The device is dirty and most of the data seems to be corrupt. There are however still a few readable entries:
ERROR 28! CORRUPTED DATA WARNING #557: UNREADABLE INFORMATION HAS BEEN REMOVED! |

I managed to speak to him today.. Catherine tried to talk me out of it, but I just had to. Just for a few minutes while he was at least reasonably calm. I could see he was in incredible pain, but at least he was quiet. I asked him questions and he looked at me, or perhaps through me, and whispered. He whispered to me in a voice that didn't sound the least bit familiar. He said he wanted to go home, home to the sea, to drink from the dark sea.
We have to send him back; there is nothing we can do for him here. Reilly has told me he can evacuate him back to Minopolis in a few days. I wish it could be sooner. I wonder what I will tell his father?

Our sensors tell us it has grown. I have no idea how, and neither do the computers. Instead they have told us what I have suspected for several days now. The orb somehow affects the area around it so strongly, that it affects the thin layer of space time. I have never seen anything like it. It speeds up in time around itself, sending out pulses that ripple across the very fabric of subspace.
I'm beginning to think that this is an artefact. It is beginning to scare me.

I have managed to retrieve more scrambled information from Jensen's reports, From the short pieces of data it seems apparent that he came to the same conclusions that we did... initially. The surface is made from an unknown alloy but beneath it, the interior solid mass is rushing around at an immense speed. On the outside it is calmness itself, but inside it there is a constant raging storm. The friction alone should make the orb hot as the sun, but of course it is freezing cold on the surface.
Damn it! I know there is something more to this. There must be some way to tackle this in a scientific way! But the orb just hovers there like a taunting riddle from the other side of the universe. I don't know why but since I've gotten here I never leave my tent without the crucifix I wear around my neck.
