TRAVEL LOG FOR SELDEN CENTER CONFERENCE ON XENOBIOLOGY
BEGIN DICTATION:
Good morning, Ana! I know I'll be home soon, but the Selden Center conference went so well, I couldn't wait to tell you about it! Now I'm sorry I didn't use the terminus to travel, but you know how I hate scrambling my electrons. Anyway, it's only two hyper jumps to home, so it's not too bad. I should be home by early afternoon if Eden Spaceport isn't too jammed.
So, to the news: my keynote address went VERY well. A standing ovation at the end -- and you know that NEVER happens.
As you know, I unveiled details of the diplo species we found on the Todawat V moon, and it just created a sensation. Your images, I have to say, made a huge impression. I'll upload the one they loved most after I send this! If I were you, I'd get ready for a deluge of publication requests. There have been rumors of diplo sightings in some of the remote regions of the galaxy, of course, but these are the first we've been able to verify -- and so (relatively) close to home! There's going to be a hunger for still images and vids, so start picking out your favorites. A star is born!
Anyway, I'll give you a blow-by-blow account when I get home, but just wanted to touch base and share the good news. I think our funding is assured for as long as we like, now! Love you baby, and see you soon!

This one drew audible gasps from the audience, Ana.
