In '''Researcher Rescue''', the player is sent to the [[Kassae System]] to attempt to regain contact with the [[Federation]] science station there.

__TOC__

==Summary==
A Federation archaeology team has uncovered something that will put your crew in grave danger.

== Mission Text ==
{{missiontext|
[[Starfleet]] has lost contact with the [[Federation]] science station in the [[Kassae System]] in the [[Kassae Sector]] of the [[Regulus Sector Block]].

Because all communications from [[Kassae II]] must be boosted by a satellite that compensates for metreon isotopes prevalent in the system, it may be that the communications array is in need of repair.

Please make the necessary repairs to the communications array and re-establish contact with the science station.

== Notes ==
* The mission has been significantly reworked as part of the ''[[Season 8.5]]'' update patch tied to the [[4 Year Anniversary Event]] on January 30, 2014.
* This mission was reworked again for [[Season 15]]. Notably, Dr. Shian accompanies the player after meeting them, as opposed to beaming up to the ship. She gives a cultural background of the Gorn and their ancestral claims as the mission progresses.
