If Ryder speaks with the Irritated Researcher first -
A Voeld scientist is complaining about some kind of interference with his equipment.
If SAM alerts Ryder to the signal nearby first -
An unknown source is causing interference with Voeld's communication equipment. Clear communication is important to Voeld's viability. Any possibility that the kett are somehow tapping in to communications should be investigated.
A strange meteorite appears to be the source of the communication interference. It must be dealt with.
Acquisition 
Edit
This mission can be acquired by two different methods:
- Speak to the Irritated Researcher in Hjara Station (inside the first building).
- SAM will alert Pathfinder Ryder to a signal interfering with communications equipment if Ryder gets close enough to the source.
Walkthrough Edit
Examine The Equipment Edit
Note: This objective is only shown in game if acquired at Hjara Station.
Examine the equipment next to the researcher. SAM detects a faint regular pattern in the signal, indicating it could be potential kett interference, which must be investigated.
Search For Interference Source Edit
The source turns out to be a meteorite emitting radiation that disturbs communication signals.
Defeat Ahdi Edit
Defeat the attacking pack of Wild Adhi.
Scan Meteorite Edit
SAM can modify Ryder's omni tool so it will dampen the disturbing radiation.
Neutralize Signal Edit
Interact with the meteorite. Another pack of wild adhi has to be killed. Interact with the meteorite again to dampen the signal.
Examine Meteorite Edit
It turns out to be a meteorite that has picked up some traces of the Scourge.
Ryder then has to decide what to do with the meteorite: send it to the Nexus to be studied, or leave it on the planet, citing it as too dangerous.
Aftermath Edit
If the meteorite is sent to the Nexus, Ryder receives a mail from Chief Lucan.
