Ok, so finally, not a big fight!
Ok, so Torian has impressed the crew, which will boost morale by 1 on the ship.
So, after loading the load, there are a few decisions to be made:
1-Where to go next? As such, the other systems in the clusters seemed unnapealing, and the target is relatively close-by (<15 ly), with only one more system (AE-09178) between you and your target system (AE-11119)
2-What to do with the station? You could bring it to your current location, though its clear there is less archeotech here than in the space field
3-What to do with the creature? You could leave it there, render it down for chemicals, stuff it, your choice!
Well that was fitting haha. My partner and I tried but could not get into this show. Maybe at some point we'll have to give it another go.
As for how to best utilize this planet and our space station, I need to see the cost/benefit analysis of leaving it in the starfield or bringing it to dock here. I can't remember what the numbers were. But in reality, I completely defer to the Magos' wisdom in matters such as these. He does tend to know best.

Well, the archeotech is likely more lucrative, especially in the short-term. To make this planet profitable requires long-term work setting up plantations & such since its production is biological (and the local archeotech is harder to access, bering under a ton of plants and broken parts.)

is there any chance at all for getting the space elevator working again?

Yes, though it would likely take years. The parts are there, but it would take ages to get thing back into shape, get replacements for whats broken. It would be substantial work.

Psyniscience roll to detect source of Thought Sending = 49 vs 75 = 3 DoS
Just a heads up, we'd typically read this as 4 DoS, with the 49 being 1 and counting an additional DoS for every first-10 digits beyond that. In other words, it doesn't need to be 10 exactly: 49 (1 DoS) --> 59 (2 DoS) --> 69 (3 DoS) --> 75 (4 DoS for being within 10 of the next DoS). Same goes for DOF.
Bigger scores, bigger failures.
Also, I am fully prepared for Pyrite to be rolling his eyes and sighing whenever he reads this lolol
Secondly, official welcome to the team, Thirsty. And I legit want to get the Apex Dinosaur cleaned and mounted for Torian as a trophy.

1. I vaguely remember the plan being to hit the system in between on our way to the target? Please forgive my ignorance because it has been forever, but what is waiting for us in the target system? This would also be a good time to fill in Thirsty on the overall mission here.
2. Again, I vaguely remember that we decided to leave it in the debris/space field. I am good with that, but will defer to Pyrite/Ignatio on this one.
3. My vote was/is to make some kills of the big herbivores on our way home for a crew feast/morale boost. As for the Apex Predator, at the very least, some part of it needs to be stuffed and immortalized to remember Torian's Baller-Ass Kill. The rest can be rendered down for chemicals. Sure.
