Strange ship













A ship looking much like a Solar Sail ship appeared in the Navy Yard. The appearance coincides with an energy flux in the Time Tunnel during recent tests. The craft was boarded by Naval Intelligence and is unoccupied. The navigation consol was read and craft recently held three passengers one was named TRON the other entries are some what distorted but a collision was also noted in the log book caused by something called a “Master Control Program”. There are energy beams passing through the craft one going in the front and one leaving in the back. The beam is pure energy but with a pulsing 0 and 1 pattern. The anomaly causing the craft to be in the Navy Yard is stable but there is no indication the object poses a threat to Off-world. Oddly, there was a reference to another mystery device present in the Yard last year.

New Racer Created from Old Records


Using the records recovered from the Tracy Space Coupe, the Off World Navy Engineer Corps recreated a racing craft. These racers were reportedly used on a plannet called Tataouine, named for a real Tunisian town on ancient earth. The racer was driven by the legendary Skywalker of myth. While the Navy historical group is certian that no such person existed, they point out that men of earth were prone to name things after mythological heros and the gods of old. Never the less the craft does move as shown in the records, it is harder to control than depicted.

These craft were not capable of flight at significant altitude but were clocked at speeds exceeding 800kph. Additional data was recovered as well leaving hope that a second craft may be constructed and the art of racing these fine machines may grace the frozen deserts of Off World.

More important, are four enhanced pulse cannons, the very latest in distructive power and range. Engine modification are also completed. Being the fastest ship in the fleet, she will extend the Navy's ability for command and control to the edge of the solar system.

HMS Gloriana Arrives


HMS Gloriana, having been overtaken by pirates last week, was recovered intact. Furniture and appointments were missing, no doubt sold for parts. Fortunately, the components of the Rolls Royce Hyper Drive were untouched. The Off World Navy will proceed to refit the Gloriana as a command and center. There were objections from the original owners however a recovered ship belongs to the finder under adjusted space maritime law. The original owners have lost a considerable investment and will not be compensated. The commander of the Off World Fleet, Lensman, stated “Freedom isn’t free”.

CY Icon Unearthed


A strange iridescent icon, found while the alien origin archeology team was conducting a dig in the excavations for a new building, is of terrestrial origin. Left on Off World centuries ago by a group calling themselves the Cy Award(psychic?) travelers, it confounds the experts. There was a prediction engraved on the back of the icon stating that a colony know as Off World was the “best community” in the universe for the year 2006. The inscription named all of the current builders in Off World. It is possible that the find is somehow associated with recent historical anomalies related to current operational time tunnel problems. How anyone on Earth that long ago could know of the Off World colony is a mystery.

The icon is on display in the Off World Museum. Anyone having additional knowledge of how the CY Award travelers mastered universal teleportation should report to the Off World Office of Naval Intelligence. Universe capable teleportation systems offer significant tactical advantaged to the Navy and the economy as a whole.
