Go to Alec's quarters and pick up the memory trigger.
Go back to SAM Node and speak with SAM.
From time to time, after collecting a few memory triggers (3?), you will be able to return to SAM Node and watch another unlocked memory.
This objective will be added to your journal when you complete A Better Beginning mission.
Locations of other memory triggers.
Accessible during / after A Dying Planet mission.
This mission objective will be added to your journal when you unlock the memory about the mysterious "benefactor".
Go to Alec's room and listen to "benefactor" logs.
Garson investigation [CLOSED]
File #1A98 - Addendum
Update to the missing persons report filed on Jien Garson: maintenance crew found her body in a Nexus apartment. Severe burns were apparent, similar to others we saw who were killed during Scourge disaster. It's unclear how she got there, but confusion and disorientation during the Scourge event are likely. Events align with the timeline.
CAUSE OF DEATH: Casualty of Scourge disaster.
STATUS: Case closed
"Secret message".
You need to find and unlock all memory triggers and progress main story, meet with your sister / brother at the beginning of The Journey to Meridian mission.
Talk to SAM in SAM Node one more time.
Removal of the memory block sheds light on the renewed urgency behind the Initiative's launch. An unknown benefactor working with Jien Garson, and Alec Ryder himself, believed claims concerning "the Reapers," reportedly a galaxy-wide menace that returns at 50,000-year intervals to threaten all life in the Milky Way. The Andromeda Initiative's priorities secretly changed from a purely scientific and colonization effort, to a last-resort measure to preserve sentient life.
Details on the current situation in the Milky Way are sparse and impossible to confirm. A non-QEC signal in either direction, traveling at light speed, would take 2.5 million years to arrive. This lends new weight to the Initiative's success here in Andromeda.
You have unlocked your father's final memory, which revealed that your mother is still alive—aboard the Hyperion. Visit her stasis pod.
