Could it, as the preliminary scans said, truly be an artificial object?

My preliminary scans showed absolutely no magnatomic adhesion bonds in the whole craft.

Their preliminary scans showed there were well over a hundred decks below this one.

Since we did the preliminary scans, we got the assignment.

The only good thing about it is that there was very little fallout detectable when the first scouting ship did the preliminary scans.

Ships, some of which, preliminary scans showed, were millions- if not more- years old.

"According to my preliminary temporal scans, more than ninety-three percent of the components on Voyager are less than eighteen months old."

I have, however, found one anomaly: preliminary scans at the genetic level show that your telomeres have been shortened.

"It's still present, but preliminary scans show local conditions are approaching normal."

"Maybe not even a whole day if the affected areas are limited to what we found in the preliminary scans."
