Lt. Cmdr. Data: Based on its present trajectory, the comet appears to have originated in the D'Arsay system.Commander William T. Riker: That's over 2 sectors away.Lt. Cmdr. Data: That is correct, Sir. [camera pans to Data and to his side] This object has been en route for 87 million years.Commander William T. Riker: [looks to Picard] That's a long time alone in the dark.Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Hmm. [hesitates] Begin a full sensor analysis, Mr. Data, and log the findings with the Federation Astrophysical Survey.Lt. Cmdr. Data: Aye, Sir. [short pause] The comet's outer shell is composed primarily of gaseous hydrogen and helium surrounding an icy mantle. The inner core consists of heavier elements. [a bright light illuminates them and the bridge for a few seconds and vanishes]Captain Jean-Luc Picard: What was that?Lt. Cmdr. Data: There is a distortion within the comet's inner core. I believe we experienced an intense sensor echo.Commander William T. Riker: Can you correct for it?Lt. Cmdr. Data: I'm attempting to do so now, Sir. I have compensated for the effect. Sensors are reconfigured for a low-intensity sweep. We are still picking up some interference, but the distortion is manageable. At these settings, the scan will be complete in 39 hours.
