"That Ferengi vessel may not be in phase for long and it is drifting into the planet." Jane responded. "We don't have time to prepare a team and don't know if the problem is even fixable. Far too risky to send someone over unless we're sure it is stable for at least a small window..."
Ra'an nodded. "I understand the risks, Captain. I've been specializing temporal mechanics since my second year at the Academy, which is why if anyone goes, I think it should be me, and should go before it phases again to give me the most time to examine the problem. We don't know what the device might be powerful enough to take with it if it is destroyed while it's in temporal flux with the explosive power of a starship behind it. I'm willing to take that risk to try to mitigate the damage and potentially bring the inert device back for study. At the very least, I could try to detonate the device behind a forcefield on board before impact." Amila responded to the Captain's concerns with a steady voice, her posture almost at full attention her eyes focused on the Captain.
Amila glanced over at Sothrick, "I wouldn't need a full away team. The only thing they could protect me from would be the Nausicaans should they try to join me. The fewer people the better."
==GM Are the probes giving us any more information about the device on the Ferengi vessel - such as an idea of what deck(s) it might be located on, or it's relative size? ==
