The planet was very strangely positioned, needing to pass through a layer of red stardust before arriving. There was no radar system that could have located its existence, and it was not possible to find it even with the latest star maps from the Alliance.
The thick layer of stardust and the mess of complicated multi-spectral signals interfered completely with a warship's visual and radar systems. Xia Fei followed Phantom's instructions and dove down at a constant speed while maintaining a forty-five-degree angle, only making it through after flying the ship for over an hour.
Xia Fei peered through the window and looked down at the planet, only to see the sparkling red stardust around. A dim, green planet existed inside that layer of clouds, which had been formed due to the stardust.
