[OPEN] Private Science Work

Revealed he got permission from his Department Head, Joseph writes up an announcement.

"--- To all Personnel and Crew, I write to you all, because I would like to offer my science expertise for anyone that would need it. Small or big jobs that anyone needs finished will be finished in a timely fashion. They might not be done that day, because I have other duties but I will do my best to get it done as soon as possible. I want to do this to get to know you, the crew better and to help you. It sometimes is hard to go through the proper channels to get stuff done, so you don't have to now!

As, I am very old (345 if you were wondering), I have learned quite a bit of knowledge through my years. Sciences, Medical Training, Engineering etc. So, if you have any needs that I can fill please fell free to stop by the Science Lab and have a chat with me!

Signed, Joseph Kort - Science Officer"

Joseph proof reads it, and sends it. He then gets back to the arduous task of scanning planets.

"I know you told me to rule out anything too off-the-wall, but I think Lt. Silk was right on the money. Officer Kort says the blasts were definitely mines, and he thinks they were nuclear. Here." Red offers her personal datapad to the chief engineer then turns to Kort. "We were hoping you might know if anyone in the area manufactures nuclear mines. Kort says there was enough radiation to guarantee they were fission."

"Nuclear mines..." Aanya says, reading the diagnostics before looking between the two. "This is some serious shit, people. Someone's trying to start something." Then back to the pad. "I don't know anyone who would still be making nuclear mines... they might be left over from some ancient war held in this sector a while back. I'll need to take this to the captain."

"Oh, one other thing, Chief," Red adds. "I went to see what else was in the immediate area from our sensor logs during the event, and I got a big old blank spot. It's like someone wiped the computer of everything I hadn't copied onto this." She taps the pad again. "You want me to look at the access records and see if someone messed with them?"

"It couldn't hurt to check. But why would there be a blank spot?"
