*Admiral [[Aden Tanner]] has called for [[Aegis]] to reject the public inquiry's shutdown and take direct action against [[Salvation]]. The Musashi, an Aegis Defense [[megaship]] under his command, has entered the T Tauri system to challenge Taurus Mining Ventures. The corporation has performed activities on Salvation's behalf, including preparation for the anti-xeno weapon used to eliminate all [[Thargoid]]s from the Cornsar system. Admiral Tanner transmitted this message to media outlets: "Salvation's unlicensed weapons technology is deliberately designed to provoke the Thargoids, risking millions of lives. My sources tell me that Hind Mine [[Asteroid Base|asteroid base]] contains evidence of this. I therefore demand that Taurus Mining Ventures allows us access so we can determine the truth." [[Patience Middleton]] of Taurus Mining Ventures responded: "We are a legitimate business under contract to a private citizen, whose activities are protected by confidentiality agreements. These threats have no legal standing and are not welcome." Admiral Tanner is a highly decorated [[Federal Navy]] officer and Aegis's chief military liaison, having coordinated many combat efforts against the Thargoids. The Musashi's relocation has been condemned by Aegis leadership, and Tanner has been ordered to depart the T Tauri system.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/61840798afc9de16453ca51e GalNet: Aegis Leader Opposes Salvation]</ref>

*<nowiki>*</nowiki>Pilots Federation ALERT*<br/> Several inhabited systems in the [[Pleiades Nebula|Pleiades]] and [[Witch Head Nebula]]s have come under attack by large numbers of [[Thargoid]] ships. An emergency has been declared by the authorities in multiple systems including Asterope, [[Shenve]] and Onoros. Thargoid vessels have again targeted [[starport]]s, with casualties estimated in the many thousands. Increased Thargoid activity has also been reported in the [[California Nebula|California]] and [[Coalsack Nebula]]s. Independent pilots and anti-xeno squadrons are moving to defend the invaded systems and evacuate survivors from damaged starports. [[Aegis]] is not currently able to assist, as the operational shutdown enforced by the public inquiry has led to many ships and pilots being withdrawn from service. Admiral [[Aden Tanner]], chief military liaison to Aegis, commented: "Many of us in Aegis are frustrated that the [[Paul Baumann|Baumann Report]] has tied our hands. I am also convinced that these Thargoids are reacting aggressively to the weapon of mass destruction that [[Salvation]] deployed in the Cornsar system. Not only should we be fighting the alien threat, but Salvation must be prevented from escalating the war." The Taurus Mining Ventures [[megaship]] Bright Sentinel has moved to the [[Merope]] system at Salvation's request. Reports indicate that [[Technology Broker|tech brokers]] on board are offering a [[Guardian Plasma Charger|Guardian-hybrid plasma charger]] as well as material cost discounts to support the anti-xeno effort.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/617a92af979938635b475461 GalNet: Thargoid Fleets Invade Nebula Systems]</ref>

*The anonymous [[Salvation]] commands much support in the galactic community, but a resistance movement has emerged to sabotage his efforts. [[Vox Galactica]] featured a special report from freelance journalist [[Alexei Keel]]: "In his self-proclaimed war against the [[Thargoid]]s, Salvation recently scored a major victory by eliminating their forces from the Cornsar system. But the ongoing mystery around the identity of this 'man of science', as well as his controversial methods, have led to a backlash. To deliver vital components for his mysterious anti-xeno weapon, Salvation once again recruited independent pilots, directly messaging those who had performed tasks for him before. However, this time a counter-initiative was formed by those who did not trust his motivations. It was also supported by believers in non-aggression against the Thargoids, and others who feared that the weapon might endanger Cornsar's population. Their actions involved acquiring the components, which were disguised as [[Basic Medicines|basic medicines]], but destroying rather than delivering them. Whether or not this partial blockade impacted the weapon's effectiveness remains unknown, but it acted as a substantial opposition to Salvation's scheme. [[Aegis]] is investigating the Cornsar incident, but with faith in that organisation at an all-time low, individual [[Commander]]s are now taking matters into their own hands. Time will tell if Salvation's ambition to replace Aegis is a noble goal, or if we are replacing the devil we know with a darker demon."<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/6151b37e8395d050bb7eae36 GalNet: Salvation: Friend or Foe?]</ref>

*The anonymous 'man of science' [[Salvation]] has claimed responsibility for the [[Thargoid]]s' unexplained departure from the Cornsar system. Salvation had predicted their attack, but his claim was discounted by [[Aegis]] and [[Noah Sharrow|other authorities]]. After a few days the Thargoid vessels fled abruptly, leaving behind [[Crashed Thargoid Ship|wreckages]] across the system. The following message was transmitted on public channels: "This is Salvation. The Thargoid invasion of Cornsar has now been repulsed, thanks to prototype anti-xeno weaponry that I have been developing for some time. I have achieved what Aegis could not – an effective deterrent against the alien threat. Refinement of this weapon is at a critical stage, so I cannot reveal any details. I only regret that my warning was not heeded in time to save everyone on the two [[starport]]s. This triumph was only possible thanks to those loyal pilots who answered my call. Rewards will shortly be available from the Bright Sentinel [[megaship]] in the [[Mbooni]] system." Salvation's identity and capabilities remain unknown, but he has established a reputation as a rival to Aegis. He is also knowledgeable about [[Azimuth Biochemicals]], a research company connected to the earliest recorded encounters with [[Guardian]] and Thargoid artefacts.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/614b1b42ee27c94b1b195046 GalNet: Salvation Takes Credit for Repelling Thargoids]</ref>
