[Note 20.]
The scratches apparently are of natural origins. Thorough scan of the entire surface proved them to be completely random. But the fact is, that even though the material is unknown, starboard computer managed to recognize two different patterns in a molecular structure of this cube. Sides are different to the edges, which implies that the cube was forged from two unknown materials to finally form its current shape. It may be some sort of a container, but I have no idea how to open it. There must be something important inside. I wonder what it may be?
I remember an old deep space pilot telling a story that he allegedly used to possess a similar thing - a container that no one knew how to open and during one of his trips it suddenly popped wide open showing him things that I think are rather inappropriate to quote here. Everyone then made a good laugh of him and suggested that he might not actually mean a space journey by saying 'trip' and that he should definitely cut himself off from catnip. I was laughing too, but now I think that there might have been a grain of truth in the story told by that old fella. What if there are special conditons that when met would activate a secret mechanism inside the cube and open it? And what the conditions may be? What might be hidden inside it if anything?
