*An investigation into the tri-superpower organisation [[Aegis]] is seeking to establish the reasons for its failures. Dr [[Paul Baumann]], chair of the independent board of inquiry, outlined its scope: "The initial phase is to fully understand the work of Aegis, before examining strategic and operational decisions. Interviews with senior staff have been scheduled, with Admiral [[Aden Tanner]] providing details on military activity. One specific area of attention is the lost megaship Alexandria. We are performing a thorough analysis, including background checks on its crew. [[Hyperspace]] physicists are theorising probable causes for its failure to arrive at HIP 30944. We will be raising issues of culpability, specifically whether the concentration of [[Guardian]] artefacts aboard the Alexandria directly led to systems coming under [[Thargoid]] attack. Other incidents will be reviewed to identify possible grounds for negligence." Many prominent figures within Aegis have resigned including Professor [[Alba Tesreau]], Director Yazhu Xing and Dr [[Mia Valencourt]]. All active projects have been suspended, with routine activities continuing under independent observation. Some politicians in all three superpowers have protested against the inquiry, concerned about weakening defences against the Thargoids. Others believe Aegis is not fit for purpose, calling for a more localised approach to anti-xeno operations.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/6113bc98317a0c774b712154 GalNet: Aegis Probed by Board of Inquiry]</ref>

*The superpowers have partly suspended [[Aegis]] and authorised an inquiry into the Alexandria [[megaship]], which disappeared in [[hyperspace]]. Freelance journalist [[Alexei Keel]] reported on this development for [[Vox Galactica]]: "Public opinion regarding Aegis has always been chequered, but its founding governments insisted that it played a vital defensive role against the [[Thargoid]]s. The tragic loss of the Alexandria, carrying thousands of crewmembers and valuable [[Guardian]] artefacts, has now raised questions about the organisation's competence. The [[Alliance]], [[Empire]] and [[Federation]] have jointly ordered an independent inquiry to determine the facts about the Alexandria. Many Aegis operations were shut down, and detailed investigations have begun. Professor [[Alba Tesreau]] and other senior members have already been forced to resign. Part of the reason for such scrutiny is the emergence of the anonymous '[[Salvation]]', who many view as running an alternative anti-xeno effort. Some security agencies suspect him to be the leader of an Aegis splinter group, composed of rogue agents and stolen resources."<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/61001290b7627a262920271c GalNet: Aegis Investigated After Megaship Loss]</ref>
