explosion and
anything deadly given off.
    From the
scientists working on the project he soon gathered that they were
the most powerful weapons they could build there!
    They had
an incredible magnitude, and their destructive power
was immense, and beyond the imaginable, and if they never contained
them the spacecraft would probably be completely disintegrated,
into nothing, and they would all die there, out in the void,
without people back home ever realizing the truth.
    If they sent out a miniature pod back to the
Earth they would not hear what had happened for centuries, because
of the slowness of normal space vehicles.
    He helped the other scientists and military
choose the region that it was to be used in, which would do the
least amount of damage to the ship, and where they could close off
from the rest of the ship, and after the explosions had been
detonated.
     

Chapter 25
     
    The New Detection
System
     
    There was
something strange about the alien and the way the two paranormal
scientists insisted something of a paranormal nature existed,
especially after considering that he had not actually heard them
come out with anything that existed there, and their work showed
how accurate they were and always insisted in keeping to the facts
and only showing what truly was there.
    He did have a
great passion for the new and fantastic, and the investigation of
paranormal activity was really interesting, when done correctly,
and there at least looked as though there could be something truly
there, and not the stuff that appeared on the media, which was just
a joke.
    He believed
there were strange phenomena that had not be fully explained, and
he had come across small occurrences himself, but not hauntings and
such like.
    Though he had
never properly proven the existence of anything of a supernatural
nature he had still investigated everything of that nature that he
had come across in the media. Could this thing that they consider
is an alien be from beyond this realm of the universe, and be some
form supernatural being?
    It was
incredible that nobody really investigated anything of that nature,
and that all the scientists aboard avoided it and only considered
it when it was brought up. Yet he did see their point of view, and
that there was barely any real evidence of anything. Take the two
paranormal scientists! They could barely even establish anything,
and jumped at the chance of finding something that actually was
there.
    They were
there to investigate anything in that region that could be missed,
and might be missed out by other scientists who avoided checking or
wasting their funds on.
    The two
scientists were accurate in their investigations, and checked
everything, and had built up the most advanced research paranormal
establishment that there was, containing the most highly advanced
equipment that there was available, which they had aboard.
    On arriving at
their laboratory, after they had left a message asking him to come
over, as they had something, he saw that they had put together
something.
    A vast
assembly of equipment was all fitted together on a table, and the
surrounding room was in a mess, with equipment and tools left
everywhere, and it was clear that they had been at work building it
for a great deal of time.
    All their
assistants were still running about altering and adjusting things,
and reading information on various things.
    The thing was
beyond him! He could barely guess what parts of it were for! Yet it
interested him greatly, especially with their interest in it, and
their reactions to it, and as though they had been waiting all
their lives to create it, and had not because of some unknown
reason, and the fact that they never had all their technology
available to use. And it clearly could damage the equipment that
they were using with it, as well as part of it, and the fact that
it was expensive stuff, and perhaps the only stuff available on the
ship.
    They were
there to investigate what other
