind of fluke. We need to examine another anomaly.
