Captain's log - Stardate 2261.945
Our destination appears to be a trinary star system and preliminary readings do show a planet in orbit that might be able to sustain life. I've already had Scott keeping the engines at maximum warp, but even so it will still be another day before we can establish orbit and try to determine what happened.
I've already promised Chekov that he will be part of the landing party. He like the thought of that - I could tell by the murderous twinkle in his eye. We'd better damn well find them alive.
