Kawarda stared at the three lines that remained on the display. He had employed Gal'yk's third law and recalculated the probabilities in 122 scenarios. There could be no doubt that one of these remaining vectors had been the one the meteorite had followed, and regardless of which it was, the implications were ... significant.
He tapped his communicator, and spoke:
Kawarda: =/\= Ensign Kawarda to Ensign Jovenan. =/\=
Jovenan: =/\= Response =/\=
Kawarda: =/\= Ensign, the task to which you set me is complete. I am sending you the results, but I believe you should be discrete with them until we know more. I will leave it to your discretion as to whether you think the findings are pivotal enough to bring to Commander MacKenzie's attention. =/\=
Jovenan: =/\= Response =/\=
Kawarda: =/\= Understood. Kawarda out. =/\=
He tapped SEND on the PADD in his hand, transmitting the report directly to Ensign Jovenan's PADD.

BEGIN REPORT
Science Officer: Ensign Kahwa'Ra-De
Subject: Telemetry Analysis of Meteor-to-Meteorite D-7883g(term)
Summary:
Known: Meteor followed natural intra-stellar orbital path until 240002.18 2214.25hrs
Possibility 1: At precisely 2214.26hrs, a force of 18.2 kilojoules was exerted in either
an attracting or repelling force upon the then-meteor. (form of force is
unknown, and therefore point of origin cannot be calculated to greater
than 50% confidence.)
Probability: 82.35%
Possibility 2: At precisely 2214.26hrs, an impact of an object with mass and speed
equalling 18.5 kilojules caused both rotation and modification of vector
of the meteor.
Probability: 74.16%
Possibility 3: D-7883g(term) encountered a subspace anomaly resulting from a
quantum bubble, which redirected the meteor to an impact vector with
the Da'al homeworld.
Probability: 44.51%
Synthesis: Regardless of the possibility, there is a 99.84% probability meteorite
D-7883g(term) was redirected intentionally to impact the Da'al homeworld.
Motivation, perpetrators, methodology, and current status are unknown, and cannot
be extrapolated from current dataset.
