BAJOR – The long-awaited return of the ancient sculpture “Ohalu’s Light” to Bajor has been met with distrust and protests after it was revealed to be a forgery.

The Summerside Report: Ninth House, Second Chance Stardate 240001.23
When someone killed her family, Vaxa Ral was in exile. The legal heir to the Ninth House of Betazed – stripped of her home by her vindictive and manipulative parents and removed of her rights by the combined might of six other Houses – could do nothing but watch from afar as Dominion-led attacks destroyed her family home, along with all who dwelled there.

Andorians continue walking on thin ice as geothermal energy restrictions beginStardate 240001.25
ANDOR — A new report warns that the Andorian homeworld has continued to increase in temperature despite new government efforts to reverse the trend. Chief ecologist of the Andorian Science Institute, Shyvin Ch’Vokyris recently published a devastating report revealing the unsuccess of the Andorian government’s attempts at controlling Andor’s climate during what is now an 18-month-long heatwave. Attempts to shield the moon from further warming included significant shielding of the surface from solar rays, and researchers are falling back on more intrusive methods.
