Konron: First Mission

Jerry_111_Elend

<div class="IPBDescription">A TSA Squad's first mission</div> A few months ago, the TSA have assigned a new class of FrontiersMen ships, the Konron Vessels. Unlike their more military transport oriented counter-parts, the Konron ship class is designed for exploration, diplomatic negotiations, and more. Company business ships embarked further throughout space, pushing the known lines once again. The TSA debated over a matter. They had plenty of ships, alright. But the ships that they owned and were producing were mainly designed for combat and squad transportation, and could only go so far. They needed an exploration ship, and that is where the Konron Ships were born.

Recently the first Frontiers-Men Konron Class Ship disembarked from Earth. The vessel's name is Seeker MK-2. Captain John Transla leads as commander of the ship, with 74 others onboard. Below are the statistics of the Seeker MK-2.

TSA COMMAND TO KONRON SEEKER MK-2

Second-In-Command TSA

Dear John Transla,

First of all, I would like to say congratulations to the Seeker MK-2's arrival into space, 2 days ago. The view of deep space must be glorified, and I hope you enjoy it so. The vessel check-up that was commenced a week before the ship's approval went well. Our engineers and inspectators scoured the ship in concern for the 75 crewpeople's safety. No problems were found, and I suspect due to your attentive sense of leadership. I truely think that you are the person to command the first ship of this kind. And now it is time to prove it so. We have a mission for you, Transla.

Several hours ago, our sensor stations detected a distress signel near the I.C.C (Independent Confederate Corporation) transporting areas. The distress message was reported to be filled with static, image blurred, and sound transmit. weak. The message was sent from the Intrepid 7 cargo ship, a cargo transport from the private organization Mineral Systematical. The distress signel was soonafter reported to Mineral Systematical headquarters, but they did not reply. Here is a text-based version of the distress signel. Note that a large portion of the text was loss, when the junk-code filtering went through.

Those are the clearest words, not all, but the clearest. Mr. Transla, your ship is to quickly depart to the location of Intrepid 7. They are obviously in trouble and need help. Upon arrival, your crew is to help the Intrepid 7 in any possible way. Sending in the coordinates now.
