Carmichael Point

This is the 8th I.N.R.A. settlement that has been located.

HIP 16824 A 2 F (73.87, 61.87)

The audio logs inform us that this settlement was erected to lure a Thargoid into firing range. Sure enough a Thargoid craft was lured into range and weapons were fired. The logs do not clarify if the weapon was of a MyCoid nature, but I think it’s safe to say that this is the case.

Mothership

The scariest part of the audio logs is the fact that there is a mention of a different kind of Thargoid ship. It appears a Thargoid Mothership may have arrived and the ensuing battle didn’t go according to plan. Obviously the MyCoid weapon had been tested on a much smaller Thargoid craft. It also transpires that the weapon was ineffective against the Thargoid Mothership.

If the Thargoids take the bait, this facility should come under attack very soon. And when it does, we’ll find out if ouir new weapons are worth a damn.

It’s taken a lot of time and effort to make this place look like an important military site. I just hope they fall for it.

It’s about time we started fighting back.

Everyon’s on edge. It’s like seeing an approaching storm and waiting for it to break. The air is heavy with the threat of violence.

Maybe they didn’t take the bait? Maybe we hid it too well? Or maybe we didn’t hide it well enouigh. What if they realised this is a trap?

I suppose it’s too late to worry about that now. All we can do is watch the sky, and wait.

Contact confirmed! Thargoids 1,000 light seconds from site and closing. Ready all weapon systems and prepare to fire on my order. We’ve only got one shot at this and I don’t want to miss.

Wait… wait. What is that? That’s not a regular Thargoid ship. It’s huge.

Will somebody scan that thing! And tell command we’ve got a mothership here. Get them the data as soon as possible.

All right, all right, that’s close enought. Fire all batteries!
