Incredibly, none have appeared, nor have any been reported. The crew is tense and on edge. They don't know what is happening, nor even why we are here, and that makes them nervous. I cannot explain what is happening, but I refuse to resort to bogeyman explanations. No further problems, but we will delay start of operations in the morning for several hours so the crew can catch up on lost sleep.
Tired people make silly mistakes.
I want everyone sharp and alert. The strange fog is still with us and becoming denser all the time. It is a dirty yellow in color and has a distinct greasy feel to it. More than anything else, it resembles smog, but it isn't that either. You can't even see from the bow to the stern anymore.
