Tab 1: Stellar Surveys

This reports only what type of stellar object exists at the point being observed.

• If it's a star, it will report star class
• If it's a multiple star system, it'll report each of the star classes
• If it's a lost planet, report planet class (of the 2 available)
• If it's a nova, report also the size
• If it's a nebula, report also the size
• If it's a pulsar, report
• if it's a wormhole, report only the wormhole (not the destination)

Tab 2: Intrasystem Surveys

This reports on the planetary systems around the target star(s). For campaign simplicity, all planetary systems will be limited to 1 per star system (it presumes they orbit all stars or are safely within the internal orbits of one star). The primary star (for multiple systems) is the one chosen for this report.

The report starts with a drop-down of the target star class. IR Sequence stars and black holes will not be among the selections.

The report first indicates how many planets exist. If it is reporting on one of the UV sequence stars, it should also report they are all charred rockballs.

Next, up to 18 orbits are listed, with each of the allowed orbits (per the Intrasystem Survey (Part 1) table) filled by a planet class from Intrasystem Survey (Part 2).

Tab 3: Habitability Surveys

Simple reports of categories A-I, and whether or not sentient life was detected for J.

If J is positive, then report on the results of the Xeno-anthropology Surveys.
