Roughly Animated Star Chart of Warp Generator Trajectory

Mirasta displays this digital star chart on the wall monitor in Chancellor Durken's office. The rough animation traces the warp field generator prototype's path to the Garth system, showing it reaches the target within minutes of launch. She gestures at the screen to highlight the tight activation timeline. Durken studies it intently while Krola frowns, and two cabinet members observe silently as the visuals bolster Mirasta's push for acceleration.

Durken Balances Progress and Public Fear

The star chart with its rough animation serves as Mirasta’s primary persuasive tool, visually reinforcing the feasibility and urgency of the warp program. Projected on the wall monitor, it traces the prototype’s trajectory to the Garth system, demonstrating that activation is imminent and the technology is ready. The animation’s dynamic nature—showing the craft leaving the star system in minutes—underscores the program’s revolutionary potential, making it a tangible argument for Mirasta’s case. Krola’s skepticism is indirectly challenged by the chart’s undeniable evidence, though he counters with concerns about public reaction rather than technical feasibility.

Before: Stored in Mirasta’s files or prepared for presentation, likely accessed just before the meeting to emphasize the warp program’s readiness.

After: Displayed on the wall monitor during the debate, then likely saved or archived as part of the official records for the warp program’s approval.
