INN: Phyrrian war allies keep watch

The following press release was provided to INN by Dr. Nevirrea Giraliez of the ECWI Public Relations office. A Royal Naval Service spokesperson confirmed the announcement but declined further comment.

An uneasy peace has persisted since the new Phyrrian Overmind announced its intent to end hostilities and warned of three rogue warships at large under the command of the previous, damaged Overmind. While the Phyrrians have not yet responded to calls for peace talks, the allies of the Phyrrian War have today chosen to release one piece of good news.

Since late January of this year, we have been served by the watchful eyes of a new scientific project, the Long Baseline Tachyon Telescope (LBTT). This sensor array aims to make the galaxy safer for all by watching the Orion Arm for military and natural threats while still maintaining respect for the sovereignty of all nations.

This project has been made possible by a collaboration between Antimone's famous Echo Cluster Weather Institute and the Centauran Research Institute. The work together has been a long time in the making. In the words of CRI liason Ketnesqinzatbay, "The astronomers of the CRI and ECWI have long admired each other's respective accomplishments in science, but exchange of data and other cooperative efforts had in the past been somewhat limited by cultural and procedural differences." The ECWI is pleased to announce to the public that we overcame differences to protect our galaxy.
