We are established on a return course. While we wait, we analyse some of the data gathered so far: the explosive charge was something fairly expensive, without military taggants – perhaps synthesised off the books?
I note some similarity of high technical skill and low tradecraft with the LPS hack.
Checking Dirac’s computers suggests that the pod was probably not the source of their computer intrusion, as induction link bandwidth would be insufficient for the level of complexity – though it might have triggered something planted earlier.
