Speculation is rife at Obsidian Orbital this morning following a close-quarters encounter with an unidentified Diamondback Explorer. According to Chloe Anders, a member of the surveillance team at Christian Dock, the mysterious vessel came within 10 kilometres of the station while performing what was described as a “high-speed pass”:

“I saw it approach and assumed it was about to submit a docking request, but instead it just started circling the station. It had an unusual designation – “S6: 7″ – so I tried hailing it, but there was no response. Then our sensors lit up. I couldn’t believe it – the damned thing was scanning the station! I told the weapons team to stand by, but the next thing I knew, it was gone.”

Asked for her opinion of the vessel’s purpose, Anders said: “I know it sounds crazy, but when I saw it circling the station like that, the only thing I could think was that it was looking for something.”
