There were close relations with New Utah, until the Alderson tram lines to it were lost sometime during the Secession Wars.
Notify the Navy ships on patrol at the Alderson entry points and follow instructions.
It has been known since CoDominium times that Alderson tramlines form as nearly instantaneously as anything can be in this universe.
Spacesuit and habitat technology had not moved as fast as spacecraft technology using Alderson Drive and Langston Field.
The time required to travel from one Alderson point to another is immeasurably short.
This can take weeks to months depending on the Alderson geometry, ship speed, and logistics.
They watched an iceball two kilometers across emerge from the invisible Alderson point.
We’ve speculated that they may want to locate the Alderson point more precisely-at their end, in Mote system-but they know that well enough to send ships through at point one percent of lightspeed.
Meanwhile, we expect at least one more unguarded Alderson point leading from the Mote into normal space rather than to the inside of a star.
And since Alderson Path events happen nearly instantaneously, all this will happen before any light from the protostar reaches us-or reaches the Mote.
The Navy has ways to determine the location, and thus presumably the existence, of Alderson points without sending ships through them.

Somewhere in the back of her mind she knew the ship had made an Alderson Jump, and she was in the grip of the disorientation that always followed.
Now her brother’s voice said, “We’re taking three ships to the incipient Alderson point, the I-point, at MGC-R-31.
By then Buckman had calculated a series of distances and masses that might account for the shift in the Alderson point.
