Information is found on over 500,000 New America sympathizers in the entire American Arm including the Core Worlds (the vast majority of them are here on Ellis).

The team also is involved in the discovery of a vast cavern and tunnel network that WASN'T built by the Terrorists and is many thousands of years old. The caverns also contain ancient machinery, some of which appears to have been removed (Looted by New American Terrorists?)

The last bit of information retrieved from the captured servers in confirmation that the Pirate activity in this system is run by the New America Terrorists. Their space base in the system will need to be found quickly before they leave the star system...
