Well, Kyle and I debated which of us would be responsible for this report, but alas, he prevailed on the grounds he delivered one a scant week prior.

So, Nevada.

In brief, the readings detected by eXcalibur were indeed indicative of a dimensional breech. It was an alien craft, in every sense of the world; the visitors were not only from another dimension, but space-farers. Those we initially took to be the crew also proved to be shapeshifters colloquially referred to as "the Brood" in their native world, which might itself have been nothing but an amusing cultural difference had they not been intent on covertly propagating their race across the galaxy. I think it may rightly be said that diplomatic relations broke down around the time they began implanting us with their parasitic spawn. We weren't even offered dinner.

The vessel and its rightful crew have departed; Hawkeye and Bruiser successfully assisted in repairs, and it sounds as if Namor and Daredevil advised on some diplomatic concerns as well. Further, all present underwent rigorous examination and treatment before returning to ensure no unwanted hitchhikers. We have been cleared through the Medlab as well as an additional precaution.

Once again, my apologies to Mockingbird for suggesting this as a first mission. However, your catch with the cryo-suite was quite invaluable.
