With the new 'Eye' drone now in your databases you begin production immediately, setting the fighter factory to assemble three of them before turning your attention to the Munition Fabrication Deck. The structure wasn't made to build anything but the simplest of weapons and thankfully the Yulith-Pattern turns out to be one of those weapons, you queue up one and a decent amount of ammunition to go with it before turning to the SCDs. The nine drones obediently and immediately jump to action as you command the construction of a third drone bay, by the time the scout drones are done a massive chunk of the construction is already complete.
Science wise you devote the lab to the design of a Solar Array Complex to generate a much greater supply of power, and a Basic gravitational and geosurvey array. You attempt to design an Advanced Fab Unit but it proves far to complex to you at the moment, however your progress there does lead to a surprise breakthrough whereupon you believe you've managed to produce a Basic Fab Unit blueprint. While only one of the projects has been completed you feel you're progressing quickly, who knows soon enough you rival what once existed here though you still have no clue what that might have been ...
With your new scout drones finally completed you dispatch two of them to the surface of the moon in the direction of where that energy reading anomaly occurred in the hopes of finding something. It takes roughly an hour for them to reach the sight, but what they find is quite interesting, the bare rock of the planet is torn to shreds and scorched in places while scattered about the surface hear a handful of metal corpses are strewn about. These corpses are the remains of some form of tracked, and even a few wheeled vehicles from the looks of it, some of them are only slightly damaged while a few of the tracked ones are melted into something akin to flash frozen slag. As your drones move into take a closer look red bolts of energy begin to tear from the darkness all around, burning the air and narrowly missing the two drones who quickly turn tail and flee. This proves that something is down there, but from the looks of it they certainly aren't friendly ...
Designation: Aegis or Aegis Station 22
Condition: Perfect
Shell: Derelict Defense Network Station 22
Shell Internal Space: Roughly 50% of your Shell is empty and can be used to store further facilities.
Station Hull Status
Central Spike Hull: Good Condition, mild damage and a handful of hull breaches but not to much.
First Ring's Hull: Poor Condition, around a third of the ring has been torn to shreds or fallen away at some point, a large amount of maintenance and repairs will need to be done. Not to mention manufacturing new segments to replace the lost segments in the ring.
Second Ring's Hull: Average Condition, the ring is mostly intact and has been restored to optimal condition though large sections are definitely missing.
Third Ring's Hull: Average Condition, only one or two sections of the ring are gone and for the most part the damage to this is mostly superficial with a handful of hull breaches.
