Shuttlebay ( Open )

The shuttlebay was of a predictably reversed layout from that to which Spock was accustomed. The shift was a simple one, however, and she acclimated to it almost immediately. It took only a brief few moments before Spock located an acceptable shuttle and began the forms required. They were completed expediently and Spock assigned the two Yeoman on duty to the task of checking the supplies. As they did so, Spock moved to the bay console and checked the sensor alignments of the craft.

She did not need to glance at the chronometer to know the time. She had approximately 1.32 hours before the remainder of the team were required to be present. Ideally the checks she was engaged in would only occupy 35% of that time period, leaving the remainder for open study of the scientific and linguistic data the Enterprise had assembled.

The message the alien sent out seemed friendly enough, and Jim confirmed it with Uhura. The creatures were impressive and beautiful, and Jim looked forward to learning more. He allowed everyone to branch out, within sight for now, giving them ten minutes to record preliminary data before they headed back and let the Enterprise know that they were welcome.

Anna and Lieutenant Hamilton fanned out, turning their tricorders on the massive gate that enclosed the village and also on the area around it. The aliens and their village were both beautiful and intriguing, and Anna welcomed the chance to learn more about them.
