Operational Guide

Description: The ship is to reach Callisto's orbit, and get the body into sensor range long enough to get significant information from our installations there.

Conversely, our Callisto sensor facilities will undergo training exercises at the same time, to try and detect unflagged vessels, such as the Shrike, but will not be told there's an actual ship nearby.

Objective: To ascertain the readiness of the ship's crew and technology, for undercover recon operations, and the level of competency of Callisto's crew at keeping the necessary vigilance to stop hostile powers from gaining detailed sensor intel.

Prof. Snark added that the Shrike should follow a freighter after the initial exercise in order to practice stealthful tracking[3].
