Third day of duty.
The 21st Squadron had set up their equipment on the western side of the SSS expedition site. They chose this location as it afforded a clear path for the fighters to take off an land on their daily patrols.
The ruins were not of a primitive culture, the SSS believed that the race who made this city had reached for the stars. The portion that was above ground was extensive. It easily covered several square miles. The expedition was proceeding methodically through them, cataloging what they found. They estimated that it would take years of study to just get it all photographed and indexed.
A group of the scientists had made a few forays into the forest, finding a wide range of plants and tracks of multiple animal species. During their first foray they took samples and made an discovery about the nature of the plants. They had an extremely high mineral content, with portions of the minerals being drawn in through the plants endotherm. The minerals were carried up through the trees xylem and stored in the leaves. The concentration of minerals was so high that it created interference with electronic signals and even RADAR.
A Tansaku-Class ship sat next to the improvised air strip that the Kawarime sat upon. It remained in case it was necessary to evacuate the expedition. Nine CRDM's were clustered at the edge of the ruins. and served as the working area for the scientists.
The weather patterns were temperate the day time temperature reaching a comfortable 24 degrees Celsius. In the evenings, after the sun had set and the twin moons had risen, a fog would roll out from the woods. Some evenings the fog was light and would settle creating a muffled quiet in the area. Occasionally the fog would roll in so dense that you could not see from one CRDM to another even though they were only five meters away.
Atsui had just left a meeting with the expedition leader in the Ke-P1-3a Control Center CRDM. On her way out she stopped to check the weather sensors. Going to be another quiet foggy night. she thought. As she left to return to the Ke-P1-5a - Sleeper CRDM that the squadron used as their billet.
She entered and grabbed a drink from the Ke-T8-M3102 Comfort Module they had installed and took a seat at the table to relax.
