Exploration Camp JSPR-003 is an abandoned settlement on Col 285 Sector OZ-N c7-13 BC 3 a at 59.3170, -62.2233.
This site has the same name, layout, and backstory as the site on Col 359 Sector RY-H d10-58 B 3 a.
Around the settlement there are four Settlement Comms Log Uplink points, scanning them gives background to the reason for its abandonment:
LEAVE A LIGHT ON 1/4
Personal Log:It’s been an exciting journey so far. Commander Norris and the team are saying that these geological features and the data we’re getting back from them could rethink the way we look for alien life or terraforming planets for habitation.
The whole team has gone to analyise the latest site and take samples. I’m holding the fort. As the Habitation Engineer it’s my job to make sure everything in camp is working correctly and the habs and equipement are
maintained.Not as exciting as ground break geological science, but essential for a project this far out in space.
LEAVE A LIGHT ON 2/4
Personal Log:Something doesn’t fee I right. I’ve lost ocntact with the science team.
Their last transmission was to report they had reached the site and were starting the analysis.
That was 10 hours ago.
If I’ve not heard anything in the next couple of hours I’m calling this in.
LEAVE A LIGHT ON 3/4
Communication Log:This is Expedition JSPR-003.
Communications lost with science survey team.
12 hours since last contact.
Please Advise
Command do you read me?
What the hell?
Command come in, are you there?
Someone please pick up!
LEAVE A LIGHT ON 4/4
Personal Log:This is so messed up. The comms are completely down, I can’t get a signal in or out. Something out there is disrupting the communications.
It’s now been over 24 hours since last contact and I can’t get hold of command. I just have to hope one of my mesages got through.
I’ve decided to go an look for the team. I have to find out if they are ok, I can’t leave them out there if they need my help.
I’ve set a repeating message for the rescue team, leaving a light on so to speak.
With luck I’ll be back soon with the rest of the team.
There are Engineer Materials scattered around the ground, and within the settlement there is a Data Point which may be scanned for an Intel Package, and for Engineer Data.
