Social Experiment
Console: event anomaly.310
Description
A small aerostat colony was found floating just above the atmosphere of …. It appears to have been self-sufficient, and remains from several different species were found on board.
As best as we can tell, the colony was some kind of social experiment conducted centuries ago that ultimately ended with the colonists massacring each other. We have downloaded all of the data found in the colony's limited databanks.

Aerostat Colonies
Console: event anomaly.315
Description
A ruined network of aerostat colonies dating back at least three millennia can be found in low orbit of this gas giant. Their original function appears to have been gas mining, but they have since been abandoned and reoccupied by many different races and pirate groups.
The colonies have been thoroughly stripped of anything even remotely valuable, but the mere fact that they are still aloft after all this time makes them an interesting subject of engineering research.
