"It looks like some kind of vessel", observed captain Maguire watching on the giant computer monitor, as the object came fully into view.

"Captain, apart from the abnormally high energy readings, the ship's instruments aren't able to pick it up. It is as though it is not there, yet it is there".

"As though it is made up entirely of energy, would you say?", suggested captain Lucinda occupying a seat beside captain Maguire.

"Yes, that's exactly what it looks like", agreed lieutenant Tanaka.

"In that case, that rules out attempting to fight it. Maybe we can run out, pilot?"

"Captain if we accelerate any further we risk creating adverse internal pressure within the ship above the one atmosphere our bodies are used to experiencing on earth. We don't know how it will affect our bodies".

"But if we maintain current velocity, the object will ram into us within the next few seconds", exclaimed captain Lucinda".
