The records from the
Thames shed little light on the situtation other than a micro-second by micro-second account of the shutdown sequence. The records from the Type 15's followup mission reveal the layout of the two levels of the platform and the contents of the globes. Analysis concludes that the layout of the platform levels and globes is likely to be substantially similar for gamma Two, the contents of the globes is equally likely to be quite different. The runabouts have been post-flighted, serviced and are ready to be pre-flighted for the flight. The standard loadout includes 4 type II phasers, 2 riot phaser extensions, 4 tricorders and a set of transport enhancers with cables for each ship, in addition to the type I phasers issued for daily carry and any specialty equipment requested, including all equipment discussed above. The ships also have a replicator for food/beverages and a small one for any tools they may need.

The flight out to the area of Gamma Two is uneventful, and Gian and Shione have plenty of time to digest the records. They, of course, have tight-beam inter-ship communications that should not set off the tower's power shut-off.
