When Bajorans Crossed the Stars.

The talk surrounding the archaeological findings from the original planetary survey, conducted long before the colony was even established, is absolutely rife at the moment.

It is, admittedly, intriguing that no excavation work was carried out at the time. According to the latest information, however, a dedicated team will finally be examining the site in the coming weeks.

One particularly fascinating detail, apparently leaked from early analyses, suggests that the structural remains, buried roughly three feet beneath the surface, are of Bajoran origin and approximately seven centuries old.

Considering that the Bajoran system lies about 9.3 light‑years from Docosie, the idea isn’t entirely far‑fetched. We know the Bajorans were using lightships as early as the 16th century, and one such vessel was famously discovered on Cardassia, only 5.2 light‑yearsfrom Bajor.

So it is entirely plausible that a crew could have ventured this far. The real questions are: who were they, and why were they here.

I have to admit, I’m utterly captivated by this revelation and sincerely hope to be involved in some capacity as the investigation unfolds.
