As of 13 September [[3029]] the ''Diver'' had been recharging its drive at the nadir [[jump point]] of the [[Canopus]] system for several days already when the ''[[Merchant]]''-class ''[[Rana]]'' jumped in right on top of their position, causing a jump collision that fused both JumpShips together and killed (at least) three techs aboard the ''Rana''.

The ''Diver'' was initially going to cut the ''Rana'' off lest the drift imparted tear both JumpShips apart, but [[Richard Humphreys (31st c.)|Richard Humphreys]] (who was traveling aboard the ''Rana'') came up with the idea to use the attitude thrusters of one of the ''Rana'''s DropShips instead to counter the drift.<ref>''Gier'', pp. 7-17</ref>
