    Krystal: The problem is we're not talking about a tack on job. Something like this means an extensive refit to integrate it into existing systems, but to also be able to use it accurately without risk of damage to the ship using it.

    Rose: Was this supposed to be like the NORAD Bases in the High Arctic? Early Warning System?

    On the Turner, orbiting the station.

    Ishikawa: Boss, we got a calls from Starfleet.

    RAdm Rose: Put it on.

    Adm Quinn's face shows up: RAdm O'Connell. ]See you are cooling your heels.

    RAdm Rose: Well, Tzenkethi aren't doing anything, and Ambassador Troi isn't coming back yet, yeah. got crews Helping with cleanup and repair on K-13.

    Adm Quinn: Good, we got a situation near you. We lost comms with the USS Madison. She was checking out the Nexus, trying to pinpoint the location fo the USS Forrestal, who had been lost in the Nexus for a while. I want a couple of ship from the TFJ to check it out and help USS Challenger. Still need TFJ to handle the Tzenkethi, so try to limit the number fo ships going.

    RAdm Rose: Why me? Jess would be commander of the TF.

    Adm Quinn: Becuase i had you on speed dial.

    RAdm Rose: Because of Capt Shon's report.

    Adm Quinn: That too. Report it to Adm O'Connell, find a way to do both. It will take the Challenger a day to get into position, so you got a little time before you shove off. Adm Quinn out.

    RAdm Rose gets up: Im going to the station and report to Jess. (She gets to the turbolift)

    RAdm Rose: So what is Quinn waiting for? I thought the next time i get a call from him, he would dress me down like a first year cadet. (Door opens, and she walks out to the teleport room) Am I missing something?

    (Except for the fact that the tech in game is still Star Trek tech. We're talking about installing a completely different tech base propulsion system that runs on Tylium. It would be like trying to install a Singularity Core instead of a Matter/Antimatter Reactor. Warp Cores basically share similar enough form factors to be dang near plug and play. We'd run into the same issue if we tried to install a Mass Effect drive into the Lexington. Different tech from a different source, with neither side really knowing how to talk to each other like a hot swap can.)

    Admiral Adama: .... Perhaps there might be an alternative, I remember something called Transwarp Drive... New Ragnar Anchorage is about 80 LY away in the direction of the galactic northeast of our position. How quickly can your ships get there using it?

    depends on the type of transwarp used - the kind used by the borg and voth would cover that distance in about 20 minutes, but there's a type of transwarp that uses a special form of dilithium that can allow for essentially infinite velocity...and unfortunately, has some rather nasty side effects​​

    Admiral Adama: I'll inform Tyrol that the Jump Drive refitting would take too long and in this crisis, time is of the essense. In any case, we best make for New Ragnar Anchorage. *passes over two sheets of printed paper with New Ragnar Anchorage's co-ordinates to Jade and O'Connor* I only have two sheets because of the fact that we didn't expect Rakesh and Henha's arrival. Simply copy the co-ordinates on that sheet and feed them said co-ordinates.

    (Galactica still uses printed paper and basic computers and radio wireless because it's almost 50 years old, and the fact that Adama has the standing order; no networked systems on board Galactica. Columbia and Athena are actually considerably newer and the same class as Galactica, but they are not the same ships as the ones mentioned in the series or in Columbia's case, one was a Jupiter-class battlestar and the other was a Mercury, both destroyed, this is the third one. Atlantia's a Mercury like Pegasus, but all Battlestars except for Pegasus and Galactica after settlement of the new colonies of Kobol, are fitted with more advanced tech, but still not anywhere near 25th century Starfleet tech level. But yeah, Galactica is pretty old...
    ... Wow that was a long OOC)
