I have to make this quick, I think I’m being observed. The document from Friday, in plaintext:
RE: PROJECT NAACZAAL
STATUS BRIEFING OCTOBER TEN
SMALL SCALE PROTOTYPING AND COMPLETE TESTING OF PROPULSION SYSTEM HAVE BEEN PERFORMED AND ARE A COMPLETE SUCCESS.
ORIGINAL DESIGNS HAVE OVERPERFORMED PREDICTIONS SIGNIFICANTLY, AND AS A RESULT THE FULL SCALE BUILD BLUEPRINTS WILL BE ADJUSTED TO OCCUPY A SMALLER FOOTPRINT IN THE CRAFT.
AS CARGO SPACE IS BOTH LIMITED AND HIGHLY VALUABLE, WE HAVE USED THIS OPPORTUNITY TO EXPAND THE CARGO BAYS.
REDESIGNED SCHEMATICS SHOULD BE AVAILABLE IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS.
MORE COMPLETE PROVISIONING AND INCREASED SUSTAINABLE DURATION FOR THE LIFE SUPPORT SYSTEMS ARE ANICIPATED AS A RESULT.
FUNDING LEVELS ARE SIGNIFICANTLY BEHIND TARGET LEVELS. THE SCOPE AND COMPLETION OF THE PROJECT ARE IN JEOPARDY IF THIS CONTINUES.
MANAGEMENT IS ASSESSING METHODS TO ENSURE CONSTRUCTION CONTINUES UNINTERRUPTED.
ALL STAFF PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS OVERVIEW IS EYES ONLY AND SHOULD BE DELETED AFTER READING.
Then on Monday, these were intercepted. I assume this change in encryption method is a part of the Level 3 security sweep that is also making my life more interesting. I just wish the big picture would snap into focus and make sense of it all.
