"A few weeks ago," the Commandant said, "one of our amateurs had
a lens on the Hole, just looking. He saw a glow. He reported to us;
we checked and saw the same thing. There is a faint light coming
out of the Hole -- obviously, a sun, a star inside the cloud, just
far enough in to be almost invisible. God knows how long it's been
there, but we do know that there's never been a record of a light
in the Hole. Apparently this star orbited in some time ago, and is
now on its way out. It is just approaching the edge of the cloud.
Do you follow me?"
"Yes, sir," Beauclaire said.
"Your job is this: You will investigate that sun for livable
planets and alien life. If you find anything -- which is highly
unlikely -- you are to decipher the language and come right back. A
Psych team will go out and determine the effects of a starless sky
upon the alien culture -- obviously, these people will never have
seen the stars."
