Captain's Log - 86317.9

The Tethys and James Cook have returned to Earth under order of Starfleet Command. The crew of the Tethys will be put on extended shore leave while the Tethys herself has a warp core overhaul. I was instructed by Lieutenant Commander L'Ran of a possible defect in our warp core and would need to return to space dock for a complete overhaul. Initial estimates put the overhaul at one month. I'm hoping that it takes much less, being away from the wide open spaces of space will be far too long...

This opportunity has Captain Amosia of the James Cook happy, the extended time at Earth will allow some necessary upgrades to the James Cook to help it during it's tour with us in deep space. Captain Amosia has mentioned the scheduled upgrades will include a new impulse system and a streamlined set of nacelles that should allow the James Cook to obtain a higher warp factor for a longer period of time, a problem we have noticed during our extended tours. Captain Amosia is acting like a child waiting for her presents on her birthday, the excitement hard to contain.

This will be my last official log entry for one month while I go on personal leave with the rest of the crew. Jayce out.
