Sisko watched the Wormhole on Ops' main screen and the *Eureka Maru* popped out. Except for the lack of warp nacelles, it struck him as indistinguishable from the merchant ships that came to DS9.
Beka's voice came through the com: "We're through, DS9, and we have a visual on you."
Dylan came on the channel: "Anti-proton containment looks good." A pause. "And Beka's hair has not become a rainbow."
Sisko turned to O'Brien. "Chief?"
"Checking." O'Brien focused on his sensors. "I'm showing the same here: Their antimatter containment looks solid. Their inertial dampers and structural integrity are holding too." He looked up. "Over all, I'd say she came through in better shape than even some Starfleet vessels."
Dax said, "It may be because of the demands of their FTL drive. We should study their technology and see what could be applied here."
"First things first," Sisko said. "Major? Clear the *Eureka Maru* to land in hangar two."
