The ship is capable of atmospheric entry and soft landings. It has a crew of twenty, composed of four flight crew, one medic, two security and thirteen scientists.<br/><br/>Everyone has their own cabin. Additionally, each department has either a lab or an office. Flight crew counts as a department their "office" is the bridge, but additionally, the Captain has a day-room off the bridge and connected to his/her cabin. Also, the Engineer has a machine shop down near the engine spaces.<br/><br/>There is a recreation room too, as well as communal showers and "heads" (toilets).<br/><br/>I don't think it's necessary to go into too much detail regarding the actual workings of the ship, as it is going to be on-planet for the entire story.<br/><br/>The ship IS armed, with a single missile turret, capable of launching a maximum of five nuclear tipped missiles, one every thirty seconds. However, the Captain's authorisation is required to arm the turret!<br/><br/>((This is a place-holder post - If people would like me to, I will draw some plans of the ship's layout. This is where I expect most of the human players to start)).
