Summary
Using Radio Direction Finding technologies and your mapping skills. you will need to localise position indicating beacons and navigate through unforgiving terrain to find the items.
Narrative
Welcome to Starfleet Academy's Search and Rescue (SAR) training module. Upon completion of this course you'll be ready to beam down to an alien planet, and use your skills to locate and possibly retrieve injured personnel, valuable artifacts, or dangerous materials. Sometimes you may need to operate within pre-warp societies where it is not appropriate to use advanced technologies so in this Mission you will be trained to use technology in a way that does not violate The Prime Directive. You will use your technology from a hidden location to map the locations of the equipment you need to recover before entering the harsh alien terrain with only your map to guide you on your quest.
