This is Dr. Mullen of Cobalt Science Station, Suliban system, calling for immediate assistance. Is there anybody out there?

We detect a massive energy build-up in our vicinity. A gravimetric field is beginning to fold in on itself. We need some help right away!

Dialogue
We need another ship to approach the field from opposite side, to deflect its polarity. Otherwise we may be in danger of creating a dangerous rift in space.

Your presence is helping, Commander. One of our shuttles is near Brennis. Please, help to retrieve it.

We made it out! Oh, Commander, that was close! We have no idea what went wrong, but without you, we would certainly have been destroyed.

This mission to Suliban was a complete disaster. I will report back to my colleagues and recommend we shut down our investigations there.

Alright, we're ejecting the core and positioning the excess Parsteel… We'll need to self-destruct our ship. We can't risk trying to escape at impulse.

We have them, Commander. I'm setting a course out of the system. Quickly, before the explosion!

Your warp drive must be interfering with the field. It appears to be slowing. It’s not going to stop, however.

Dialogue
Enough of a shockwave, some kind of detonation, might close the gravimetric field before it becomes a black hole.

The warp drive… You said it interfered. Perhaps ejecting the core and destroying it will stabilize the field.

Dialogue
Yes, but the core will explode too early. If you can shield it with something solid, like a cache of Parsteel, it will make it to the field intact.

Do you have some you could beam out to space with the shuttle's core?

I believe if we jettison 1.5M Parsteel, it should absorb the initial damage. Commander, can we spare it?
