Planetary Press: Remote outpost decimated!
Unprovoked attack leaves outpost in ruins; dozens feared dead.
PP NewsWire Saturn Lagrange Station 1: At Galactic noon (3:28 am SL1 time) the Planetary Press received word that the scientific outpost at Devan 3 has been destroyed.
This base was set up over a year ago to study stellar formation and related wormhole formations in the stellar breeding grounds within the Horse Head nebula. Home to over a dozen scientists and technologist, this base was expected to help answer questions on worm hole technology with the discovery of a stable worm hole last year by Captain Cook aboard the Adfecta out in the Sirius sector.
The loss of this peaceful scientific base has sent a wave of concern and contempt throughout the United Solar Planetary Federation.
Little is know at this time, but PP reporters have determined that this attack was sent out from the Tulnak empire, deep with in the Horse Head nebula. This is home to the xenophobic race of beings who have maintained an uneasy truce with the USPF since the return of their ship in the Alien8 Incident over 2 years ago.
Reports indicate that a battalion of unknown battle ships entered the ungoverned space where the base is located. Reports indicate that the battle was short and complete as the base was totally decimated and the fate of the 17 base personnel is unknown.
In light of the Alien8 Incident, these new, ominous battle ships have been christened Decim8 and represent a new, potential threat to the USPF.
Few details are known of this disaster, and even less of the aliens who perpetrated it. The PP will do their best to keep the people of the USPF informed as details become clear.
PP end Transmission concluded 111709-SL1
