Scene 1: Arriving at JOS Aquila
__________________________
To: Mitch Riffost, Chief Inspector, Periphery Affairs
FW: Aalard Sterson, Bram Tayley, Periphery Affairs
From: Arien Mires, Assistant Research and Development Coordinator,
AHC Technologies
Subject: Inspection of JOS Aquila
Date: 3-53-43 G.S.
This is a formal notice from AHC Technologies.
Three months ago, an AHC Technologies Shipment Team was unable to make contact with the AHCT Jovian Orbital Station (JOS)
Aquila
. The commander of the shipment vessel, Liane Terson, attempted to contact the bridge in order to get access to the Space Station's landing docks and hulls. However there was no response by either the bridge or the main control system of JOS
Aquila
. The system did not respond to any override codes or emergency functions.
The Executive Board of AHC Technologies has contacted the Governor of Periphery Affairs to order an inspection of JOS
Aquila
. The inspection is to act primarily as a search and rescue mission for the AHCT employee, DR. IVAN GRAMART, with a secondary objective of recovering exclusive AHCT Intellectual Properties.
Interference from the JOS
Aquila
main control system and from environment factors in Jovian Orbit has made estimating the current status within the station difficult to AHCT at this time. It is unknown whether a technical or personnel accident is responsible for the situation or if sabotage from an outside entity has led to the situation at hand.
Further orders may be relayed to the Inspection Bureau of Periphery Affairs if more information is gathered by AHCT officials.
Technical specifications and override codes have been provided and attached to this file.

Bram was waiting patiently in the cruiser bridge. Sitting by the large monitor, he watched as the ship's engines attempted to slow down the craft. The computer had arrived in proximity to JOS Aquila, however a manual pilot would have to dock the ship. Likewise they had to make some sort of connection with the silent station itself.
The two of them, Bram and Aalard, had been instructed to investigate the conditions on JOS Aquila. Bram had worked alongside Aalard multiple times before. They weren't necessarily partners but they both were employees of the Inspection Bureau of Periphery Affairs, a very small government agency under the Governor of Periphery Affairs. Their job was to typically investigate issues that extended beyond Martian Space. This included investigating crimes aboard vessels traveling between Earth and Mars but also inspecting colonies and work stations within the asteroid belt. There were however rarer missions, like this one, that sent them farther.
Jovian space was not something Bram was accustomed to when it came to the job. This was the farthest he had ever moved in the solar system. He was schedule once before to head into Jovian space, but that job was given to a more senior inspector. The Aquila Orbital Station was situated near the Jovian moon Ganymede. Visuals were breath-taking when Bram looked at through the monitor. He found himself be drawn to the picture on the screen more and more as time progressed. Yet it may have just been the awakening process. Sleeping for six solid weeks could do that for you. They weren't able to stop at any of the asteroid docks near Ceres in the Asteroid Belt because of the path they had to take. So they used Mars' gravity to slingshot them out.
