"This is the Infinity, do you copy?"

It seems to be a one way channel. The translator barely works, not recognizing the language and translating basic words with roots in Afrikaans. It seems to be two people talking to each other, and nothing else.

[b][i]He tries to pull as much from he conversation as he can, running it through multiple translators to figure out words.[/i][/b]

Each translator pulls out the same thing: An unknown language mostly derived from Afrikaans, with a completely different phonetic structure. You can't seem to pull anything else, but the words you CAN translate seem to point to a normal conversation being broadcasted— Until you hear something completely mind boggling. "You're listening — Radio. Tune — Is —" It seems to be a radio show. What the hell would something like that be doing out here?

Signs point more or less to the radio theory. The signal is barely encrypted, and is quite easy to pinpoint as barely half a lightyear away— [i]Holy shit.[/i] The ping returns a MASSIVE number of ship readings, numbering six digits teetering on seven, containing the mass of several planets. It must be some sort of interfleet radio show. What they're doing out here, though, remains a mystery.
