The massive moon that was Home, its main bay open, the glowing maw was busy with the activity of smaller ships, hovering about the empty system was the home fleet, two massive construction vessels, and a few dozen almost as large. then a portal appeared, and a slew of heavy tugs, pulling the first of a small purchase. The tugs taking their cargo into the maw one or two at a time. other smaller ships moving in on the lot. The tug's "cargo" which looked to be submarine shaped vessels, smooth hulls with metal bulb shaped at the bow and stern making it difficult to tell which was which. They were divided into two apparent classes, one was just under a click long, the other a little over 4 clicks. The ships had been secured and searched before arriving in the system. They brought a few online, up its systems and running through its operation. All the while smaller ships followed it around as the 998 meter vessel scooted around the system, its gravity signature suggested it was possibly using a type of singularity core. They tested its weapons, which looked to be a type of graser, which it had a decent number of, but not much else.

The few that had been taken into the moon were being stripped down and taken apart. where things were was catalogued and saved. science teams poured over the inner workings as well as data coming from the test going on outside.
