Thargoid Crashed Ship

Commanders log 11/01/3304Sensors picked up a crash site on a near by moon circling a planet while traveling through the sector. I decided to take a closer look in case of survivors that might need my help. After entering orbit it appears to be Thargoid in origin so I decided to take the ship down and land on the Moons surface and undock the SRV to get a better look/analyse what has happened.
After closer examination it appears this ship is a relic and carbon dating puts it to around the year 3250 which puts it back to the original Thargoid invasion of our systems. after taking some more in depth scans of the vessel It would appear this is a scout ship of some kind not much different in size to my Eagle I have back at Tranquillity.
The scans showed something odd the vessel has residual traces of what seems to be Mycoid Particles, after looking through the database I have discovered this is a Bioweapon that was used by Inra during the first war, which would confirm this is a ship from an older time.
I tried to get the ships computer back on line so I could analyse its database and see if it could shed some light of what it was doing and what it was looking for, I feel it might have been spying on the near by Artimas Lodge that would have been under construction at the time to take advantage of the systems near by mining potential. but that is only speculation. unfortunately the main computer core seems to of been destroyed in the crash along with any defensive and offensive capabilities so analysing weaponry and shielding is out of the question. this could of been the find of the century and finally give us more info on these Thargoids, something we need now more than ever with the fact the have returned and the growing threat they are presenting. their new ships are like nothing I have ever seen and the power! hopefully the new weapons that have been developed will help to neutralise their superiority. the information that this ship could of been really useful even though it was out dated.
There was loads of canisters scattered all over the ground around the ship, they must of got thrown from the ship in the crash, scans show it to be a combination of resin, Bio Matter and Tech Supplies, I collected up as much of the canisters as I could but they are very corrosive, it seems they are either unstable or the matter is something normal containment can't handle so I could only carry a small amount as to not compromise my ship and its hull. I will take it to Palin to analyse I am sure he will be interested and want to examine it, I heard he had been after any Thargoid materials.
I am heading to Obsidian Orbital which is where he is based to see if this is of interest to him.
Recently Artimas came under attack by the Interceptors aka the Flowers 'that's what we call them due to the appearance' the station is a mess and currently going through mass evacuation and then they will asses the damage and see if it can be repaired and what will be required. I hope they managed to get most of the people out, it looked really battered and messed up. I tried to help and find as many escape pods as I could but my Python was just not set up for an operation of that magnitude. It was a real struggle to keep thermals down and stop my systems from over heating and shutting down.
I will be staying in this sector for a few more days before heading back home to Tranquillity, It will be nice to get back in the Anna Conda lounge and have some spice, I wish I brought more with me. It will be nice to get back home.
