Carapellex Interception

The Carapellex Interception was an operation by the Galactic Senate Special Operations Corps to stop a smuggling ship.

Overview
The interception took place between the Batra and a Carapellex Cruiser three lightyears away from the Meruu system. Comm buoys detected unusual energy readings from the Carapellex Cruiser, suggesting that they were carrying a device that they did not create. A computer analysis from the buoy's systems determined that the device had similar energy signatures used by civilizations that lived at least 100,000 years ago. As the transport of paleotechnology aboard non-science and non-military vessels was considered against Galactic Senate laws, the Galactic Senate Special Operations Corps was sent to intercept the ship.

When the GSSOC boarded the cruiser, they discovered that the energy readings was in fact a data module. By order of the law, the cruiser was impounded, but the data module escaped their grasp via an escape pod. The warp trails indicated that it was headed for Krar to auction it off.

Aftermath
There were no causalities. Some Carapellex were damaged, but not beyond repair.
