Mission: Mission 1: Impact
Location: Various Locations - Starbase 400
Timeline: 1900Hrs - June 8th, 2388

The Dockmaster was an older Starfleet Officer who was highly experienced,
he watched over the dozen stations which were directly in front of him and
all of them were manned at all times as the Control tower had direct
responsibility for all comings and goings around Starbase 400, Federation
starships also listened to him, hell even Admiral Bremer listened to him
but when the Admiral went somewhere, he cleared away enough traffic to
ensure the Admiral and whatever he had going with him could get going to
a minimum of fuss.

This usually left the Senior Chief with about four hours of work to untangle
a complete unholy mess from such a departure but he was okay with that, the
Admiral, after all, was a busy man and had places to go, things to do
and wrongs to right or so the old saying went.

He was interrupted from his reverie when he heard one of his younger officers
speaking into an open comline. "Confirmed USS Courageous, you are cleared
to approach the base and drop off one shuttle, what are your intentions after
that?"

"Intentions are to depart and transit out of this sector to study a small
a gaseous anomaly which has recently appeared near the Neutral zone." came
the response from an officer who had an odd accent, it took the Senior Chief
a moment to place it and then he smiled as it came to him, this could only
be Commander Neban Hular, the Exec of the USS Courageous.

He walked over as he came to a stop next to the officer in question who
indicated with his hands as he brought up the sector map and sure enough
there was a federation combadge, marked in gold which meant a large starship
was approaching the system at high warp.

The Chief tapped the combadge once as the letters and numbers began to appear before him as if conjured by magic. "USS COURAGEOUS - NCC-71932".

"Long before she arrives?"

"About ten minutes Chief, she's dropping off a shuttle then departing again."

The Chief nodded. "Very well. Who's the most senior officer available on base?"

The Ensign thought about it. "Admiral T'Lar and Captains Clifford and Greenwood"

The Chief considered it. "Send a message to all three and advise them of who's coming to visit. Let's hope Jake Yamaguchi is not the type to stand on ceremony."
