Coronado was in the process of a speed run from the Wormwood system to Starbase 81, in the Omega Penora system. Once we arrive, we are to resupply and rearm following our mission in and around the Wormwood and Pandemonium systems. Torpedo banks are depleted, save for 6 quantum torpedoes for self-defense. Phasers are 40% recharged. [18:22] While en route and after rendezvousing with a number of courier ships bringing in new crew, supplies, or other materials, we encountered a "duplicate" of Starbase 81 in the Delta Penora system. Delta Penora is part of the same stellar group as Omega Penora, but the two systems are on opposite sides of the group... approximately 50 light-years apart. [18:22] It is unknown why the duplicate was created; only that it appeared in the Delta Penora system approximately five minutes before we arrived. Other than the station duplicate, the system contains one red giant star and one blue-black gas giant. An Away team boarded the duplicate station, and found it was inhabited... by what appear to be ghosts!
