Captain’s Log – Stardate 7681.42
 U.S.S. Nikola – NCC-4242
 Mission Report: “From Oil to Oilithium: Because Real Science Is Too Boring”

This week’s mission took an unexpected turn.

While en route to conduct a routine survey of speculative energy phenomena in Sector 9, the crew of the Nikola encountered an anomalous signal—one not logged in any official Starfleet database, but immediately recognizable to those fluent in the dialect of cultural detour and technological nonsense. What began as a lighthearted systems diagnostic rapidly devolved into a full-scale investigation of energy sources that defy logic, break every known law of thermodynamics, and occasionally glow for no discernible reason.

From classified engineering logs to restricted media transmissions from pre-Federation civilizations, this episode dives headfirst into a galaxy of power sources too wild, too shiny, and too suspiciously convenient to be real… and yet somehow, still worth exploring.

Captain Kaden leads the analysis—with wit, curiosity, and just the right amount of disregard for scientific plausibility—as we confront the question no academy professor dares ask:
 What if energy did work that way?

If you’re looking for rigorous science and peer-reviewed models… please report to Astrophysics Deck 3.
 If you’re ready for a warp-speed dive into the absurd, the speculative, and the spectacularly implausible—
 then grab your tricorder, tune your deflector dish, and listen in.

End Log.
