Geordi La Forge's Shuttle Wreckage Sensor Report PADD

Geordi La Forge carries this handheld PADD into Shuttlebay Two, its screen displaying sensor data on the shuttlecraft's break-up. He hands it to Miles O'Brien for review while they probe the wreckage. Amid N.D. Engineers, Geordi crushes a tritanium hull fragment that dusts away, the PADD anchoring their analysis of the molecular anomaly behind the crew's childlike regression.

Geordi discovers molecular anomaly in shuttle wreckage

Geordi La Forge's PADD containing the sensor report on the shuttle break-up serves as the initial catalyst for the investigation. He hands it to O'Brien, who reviews the data while Geordi examines the debris. The PADD's sensor report confirms the break-up began near the starboard bulkhead, directing their attention to the critical fragments. While the PADD itself is not the focus of the discovery, it provides the foundational data that frames the anomaly as deliberate sabotage rather than an accident.

Before: Carried by Geordi into Shuttlebay Two; active and displaying sensor data.

After: Handed to O'Brien for review; remains in the bay but is no longer the central object of focus.
