Above SX-08
Below the Spark the planets dark side was illuminated by frequent massive electrical discharges. Some of them were massive illuminating large portions of the sky below, while others were smaller.
Unci, my first planetary landing and it has to be into a massive storm system. Someone has a cruel sense of humor. Raquel thought to herself.
"I can't say about the melting, but I would be willing to bet that those storms below are a result of the sun's increased activity. Beginning descent." she said as her hands brought the Transporter onto the trajectory that Sakura had pulled up. A quick check assured her that the course was sufficient.
She looked at her friend and gave a wink, "I hope everyone has a strong constitution, we are in for a hell of a ride."

Kenshin watching the discharges below made some adjustment to the ships systems. Isolating any non-essential systems from possible electrical damage.
"Kage, keep a close eye on the shields, we get hit by some of those major strikes and they are going to start draining. I've allocated some of the Sparks reserve power to your command to reinforce the shields." he said adjusting his shoulder straps to ensure he was securely in place.
