The Adamoi have been extremely gracious and hospitable hosts, but our assigned mission to their homeworld is at a close. We were sent here to open first contact protocols, and we have done so – and made a few friends in the process. When we leave orbit this weekend, we will be leaving a team of diplomats behind to continue working with the Adamoi until Federation ambassadors can arrive next month. After that, we’ll see. I wouldn’t be surprised if things move quickly in terms of Federation membership (which the Adamoi have requested), especially given the Adamoi’s location both here on the frontier, and within 20 light years of Ferengi space.
If all goes well, the Enterprise could be credited with facilitating the addition of the newest member of the Federation. That’s not a bad notch in our belt, as the Enterprise-D begins to make a name for itself here among the stars.
