Starboard Nacelle Exterior (Two Kilometers Off)
Detailed Involvements
Events with rich location context
The starboard nacelle exterior (two kilometers off) is the remote, sterile point where Transporter Room deposits the explosive device; it acts as a sacrificial, empty space that absorbs the blast without risking crew or systems.
Sterile, cold void—silent and distant with faint thruster plumes and no lifeforms present.
Safe dumping ground for hazardous material to allow controlled detonation off-ship.
A place of containment and exile—danger expelled into empty space rather than tolerated aboard the crew's home.
Not accessible to crew except via transporter coordinates; effectively unreachable physically during the event.
The starboard nacelle exterior — two kilometers off — is the sterile remote point selected as the detonation site where Transporter Room ejects the satchel charge; its emptiness ensures a harmless explosion and preserves the ship and crew.
Cold, empty, silent vacuum; sterile and distant compared to the ship's chaotic interior.
Remote dumping ground for hazardous material and safe detonation site.
A practical manifestation of containment: isolation used as a remedy for internal threat.
Not a boarded location; effectively unreachable physically by crew during the event.
