<em>She holds her own, doesnt she, Ensign Liara.  I am new to the buffering systems though I knew they would be necessary for the Gatekeeper System.  I want them run up to max now that we have successfully held warp for that hour.  Look for any residual leakage or bleed out along the conduits.  Containment and stabilization should also be dialed in also.  Hot damn.  Its good to be under way yet again."</em><br/><br/>"Yes she does.  The feel of smoothly gliding though space is very exciting.  The vibrations are giving me chills."  Liara brought up the designated systems as he mentioned them.  Manipulating the system diagnostic readouts, Liara ensured that her information was correct before she responded to the Lieutenant.  "Lieutenant, at optimum efficiency, the Gatekeeper buffers should never exceed eighty three percent.  There is a system reserve set into the buffers for over powering the warp core, such as if we ever exceeded warp nine for an extended period of time."  Liara brought up the diagnostic data from the short jump from Earth to Pluto.  The chart showed a relatively steady power output through the run.  There were a few instances where power levels jumped unnecessarily that Liara couldn't account for.  Reviewing the system readings accompanying the propulsion power use, Liara made a mental note of the fluctuations in the power levels.  "There seems to have been some spikes in the nacell power use during the run.  There may be some resistance coming from the neuro-gel packs along the distribution system."
