Scanning over the wavelength readings from their initial scans, Julian notices a familiar pattern. According to the printouts, there was a predictable but foreign phase in the wavelength, as if the emissions were distorted deliberately. Julian rubbed his tired eyes, staring at the wave for a moment as Felger's anecdote about Asgard rituals faded into the background of his mind.. He'd seen this pattern before.OOC: Julian takes 10 on his Electronics check to determine the pattern, giving him an effective +21."I'll be right back, Doc."Julian jogs into the hallway, excitedly bowling into the men's room. He was going to make an impression on his first day. From the logs, Felger had been working on this device for 2 weeks. Grabbing a bucket from the janitor's closet, he hastily fills it with water from the sink and returns to the lab."Doc, I got it... Your notes were right.. the wave -is- deliberately distorted. And here's why."Snatching up the alien object, he turns on the monitor. Immediately, the distorted wave begins scrambling across the oscilliscope. Praying he's right, Julian dumps the device into the bucket of water. Immediately, the signal on the oscilliscope rights itself into perfect phase. "I knew it. It's designed to work underwater, so it's compensating for the distortion of the wave through liquid." Beaming, Julian sits on a stool next to the workstation, watching the oscilliscope hum along.</blockquote>
