[b][right]DAEDALUS // UNKNOWN SPACE[/right][/b] The Daedalus pivoted on as laser fire started to strafe their shields. There was some drain but managing to miss the most of it it was nothing major. Caldwell turned his attention to Marks. "Lock target but don't fire back. We have limited ordinance and I won't be convinced we should have taken part in this fight until Sheppard's team is back with the data they're trying to retrieve." Cooper then spoke having Caldwell pivot his chair to face her. "Uh, Sir?" "What is it, Captain?" "We've got some strange energy readings emanating from empty space." She brought them up onscreen and Caldwell focused on them. "They're similar to the readings given off vessels dropping from Hyperspace, but there's no ship there. Just empty space." Caldwell looked at the screen as if focusing on it anymore would give him answers. He hit the comm button to the control room in the bowels of the ship. "Doctor Novak." "Yes Colonel?" The scientists' wirey voice came through the speakers. "We're sending you down some strange energy readings, I'd like you and Hermoid to take a look at it and let me know what you think." "We'll get right on it Colonel." "As fast as possible please."
