The Engine of Aurotharius (Part Two)

October 20

Reports from other members of the team arrived.

To: Major Pepper Siamendes, UAP Special Investigations Unit.

Reference: Spacing Guild Centavos Ignition Reactor

Subject: Further Analysis

Dear Major,

It did not take long to calibrate the navigational computer to calculate where the particle emitter was pointing from the Spacing Guild Centavos Ignition Reactor. Hand calculations confirmed what I suspected from sky observation, the beam is pointed directly to the Taurus constellation. The navigational computer refined the numbers to indicate that it is pointing directly at 34 Tauri.

I am taking a transport back to 34 Tauri to inspect the antimatter collection arrays at Heinlein. I have some contacts in the High Energy Lepton Project (HELP). I will see if they have any knowledge about exotic particle creation and some aspects of condensed matter physics that may be at play here.

I will be in contact soon.

Regards,

Doctor Qui Von Wer Foreman Serendipity, PhD.

P.S. I gave your coroner a prototype of the proton beam emitter to test in the field against the android scourge. It should hopefully knock out the damned morovec's mechanicals and terminate their function while still allowing retrieval of useful information.

From: Major Aodhfionn Murcastle, UAP Turrent's Moon Monitoring Post

To: Major Pepper Siamendes, UAP Special Investigations Unit.

I have a directive from Special Projects to inform you in the event of certain classes of phenomenon.

Part of our monitoring station is an Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS), a particle physics module designed to search for various types of unusual matter by measuring cosmic rays.

We recently changed the orientation of the AMS and while nothing is yet conclusive, a recent spike in the charged particles indicates the possibility of Weak Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs).

I have not further information regarding this phenomenon. We are launching probes to get clearer readings and to triangulate to pinpoint a source. I do not know why Special Projects directed I told you, other that this is part of the Colchester Protocols.

Sincerely,

Major Aodhfionn Murcastle, UAP
