"I do not have anything new since my conversation with Admiral Kitanya, but I will tell you what I had reported," t'Llhweiir said. �Admiral Garibaldi sent a woman to me earlier today who may have given us a useful piece of evidence. Tela stated that few months ago one of her associates saw Federation technology, including what he believed was at least one Federation starship in a port where it should not have been. He also told her that he believed that some of the crew was still alive.� t'Llhweiir stopped and handed Liridian a padd with the latest analytical reports. Then she continued. �Finally, she gave me the remains of a combadge. Our analysts have determined that it was a Starfleet combadge assigned to a Lieutenant Commander Kagan. Commander Kagan's last assignment was as the operations manager of the USS Athens. The Athens was declared missing approximately five years ago. Molecular analysis of the combadge�s components and the dirt and tarnish preclude it from being a piece of manufactured evidence (aka a combadge made to appear to be LCMR Kagan's). "Further analysis of the dirt on the combadge suggests that it came from, or at least was found, in what was an old, derelict mine. Possibly an asteroid or dead planetoid of some kind. The mineral content was consistent with a number of planetary bodies and asteroid fields. Our analyst suggests that someone had taken it apart to use components of it for reasons unknown. He suggested that the missing components could have been used to repair another communicator or to construct another device."
