[@supertinyking] considering the scouting party would be equiped with scanners and not be complete retards from some b movie horror flick, they bombard the dead from orbit, not touching that shit with a ten foot pole after what happened last time, leaving only shepard to be teleported onto the ship in a confinement pod before being questioned and diagnostics run. "what happened to your people shepard?" the captain asks evenly, the planet's warp signatures scanned and traced, any and all portals or teleportations found, traced, tracked, and catalouged, leaving nothing hidden while the entire planet is subjected to a rapid degredation process, completely removing any remaining corpses or biological matter at all before being re-terra formed.
