A Delay

The first official round of experiments was launched at the Delta 907 Cradle facility on April 17, 2018. The place was shut down on September 28, 2021. Did the final Great One to enter this area enjoy their Earthly feast and return to their space satisfied? Or did they remain as inscrutable as ever? The crumbs from that feast were left to the Stardust, and to the Great One's lowly "Kin." Just as we humans leave our scraps to the insects and the hungry dogs. According to the plan, the second round of experimentation should have begun within ten years after the end of the first. However, due to a range of uncontrollable external factors, we returned to the surface seven years later than originally scheduled. This has resulted in much higher-than-expected damage to all Cradle facilities (including natural corrosion, external damage, and the effects of Stardust erosion). Given that Rosetta's infrastructure capacity is currently far lower than it was before the Starfall, it may take ten years to repair the facility and start the second round of experiments. From now, we must start anew.
