“We might be able to track our flight path back to our point of entry.” Mark looked to the helm. “Ensign. Do you have a trajectory and travel record?”-Lt(j.g.) Mark Pierce, CE
The officer at the helm turned their head and nodded. “Yes, Sir, we do. Might take a bit of navigating time to work around the changing conditions, but it’s possible.”
~Mischief Maker
“Captain, that might be our best bet. With the modifications we’ve made downstairs, we should be able to get out through the hole we made getting in.”
-Lt(j.g.) Mark Pierce, CE
Willow nodded. “Do it.” She said as she crossed to her chair and sat. “Get me an ETA.”

COThe bridge then received information form down in the Science Labs. “Captain, Science has found our confirmed our original entry point as our current destination and shows that it is… thinner, for lack of a better word, than the surrounding area. ETA is ten minutes. “
~Mischief Maker
With a slightly grim expression Willow nodded. “Good. Punch it.” She told the officer at the helm.
Willow Taylor
COOOC: Hope no one mind my interjecting myself into the thread here. :)
Achilleas walked onto the bridge in a fluster with PaDD in hand and walked towards the Captain.
“Captain, I was running some numbers down in the science lab to refine our point of exit and hopefully gain a little more time on the aperture staying open. This way there should be less damage during our traversal.” He offered the PaDD that noted a specific point and deflector dish calibration settings.
CSO Petrakos
Willow turned to the voice and took the PaDD, she skimmed it and nodded. “If you think this will reduce damage,” she glanced at Mark. “Chief…thoughts?” She said,
Willow Taylor
CO“Certainly can’t hurt our chances. I don’t think it’s possible to get out of here unscathed, but this’ll do some good.” Mark looked at Petrakos. “Come on. We have more work than time.”
-Lt(j.g.) Mark Pierce, CE
Achilleas took the PaDD back from the CO and headed over to the CE. He transferred the data over and went over some of the calibration settings.
“So my calculations show that a polaron shift of 14 degrees at these specific coordinates with the deflector dish should give us the best conditions for traversal.”
CSO Petrakos
OOC: It all works for me. Once you all have made your modifications, we’ll hit the big red button and see what becomes of you all. Grins Evil-y
IC:
They had another six minutes till they reached the entry point to the bubble.~Mischief Maker
Achilleas assisted in double checking that the corresponding settings were input correctly. He knew the clock was ticking but didn’t want to rush the CE.
CSO Petrakos
“Ok… looks good to me. Ready to switch it on when you are.”
-Lt(j.g.) Mark Pierce, CE
Achilleas nodded in response, “The numbers all match up.”
Reaching forward he pressed the requisite button which initiated the program.”
CSO Petrakos
OOC: Borrowing Willow as encouraged by Cale.
IC:
The changes to the deflector took effect as the ship approached their original entry point. The ship came to a stop, awaiting the captain’s order.Taylor eyed the viewscreen and took a deep breath before opening a channel to the entire ship. =/\=Attention all crew, this is the captain speaking. We’re about to traverse the subspace barrier in hopes of exiting back into normal space. Brace yourselves for likely impact and damage.=/\=
She gave everyone thirty seconds to do what they needed, knowing full well that it wasn’t going to matter. So long as people were holding on to something, that was about as good as it was going to get.
“Helm, take us in, full impulse,” Willow said, doing her best to conceal her own nerves.
The ship maneuvered to the opening and picked up slight speed from one-quarter to full impulse. “Time till entry?” Willow called out.
Science would be able to quickly calculate that it would take another 45 seconds.
~Mischief Maker
Achilleas responded to the inquiry, “Exactly 45 seconds… now. “
CSO Petrakos
“Grab hold off something folks…” she muttered and waited.
