"But this academician was never technically there in the first place. Legally speaking. Because it was all a big secret. So Tri-Tachyon isn't, um, cooperating. Do you see?"

Alviss Sebestyen

"Extract 'Researcher'" is the first 'true' mission in the Galatia Academy mission chain. The player has to rescue an Academy researcher from a secret Tri-Tachyon black site.

Acquisition

This mission can be obtained by talking to Alviss Sebestyen at the Galatia Academy, after reaching friendly (>50) relations with him.

Walkthrough

The player will be instructed to travel to a planet in a distant system (typically one on the fringe of the map, and not already explored by the player). The location of the system will not be disclosed until after accepting the mission. Sebestyen advises the player to avoid the main jump points and enter the system via a gravity well, to evade the mercenary fleets patrolling the system. The mercs will pursue the player very aggressively once detected, so it is best to avoid being seen.

Upon arriving at the target planet, after some dialog, the researcher will come aboard the player fleet and provide the Transverse Jump ability. The merc fleets will converge on this location, so it is recommended to use the new ability to jump out and escape.

Return to the Academy and speak to Sebestyen to complete the mission.
