Notable conversation

Bzzt! Captain, this conversation appears to trigger a few of your requests.

bzzt! I have applied your personal language filters.


Jackson: Gonna have your BLAM, man.
Raschad: Yeah, yeah, shut it. (Pause, 4.7 seconds) Your cameras working?
Jackson: Oh, hell. Not this BLAM again.
Raschad: Relax. Probably just residual EM from the burst. (Pause, 1.3 seconds) Or are you seeing ghosts again?
Jackson: Sit and swivel, BLAMhole.
Raschad: (Laughing, abruptly stops)
Raschad: This is... huh.
(Pause, 4.3 seconds)
Jackson: (Defensively) You saw it, you call it in.
Raschad: Baby. (Pause, 1.7 seconds) Raschad to Control, do you read, over.
Control: Go ahead Raschad, over.
Raschad: You got eyes? Over.
Control: Negative. What are you seeing, over.
Raschad: Could be either burns or scratches on the bulkhead. Three intersecting triangles going down, point on top. A line going straight down the center starting at the top point, going about 40 centimeters lower than the bottom. Several small circles in and around the triangles. Kind of crude. Over.
Control: Any significant damage? Over.
Raschad: Negative Control, just unaccounted for, over.
Control: Log the location, we'll copy it when we have eyes. We'll speak with the other shifts. Continue as normal. Over.
Raschad: Understood, Command. Raschad out. (Pause, 2.5 seconds) See, somebody's just being stupid is all.
Jackson: Easy for you to say. Everybody doesn't think that you're crazy.
Raschad: Nah, I don't think you're crazy. (Pause, 1.4 seconds) You gotta be smart to be crazy.
Helen: Crewman Raschad, this is the supplementary AI, Helen. Is there any chance that you could copy it as a drawing for analysis? (Pause, 4.6 seconds) Crewman Raschad?
Raschad: (Quietly, quickly) Yeah. End of shift, I'll get it done.
Helen: Thank you, Crewman Raschad. I'll let you get back to work.
(Pause, 13.4 seconds)
Jackson: (Concerned) David? You cool?
Raschad: (Distant) Yeah. (Pause, 2.4 seconds)
Raschad: (Quickly, even tone) I'm frosty. Let's just get back to work, alright?

Captain. In the interest of sharing possibly important information with you, I decided to give you the drawing that CN Raschad made. He seems to have found some sort of crude drawing program for it, though its encoding and size leaves something to be desired. I will give him credit for resourcefulness and his work ethic, though I still wonder what you were thinking allowing a possibly deranged man aboard your crew.

What was the orientation of this symbol?

Bzzt! Until CN Raschad wakes up, I cannot confirm, but in his rather curt conversation with Helen, he indicated that it was low to the floor and facing this direction.

CN Raschad did speak the minimum words possible to me as he was submitting that drawing. I noticed an increased tremor in his hands, an elevated heart rate, raised body temperature, and a defensive posture throughout the conversation. Hive has provided me with logs and these symptoms persisted until the incident.

Hive, in what section was it found?

Bzzt! In the Temporary Living Quarters portion of the station, in where the bunks will be installed. The location was apparently in a corner.

bzzt! I hope that the star doesn't have another coronal mass ejection the caliber that we experienced if they ever feel the need to put somebody on the station. That might get problematic!

Mention it in the next report. And place my recommendation for appropriate shielding as well.
