Well, just found an alien empire near where I said earlier in the system of Olwa. However, things are not adding up. This cannot be the empire that is responsible for the wrecks. Their population, by a ship that contains both thermal and EM sensors directly overhead, is being read as a signature of 5 thermal and 5 EM. There are no orbitals over the planet, or any other signatures in the system. This is either a conventional empire, or is merely a small colony. I do not have any military ships yet as my jump drives are still being researched (started when I made the wreck connection theory)(All ships Frigate+ will be self jump capable) but the shipyards are preparing to receive the blueprints for production. I shall pull the ship from the system and reroute any ships passing through that area, I will assemble a diplomatic team, and then initiate contact. However, the discovered aliens seem to be a warlike race, such as we are. If negotiations turn, there is no question within the council to protect human interests by using world burners and troops.
