Day 12:
I feel like a fool today, I never once thought to analyze the ship's surroundings other than a basic threat scan. We’ve stumbled across something truly amazing here. I first noticed it when the combat team took a space walk to blow the hangar open, that went perfectly by the way, parasites never knew what hit ‘em. It was pretty trivial to lure them close to the wall by banging on the hull of the ship before blowing it open. Once we had access to the scouting vessels I was able to run some scans on the planet we’re orbiting. The first time I saw it I paid no mind to it as was clearly just a barren wasteland, but when we left the ship today it looked like it had transformed into a lush paradise complete with blue oceans and various land masses ranging from heavy snow cover to thick rainforests to arid deserts, almost reminded me of home for a bit; Then right as I had been entranced by its beauty it transformed into a hellish ball of fire right before my eyes. Initial scans run by one of our scouting vessels suggest the planet is caught in some sort of superposition almost as if it’s trying to be three different planets all at once. We need more data before we can know for sure what is happening here but this could be the discovery of a lifetime. I’ve informed the high command of our findings and they’re sending a research ship along with the rescue expedition. For now we just have to sit tight as they hone in on the beacon array we’ve assembled on the outer edges of the system.
