Intergalactic Summit

Pilots;

The following findings have been made during our operations beginning 1230hrs YC118.03.09. As always, my thanks to the pilots who on such short notice joined our task force; without you, this report would not be possible.

Vigilant Tyrannos forces now have identifiable Sleeper components; while the salvage from these vessels remains beyond our ability to parse in any meaningful way, we are now able to retrieve ancient coordinate databases, data libraries, and Hikanta Tyrannos wrecks appear to also possess Sleeper Drone AI Nexuses, presumably as an adjunct to the Hikanta Tyrannos pilot.

Additionally, schematics for a combined form of the Drifter Hive Elements were recovered from Hikanta Tyrannos wrecks. Construction is underway in a hot lab facility.

The purpose of this Coalesced Element remains unknown. However, this may provide us further insight into the purpose or method of action of the Drifter Hive Elements themselves. Further reports will follow.

Additionally, as reported in the Scope presumably through Sisters scouting, the Hives transfer gates are no longer locked. We can only assume that either the Sisters have destroyed the locking devices, or else we've broken the gate encryption to such a degree that the door hangs open, effectively.

Several new small structures within the Hive have been identified, namely Hive Alignment Units, such as this one. Accessing these proved more difficult than accessing the gate locks, and provided us with unknown mathematical sequences, such as these. Couriered deeper into the facility, we were then able to use these to produce or retrieve Vigilant Tyrannos neurochemical enhancers from a repository in the nexus or anomaly zone. The advisability of feeding alignment sequences into an area subject to a massive spatial distortion is, of course, a matter of debate. Additional samples of these alignment sequences are currently being retrieved for analysis in Empire space.

We are developing a testing schema for the Drifter boosters at this time.

Additional reports will follow this preliminary one.

I'd like to thank ARC for making this information public. I appreciate the work your people are doing in collecting this information and the transparency your organization has displayed regarding it's findings and methods.

Awesome work.

Good luck!!!!

The work you and your compatriots are performing is exemplary. It gives hope to a day in the not too distant future when Capsuleers will perhaps drop the shackles of "Empire Politics" and start to forge a new future for the New Eden Cluster. I am heartened to see the diverse elements all coming together to work for the greater good, all based on learning real hard facts and then dispersing them to all equally.

It's the faint glimmering that precedes a new dawn, thank you and please continue.

Something tells me that the Antipharmakon substances weren't intended by the Drifters to be used as neural boosters. This is apparent to me in the case of Antipharmakon Toxot, which enhances what appears to be missile flight time. I do not recall hearing of Drifters utilising missiles.

What are the Drifters using these substances for, in actuality?
