It was deemed a necessary precaution. However it made the removal of these panels to be quite tricky, the release mechanism sometimes catching on a hitch. This was deemed acceptable, especially considering the Ascendant's predominantly automated systems.Lieutenant Winters, never the most physically fit, was an adequate climber and so his grip was always one of the best, and so it was with ease that he removed this particular wall panel. Greeted by a labyrinthine smorgasbord of blinking lights and a convolution of cards and slots and wires and various doo-dads, the mid-thirties man aims his tricorder amongst the masses to the exact location required."Chief Nakamura, I'm detecting an energy variance in the transfer conduit relays of 0.06," he turns from his squat position and looks at the officer. "Adjust the gamma-energy destabilization matrix by a factor of 3 and 7 and let's see if that does the trick."He runs a hand over his forehead, which has seemingly grown slightly larger over the past few years as his darker brown hair has slowly receded along the temples. Excitement coursed through his veins as it had these past few months once the discovery of his appointment came across his desk. It had been a few years since Lieutenant Winters had served on a starship, his first and only posting having been the Excelsior Class Roosevelt. Fortunately for him, he had been reassigned to the Utopia Planitia Staryards a few months prior to the battle of Wolf 359 that had destroyed the ship.Turning back to the panel, Lieutenant Winters continued to gather readings and plan in his head the next step in this long, arduous process to bring the teleporters up to his acceptable level of performance.</blockquote>
