Three months passed. It wasn't a particularly long time, but it felt like it flew by in the blink of an eye.
The Deep Space had reached three times the speed of light before beginning its rapid deceleration down to sub-light speeds.
Everything was proceeding perfectly according to plan, and nothing major had gone wrong.
By the way, a new frigate manufacturing plan had recently been added to the schedule!
Faced with this new project, the engineering teams were eager to get started. They happened to have a lot of free time on their hands anyway, and building a few escort frigates wouldn't pose much of a technical challenge.
The initial blueprints were quickly drafted. Given the Precursors' technological prowess and the Federation's upgraded industrial standards, a working prototype could be built in just a few months.
