Admiral Steven HackettWhen these probes were launched, we didn't have any idea who we were fighting. We didn't want to risk aliens examining our technology.E4 · string 141994
Admiral Steven HackettThe probe has a demo nuke built in. A 20-kiloton tactical fusion warhead. About equal to the bomb dropped on Hiroshima back in the 20th.E5 · string 141995

Admiral Steven HackettNo idea. Lost in transit. These probes were built in a hurry after first contact.E3 · string 1419934 choices
Admiral Steven HackettI know. I wouldn't ask if it wasn't important. These probes have been classified for 26 years.E7 · string 141997
Admiral Steven HackettThe Council would call fusion-bomb booby traps "dangerous and irresponsible." The Alliance would face censure if they find this probe.E8 · string 141998
Admiral Steven HackettI'm asking you because the Normandy can get on-site quickly and quietly. It's in the Voyager Cluster.E9 · string 1419994 choices

It shouldn't be over there.

Shepard says

It's in the Voyager Cluster? That's the opposite side of the Alliance from turian space. How did it get there?

Admiral Steven HackettI don't know. It's possible someone recovered it safely and brought it there.E10 · string 142000

We're busy.

Shepard says

By the time we finish our current objectives, you could have someone else on-site.
