Ever wonder if those maps were maybe corrupted on purpose so that something would eat the file out of the system? I've been mulling over the idea that some foul play might have occurred prior to our arrival.
The only remaining members of the crew are lost, alone, and with no information to help us. If they're to be believed and are genuine when they say they have no idea what went on, it's always possible that someone was doing something they shouldn't have and weren't very keen on keeping them in the loop.
It doesn't explain the missing passengers and crew, but it would explain the missing information.
[there's a long pause, as Jim considers this possibility. finally:]
... Damn.
[the thought that not only was this an accident, but they could have been pulled into some kind of political or civil disrupt wasn't exactly the most uplifting of theories.]
[The last thing she wants is for any of them to be caught up in someone else's fight, especially when it leads to complications like an entire ship of crewmen going missing.]
It might just be a conspiracy theory, but when I spoke with Resnik briefly, she didn't seem very pleased when I mentioned it. She said they didn't know.
[it's a short response, but he figures she's smart enough to figure out that he's having this conversation with them right now. Jim isn't sure they can trust them either, after all.]

I couldn't find anything resembling a virus in there, but it's not unlike navigating an asteroid belt so I could have missed it.
What lead you to that conclusion?

My thoughts exactly.

[still, it's an interesting reaction, one that Jim takes note of.]
But if it did, and they don't know, then it's always possible the amnesia we all suffered upon arrival could be more than just a stasis side effect.
[there's a subtle tension in his voice that quietly hints sabotage without being outright.]

[And what he says is a chilling thought.]
That better not be the case.

[Jim lifts one hand and pinches the bridge of his nose. there's still too much they don't know and it's- both frustrating and headache inducing.]
I'll keep trying.

[That's why she's not sure she can trust them.]
Have you spoken to them at length?
