During April of 1520 in the Sol (Terran) System while the Nimbus Station and several other fleet elements from Solas Tempus were also present, the USS Akron was identified as appearing in the system while phased in an very peculiar way. Several ships identified that the vessel was very likely to be specifically configured to have a continuously cycling phase variation of several microseconds before and after being in sync with real time. The vessel was discovered to be moving at a slow rate of speed on a linear trajectory through the system cycling from one end (negative displacement) to the other (positive displacement) in a regular interval.
Initial Actions
The INV Cabur, INV New Hope, and the Fabber Vulcan were on site and used a drone to board the vessel when it's phase variance was at 0. They lost signal from the drone after a short time, discovering that an unknown substance was on several consoles in engineering and there was a considerable amount of control damage to the engineering deck. Several bodies were also found that suggested some kind of struggle may have occurred. The drone was retrieved and then an unknown computer virus was activated and the drone itself produced a specifically coded sequence of light bursts which overloaded several systems on the Cabur and New Hope. This lead to the virus being introduced to both vessels. Both vessels were able to repel the virus and resume normal operations. The probe itself was destroyed.
On the INV Cabur a particular R2-Droid successfully destroyed the ability for the virus to propagate through the systems by uncoupling several control circuits and causing a plasma explosion in the transporter room was was infected. This act very likely saved the ship.
