"Of course, Captain," comes the reply. "Asteroid Berger-Behregen. Diameter: 14.837km at the widest point. Rotation: 27 hours, 43 minutes, 12 seconds. Mass: unknown. Orbit: stationary. Energy output consistent with an Einstein-Rosen bridge, subtype: world tunnel."
Lindsey nods. The information from the probe matches the conclusions of the scientists back on Earth Station. "Do we have a point of entry?" she asks.
Lady's response is immediate. "Wormhole access is 6.31km inside the asteroid. Multiple points of approach."
