0:00 - There's something odd about this planet. On the one hand, it's covered in rocks and sand and sterilized by radiation. But it also has life - water - bits of what our old scans showed. We have to figure out what happened here. Suvi's scans picked up several monolithic structures in this sector - as good a place to start as any.
0:51 - This area is dotted with the same kind of tech that killed dad. SAM's analyzing as we go. The monolith up ahead isn't like the tower on Habitat 7; it's bigger, more complex. And there are three of them. The others are a fair distance away but together they seem to face inwards toward - what? Nothing shows up on our scans.
1:25 - SAM and I are going to try to activate this device. SAM doesn't think it'll kill me, but I'm having the others keep their distance. We're not sure exactly what will happen - our best guess is that it's some kind of control or processing station. Our hope is that it's related to terraforming. Time to find out.
1:43 - Not dead. Sorry, Cora. This monolith now seems to be in communication with the two others. They're definitely triangulated on something, but no indication of what yet. Activating the other two may help.
2:26 - Second monolith activated. Nothing's happened yet.
3:03 - Third monolith activated. Suvi is reading activity on an island in the middle of the lake nearby. Investigating.
3:24 - Eos is full of surprises. For once, good ones. This almost looks like Prothean-level technology. A bridge from nowhere that leads to a vault from nowhere that leads to - who knows? Incredible. What is this? What does it do? Nettie's hoping to find weapons; she has a point, but I'm expecting to find much more than that.
5:17 - There's an underground world here. Even with SAM's help, we're barely beginning to understand how it all works. Dad said he could never really describe how it felt to step through that first relay; maybe it was like this. SAM has determined that the system is in lockdown for unknown reasons. We're going to try unlocking it. Be kind to us for once, Andromeda.
7:52 - We've already noticed changes. The radiation count dropped almost immediately. Temperatures are steadily decreasing planet-wide. Bots have emerged from somewhere and are busy with repairs to the other, smaller structures. Nettie is thrilled - some of the bots have weaponry. Fortunately, they don't seem to see us as a threat; hopefully they'll be less friendly if any Kett show up. We're going into low orbit to monitor things from there. I have a long report to make to Director Tann and a star chart to transmit. Or maybe it's a treasure map, with its big "X" smack in the middle of the empty part labelled "Here there be dragons."
