The below description is one of several available for this event.

The ship has been permanently converted into the administrative headquarters of the new settlement, and its reactor core is in the process of being removed so that it may serve as the colony's temporary power source.
Hundreds of small tents and prefab shelters have sprung up around the former starship's massive hull as colonists begin to disembark in large numbers - the first [Root.Owner.GetSpeciesName] city on an alien world.

These particular xenos appear to have been active on the galactic stage for some time - their empire is likely thousands of years old, and their technology is far ahead of our own. We should be careful when dealing with them.
