Noticing that they were actively scanned from the planet surface, Talion waited a moment before returning the favor and conducting an active scan. It wasn't a provatactive act if the planet scanned them first. The passive sensors were picking up an incredible amount of stray energy from the planet. It was rare that so much EM spanned such a wide band of frequencies. The active sensors did pick up what appeared to be a human life sign in the Saule district. From the sound of things, they were not going to be allowed to send their people to that location right away.
Talion tagged the sensor contact and tried to get a lock on it to determine if it was, in fact, the Ambassador or not. What they had on file should still match the DNA signature, even with his implants. In his experience with diplomatic situations, things were never as straight forward as you might think. Why was the Ambassador in the other district? It made sense that the most developed district was doing the talking, but obviously things were less than friendly down there.
He glanced at the device on his left forearm and saw the small green indicator. Cindy was in place, should he need her assistance. Alex really hoped that he would not need to use ay extreme measures in this mission. The more he could keep things in the hands of the organic crew, the safer he felt. On the other hand, he was a strong believer in having contingency plans. He had to silently wonder though, as much as the CO and FO were interested in Cindy, he had not heard a single word about the EXEO for the ship. Alex had no personal interest in the EXEO, but found it an interesting point to ponder.
Not wanting General Alukh to hear, Alex would wait until the comm channel was closed before revealing that he had detected a human on the surface. Hopefully he would have more detailed results by then.
Without saying anything to Lt Khasim, he gestured to her and pointed at the results, indicating for her to try and focus on getting detailed results with a narrow beam scan. They had no intention of beaming them up without orders, but he needed to know if they could confirm the identity and if a sensor lock was possible at this point. These were things he knew the Captain would want to know.

== GM Input: Can the identity of the human be confirmed? Is a sensor lock even possible at this time? Obviously they can communicate with the ship, but what is the level of sophistication of their subspace communications? ==
