"Ore samples?" the ambassador chuckled faintly and nodded, "but of course. Shouldn't be a problem... ah, scientists."
There were quite a few understanding smiles or chuckles around the passenger lounge, and Cliffjumper grinned reluctantly at well, since he could also easily think of who would love ore samples to go through.
As they started to descend, Cliffjumper squinted at some devices orbiting Paradron that didn't quite look like satellites, glanced to Mirage and then turned around, pointing to the closest one he could see.
"What're those?"
The ambassador's optics flickered and then she sighed.
"Atmosphere controls. Paradron didn't have an atmosphere before it was settled, and it can't keep onto one without assistance. Not that we necessarily need one, but it makes things easier, yes?"
Cliffjumper nodded, thinking about what a pain it must be to keep seeding atmospheric gasses if they kept being stripped away.
