Greetings, and welcome to the Council of Leaders.
Situation Report
Quick facts on the issue
Title: What Lies Inside the Infinite?
-Details-
Description: Strange signals emitted from location near SLUan moon base.
Currently: Information being withheld from public in interest of security.
Why: Source Unknown
First Conference Briefing
Detailed Facts on the Issue
It has been sixteen years now since the founding of the SLU’s third Lunar colony, Ainland’s Prosperity, in the year 2143. In these sixteen years, Ainland’s Prosperity has gained a healthy population of 500 and growing, and has served as a great contributor to the increased understanding of space-bound life, and the nature of the moon.
Eight days ago, a weak radio signal was discovered emanating from a small crater roughly 30 kilometers due northeast of the colony. The radio signal was far too organized to be naturally occurring, and yet it did not match any sort of signal that has been known to be used by an SLUan nation, or any other known nation in the world.
In the interest of the public’s psychological well-being, and in the interest of regional security, the colony of Ainland’s Prosperity has been cut off from communications with the outside world, and unauthorized travel. The official cover story is that a highly virulent pathogen has originated inside the colony which if spread, could cause severe damage to public health and safety. This is done so that in the event of an enemy nation or region being the cause of this signal, the exact time that the public is made aware of the truth can be chosen after the threat has been dealt with, in order to prevent widespread panic.
The source of the signal has yet to be investigated.
LEADERS, what do you suggest we do?
Post your response to this issue to affect the outcome of the next update!
The situation will be updated sometime soon. Do not delay your move!
(The technology used may range in advancement from modern, to something you would expect from the stage in which planetary exploration has only extended as far out as Mars. It must also be realistic, within reason. ie. no Star Wars or Star Trek like tech.)
