Object
Large Navigation Map
A massive, unrolled star chart dominates the scanner room's wall, its surface marked with glowing coordinate lines and the trajectory of Crayford's XK-5 vessel as it descends through Earth's atmosphere. Grierson and his team crowd around it, fingers tracing the ship's path with practiced urgency while plastic-tipped pointers hover over critical approach vectors. The map's illumination casts sharp shadows, making the tracking data pulse like a heartbeat against the starfield backdrop.

Purpose
To display real-time spatial data for tracking spacecraft movement and orbital mechanics during critical navigation sequences
Significance
This map serves as the visual anchor for SDC's tracking triumph and subsequent crisis, where every confirmed coordinate becomes both a validation of their technology and a potential android entry point. Its glow transforms from triumphant marker to ominous vulnerability as the crew realizes their navigational precision could be exploited.
