The gist of Calabast's presentation was actually fairly simple.
There were enough signs of valuable resource deposits on the moons of Lemogo Distat.
There were also signs of past alien activity at Auralis.
Ves was fairly happy with the first piece of news.
He felt a lot more ambivalent about the second piece of news.
The first proper planet from the blue supergiant star was not situated close enough that nearby starships would melt from all of the heat.
It was still awfully close to the giant heat source, though. Any starship would not find it pleasant to linger in orbit of Auralis for extended periods of time!
While brief visits were fairly harmless, it became increasingly more difficult to keep the starship's vital systems in healthy condition after weeks of constant exposure!
