Juno's Gambit Choice Guide

Attaching Control Board Will Cause Juno to Kill the Operatives

Attaching the Control Board as per the Ryujin Operatives' suggestion will anger Juno and prompt it to shut down the Life Support System, essentially killing both operatives before Gravjumping away.

You will still receive the quest rewards; only the ending will change.

Starfield - Deal with Operatives

If you choose to Deal with Ryujin Operatives and you have not joined the Ryujin Faction yet, you will be forced to kill both of them to finish the quest.

Being part of Ryujin, however, opens a dialogue option to show your credentials, prompting the operatives to believe in you, and leave the ship alone.

Similar to the other endings, the quest reward will not change, only the story ending of this particular sidequest.
