EARL SERRANO SOME OF THE ARTIFACTS WE BROUGHT UP FOR EXAMINATION WERE COVERED IN WHAT I CAN ONLY DESCRIBE AS FOSSILIZED CARBUNCLES. WE THOUGHT THEY WERE INERT, HAVING BEEN DEAD FOR POTENTIALLY MILLIONS OF YEARS. BUT WHILE THEY WERE IN ANTI-GRAV TRANSIT, SOME OF THE GROWTHS BROKE OFF. WHEN CREWS WENT BACK TO RETRIVE THEM, THEY DISCOVERED SEVERAL LARGE PODS AFFIXED TO THE WALLS, PRESUMABLY INCUBATING SOMETHING WITHIN. WHEN APPROCHED, THEY CRACKED OPEN AND WHAT SPILLED OUT WAS - HORRIFYING. WE LOST SEVERAL OF OUR CREW THAT DAY. THE CREATURES HAVE SINCE BEEN SHUT UP IN THE TRANSIT SHAFT UNTIL WE CAN EXAMINE THEM. THE OTHER SHAFT HAS BEEN FITTED WITH TRIPWIRE DEVICES TO DETER ANY OTHERS THAT MAY HAVE ESCAPED OUR NOTICE.
