BZZT! Alert! There has been another EM anomaly aboard the ship, centralized near Chemical Thruster Bank Starboard 4. Security and medical personnel have been dispatched, though there are currently no crewmen located in that portion of the ship.

Bzzt! I am receiving no signal status from Chemical Thruster Bank Starboard 4. Not even static.

Bzzt! This is the second time an EM anomaly has been detected within the bay for Chemical Thruster Bank Starboard 4.

bzzt! Helen is rather insistent that it should read "Starboard Chemical Thruster Bank 4" in accordance with the others and UNSC standards, however it's even named "Chemical Thruster Bank Starboard 4" on the design specifications for the Theseus.

Bzzt! Security reports that there is nothing apparently amiss within the bay. They had to step out of the bay in order to relay the report. They are continuing to investigate.

Bzzt! The EM anomaly has ended, Captain.

Bzzt! The security team asks if they can return to their posts. PO3 Wolfe has suggested that we take a sample from the tanks for analysis in case there has been any change within them.

Go ahead and comply with PO3 Wolfe's suggestion. Take 3 samples from each tank and have everyone return to their posts after a secondary sweep. Have PO3 Wolfe personally deliver the samples for analysis. Thank you.

Bzzt! Captain? PO3 Wolfe reports that all tanks are empty. This would be highly unlikely as all chemical thrusters are checked before leaving port as per SOP.

Bzzt! Captain, she has asked me to check the sensors within. It appears that the EM anomaly caused an error within them. Given that we had an EM anomaly within Chemical Thruster Bank Starboard 4 shortly after construction of the station started, I cannot be certain when the LOX and LH were drained.

bzzt! I'm glad that we found this out! If I had to make any emergency maneuvers it would have been problematic to discover that they were empty!

Tell her to go ahead and check the interior sensors, but make sure she follows each and every safety protocol in the book. Hell, make some up just for good measure. Thruster fuel is not a matter to be taken lightly.

Bzzt! CN Wolfe confirmed that the sensors in Chemical Thruster Bank Starboard 4 are damaged. As well, she has physically entered LOX tank 18. She reports that the entire interior has been blackened. There appear to be four digit alphanumeric codes written across the interior. One letter and three numbers.

Bzzt! PO3 Wolfe reports that LH tank 9 is in the same condition, though the numbers seem to be different. She has also reported finding what appears to be small metal sculptures inside. They are as follows: One sculpture of a bouquet of flowers, one Pinophyta tree sculpture, one pistol sculpture, twelve knife sculptures (sharp), one medallion (blank), one set of dog tags (blank), three identical rifle sculptures, one canine sculpture, and one ballerina sculpture.

Can she report what those text strings were?

Also, could she see where the metal from the sculptures could have come from?
