[ ] - Other _____ (Place an x in the box that applies. If other, replace line and specify.)

Overview of the Incident: 
Shift start. Engineering splits up to commence shift-start tasks. Engineer Neely takes Supermatter Ignition; Engineer Kolmstadt takes on training Apprentice Shi'berud, reviewing gear lockers (just outside SM). Atmospheric alarm is triggered in the SM reactor compartment. AI reports Engineer Neely opened the hydrogen canisters, which coupled with active emitter caused immediate hydrogen fire and temperature/pressure spike within SM reactor, along with draining loops of coolant. AI then reports Neely opens the filter bypass pump, causing superheated gas to fill and disable the scrubber lines ship-wide for the duration of the shift, despite ardent efforts by Technician Kaneko to clear them.

Engineer Neely's patterns of behavior, while often frustrating and irritating, have not previously provoked incidents of this severity or potential consequence. The combination of reported actions (opening hydrogen cans inside reactor w/ active ignition source, and opening critical valves causing serious damage to atmospherics systems) are cause for grave concern for safety of crew and integrity of ship systems.

Submitted Evidence: 
N/A - Telemetry not collected during incident due to extremity of events, comms logs unavailable to me following incident.

Would you like to be personally interviewed?
[X] - Yes
[ ] - No

Did you report it to a Head of Staff or a superior? If so, who? If not, why?
Morgan Guillame, Captain.

Actions taken:
Immediately following incident, Engineer Kolmstadt enters SM reactor chamber to begin remediation, Engineer Neely scrubs out. Due to compartment power failure (and scrubber line shutdown), Engineer Kolmstadt removes a section of outer window in the starboard exterior access airlock vestibule to decompress and vent the reactor compartment. Once superheated gas is vented, lines are refilled with liquid nitrogen (2x canisters) and hydrogen (canisters filled and provided by Technician Kaneko).

After SM crystal temperatures stabilize, additional emitter pulses are fired to bring it to nominal low-power state to safely resume provision of ship-wide power. Engineering crew is debriefed by Captain Guillame. Investigators are brought in to interview and investigate grounds, but (to my knowledge) no charges are brought.
