(( Bridge - Constitution )) 

It took a moment before there was another series of crackles and fizzes, hisses and pops. But this time Jalana couldn't even make up single sounds. She swore in Trill under her breath, of course. 

T'Seva: Sorry...I'm...  

T'Aven: ::inclining her head.:: The interference must be too strong for one enhancer. I suggest to place out one or two from our side. 

T'Seva: We can do that. Do you have a plan? 

T'Aven: We send an enhancer out and when the signal gets weaker hold it in that position and send out another to serve as a piggyback between the enhancer near us and the one on the surface. It may be possible to lengthen the signal like that to enable communications. 

T'Seva: It seems worth a try.

Rajel: Hearing how distorted it is we still would not be able to beam the teams in an emergency but we could at least communicate basic messages. 

T'Seva: I wasn't expecting we'd get transporters.

Rajel: Alright let's do that. T'Seva focus on the bees, what is their status? T'Aven, get on the enchancers. 

The Vulcan nodded and turned around once more to access the inventory and the location of where they were stored, before she got up from her seat and left the bridge. 

T'Seva: I would assume at least one person down there knows morse code, for example. It might pierce the interference better than spoken communication. Once we have the enhancers out, if its still bad, I'll send a message in that.

Jalana was confused for a moment since this was not the status she had been asking for but could understand the focus on the pressing issue and nodded. 

Rajel: Worth a try if the other idea fails. Backups are never wrong. ::She smiled::

T'Seva: I hope they're doing okay down there.

Rajel: ::A long exhale:: Me too. But whatever they are facing, they'll excel. They are ... 

T'Seva: Best crew in the fleet, Commodore.

Jalana looked to T'Seve adn returned her smile. 

Rajel: That they are. ::She paused before speaking again.:: Speaking of best crew. How are our bees doing? 

T'Seva: Response 

Rajel: ::Nodding:: Good, we should - 

Shimisi: =/\= Shimisi to the bridge =/\=

Jalana tapped on the comm badge instead of the button on the arm rest because she would have to get up from the beanbag chair first. 

Rajel: =/\= Bridge her, what do you have for me, Mingxing. =/\=

Shimisi: =/\= We've determined that the Stellar Cartography lab would be the best place to examine the sample you get. So'Mior is compiling data and will examine the sample once we get it. =/\=

Rajel: =/\= Great news. Dizzy and Ba'el have gone out with our worker bees to get you some samples for analyzing. =/\=

Shimisi: =/\= I'll help him to set up the lab, just give us a warning when you have the sample.

Rajel: =/\= Alright. I'll contact them to make sure they beam the samples right to Stellar Cartography when they are done. =/\=

Shimisi/So'Mior/T'Seva: Response

Rajel: =/\= Got it, good work you two. Bridge out. =/\=

T'Seva: Response 

Rajel: Yes, with the preliminary scans and the samples we should find out what is making our life so difficult here. Can you inform Dizzy and Ba'el where to beam their samples?

T'Seva: Response

With a smile Jalana pulled herself out of the bean bag chair, wanting to stretch her legs a little. While T'Seva checked with the worker bees she moved to the center chair. 

Rajel: Computer load chair configuration Rajel 5. 

The center chair briefly disappeared and a new version appeared in its place. That one had a more loose arm that she now could pull towards herself to check the controls and screens without having to sit down in it. Just when she activated the screen she was shown an incoming signal. With a button click it showed as coming from the planet again. But this was different. She looked up to T'Seva seeing that she was still talking with their guys out there she checked herself what it was about and played the audio. 

It was difficult to make out, just random syllables and .. numbers? She furrowed her brows and was about to rewind the message when she realized it was a repeated message. And the second time she heard different syllables. Now with her interest piqued she sat down and pulled up another screen on the other arm and wrote down what she heard. 

T'Seva: Response 

Rajel: We received an automated repeating message from one of the teams. It's defragged like a Sehlat got its claws on it, but with the repetition different parts of the same message are decipherable. 

T'Seva: Response 

Rajel: So far I put together a part of a coordinate, waiting for another repetition to put it together. They also have geothermal heat, some lifeform with lightning rod ..something, bad weather and something about a beach. To get all this I had to listen to it four times. 

T'Seva: Response 

Rajel: Yes, hope with the signal enhancers we can get something better back to them. Check with T'Aven. Once I have the full coordinate we may have something to aim our signal at. 

T'Seva: Response
