			<b><u>The story so far:</u></b><br>
<br>
The year was 2188 - the colonies of the solar system and their mother nations had for over eight years become embroiled in a war of unprecedented scope and scale across terrestrial space. The two sides of the war stood at stalemate, threatening to escalate into a full-blown conflict on Earth.<br>
<br>
It was in the 2157 prelude to this war that <i>Project Darkshot</i>, the Union of Fennoscandia's 2120s project to create interstellar colony ships reached an accelerated, successful conclusion after being revived twenty years prior. Three large, self-sufficient ships were launched from Jovian orbit, containing European, British, Alanian, and Fennoscandian volunteers and refugees who, more than anything, were fleeing from what they perceived might be violent end of civilization.<br>
<br>
-<br>
<br>
The War In Heaven, as it came to be called, would not end human civilization, but the ships had already sailed long ago when it reached its conclusion in 2190.<br>
<br>
The aftermath of the war reshaped the geo-political and economic landscape of the world, marked by the tumultuous dual hegemony of the European Federation and the Peoples' Republic of China, held together by the glue of new international political organizations and a resurgent third party in the Russian Federation.<br>
<br>
Life would largely go on in this two-sided world until on one starry night in June of 2285, researchers at the Stockholm Observatory in Fennoscandia received a peculiar signal.<br>
<br>
Though it had been a long time coming, the Fennoscandians already knew what to expect - the errant signal came in dated, foreign dialect, but it was indeed Fennoscandian. The three colony ships sent just under a century ago to the nearest theoretically habitable starsystem had arrived, and were reporting their success. The arrival report had already been over fourty years old by the time it arrived to Earth, but it was nonetheless revolutionary - not only had Fennoscandia proven that manned interstellar travel was feasible, but that there existed other habitable planets in the universe.<br>
<br>
Over the years, analysis of the transmission became a hot topic in the scientific research - Fennoscandian scientists, using info provided by the Fennoscandian expeditionaries, made a myriad of advancements to scientific theory, much to the excitement of the world, and indeed the solar system at large. Interest in further endeavors skyrocketed. However, rising tensions on Earth over solar territorial disputes cut-short any attempts to pursue interstellar expeditions. With the reply fourty-years enroute, Fennoscandia's space agency could do nothing more than wait.<br>
<br>
The interstellar achievements of Fennoscandia faded into history, as all things did. As the world churned along into the 24th century, optimism would be replaced by discontent and unity replaced by division. The next hundred years of human history would see the evolution of new, solar ideologies as human identity became wholly separate from Earth.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
...<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Our story begins in 2312. Faced with political injustices, poor economic performance, and a dark past marred by the grey flu, trans-solar humans across Sol have begun to rise up and demand independence from the nations of Earth. With growing solar nationalism threatening to cut off vital colonies and resources, Earth's eminent governments have become increasingly militarized, building fleets across the solar system. What started with the violent overthrow of India's colonial government on Mars would spread further across the solar system, sparking a string of revolutions and rebellions the scope of which has never been seen before. Colonies from Pluto to the green jewel of the Moon - China's Baixing, would be devastated by military crackdowns.<br>
<br>
By 2315, humanity faces down the greatest refugee crisis in human history, as millions live in exile across the solar system, starving and dying in disparate 'flotillas' floating along in the empty spaces between the colonies. Those 'refugee-camps' which gain the ire of authorities are scuttled and forcibly relocated to ghettos on poorly-developed asteroids and moons, while the rest are left to starve, blocked off from shipping lanes by military patrols.<br>
<br>
A glister of hope would shine through the darkness in 2320, following the European Federation's recognition of the Saturnian and Jovian colonies' independence. However, these concessions came at great cost, and the newly-christened Republics of Jupiter and Saturn refused to take on the brunt of displaced trans-solars. For the more well-off and socially significant, a home could be found in these European colonies. For the rest, a brutal existence in orbit was all that the colonies would allow.<br>
<br>
Following the integration of many independent colonies into the solar political establishment, solutions to the refugee crisis would become a lasting political point of the 24th century, and would come to culminate in the 'New Worlds' doctrine espoused by leaders of the refugee flotillas.<br>
<br>
-<br>
<br>
For both the foolhardy colonies and the ancien regimes of Earth, the displaced peoples of the solar system were a burden, and 'New Worlds' was the solution - the poor, the hungry, the tired had to leave.<br>
<br>
Forever.<br>
<br>
But, some saw it differently - it was a true glimmer of hope, to build a new society, far away from the civilization of old which built this dark reality - a chance to start anew.<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>The year is 2325.</b> You are one of seven admirals in a multi-national, Fennoscandian-led fleet of colony ships setting sail for the TRAPPIST-1 system, where long ago Fennoscandian pioneers sought to find refuge from war and pestilence.<br>
<br>
Your mission is monumental, and the stakes are life itself. The journey will take a hundred years, and only your grandchildren will have the opportunity to see its end. Your colony ship is equipped with provisions and facilities to house twenty-thousand people, including the next two generations. If you succeed, you will pave the way for further colonization of Sol's neighboring stars, and you will finally be able to answer on the fate of the Fennoscandian DARKSHOT expedition.

With years of planning and political negotiations on the chopping block, the Solar Commerce Organization has decided to arbitrate the matter.<br>
<br>
Now, the SCO has put the results of the arbitration to an open negotiation between the SCO ship admirals. In the follow weeks, admirals will meet to discuss a solution to the issue and vote to decide whether adjustments should be made to the Russian fleet demographics, and whether to impose any penalties over allegations that Russia purposefully excluded stateless refugees from their roster

			The first phase of the RP will be a choose-your-own-adventure style journey which takes place over the hundred-year trip to TRAPPIST-1. Players will be confronted with situations and news going on in their and other ships, the outcome of which will be influenced by individual and collective choices of the admirals, in turn affecting your fortunes and the outlook of the ships.<br>
<br>
Some situations will result in demographic/ideological changes, which will be reflected graphically.<br>
<br>
The first phase of the RP starts pre-journey.<br>
<br>
The RP will be coordinated thru discord, but most things will be posted here.

			<b>15th of February, 2326</b><br>
<br>
Crowds numbering in the thousands rubbed shoulders at the Lundström Memorial Spaceport at Earth-Sol L1, anticipating the monumental launch of the New Worlds Solar Endeavor fleet. Seven brave admirals and thousands of courageous crew volunteered on year ago to sacrifice their lives in the name of humanity's colonization of the stars. Today, seven ships will take off from L1, never to see the solar system again.<br>
<br>
All the cargo is loaded. All passengers are sat tight in their habs. All systems are online.<br>
<br>
Ready for launch.<br>
<br>
As the final preparations are made, onlookers await the countdown...

<br>
<br>
<i>Cheered on by roaring crowds and an international net audience exceeding three billion, the New Worlds Solar Fleet has departed L1 Earth-Sol without a hitch, taking advantage of a velocity boost provided by the International Mass Accelerator. </i><br>
<br>
<i>The fleet's seven admirals watched a live external feed of the launch, with crowds cheering as the last ship boosted down the IMA Megal-loop. Through a two-way channel, the New Worlds admirals bade their audience farewell, setting a new record for the most watched broadcast in history.</i><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<i>Ten days since launch, the Solar Fleet has now flown by Mars for a brief gravity boost (and publicity stunt!) well on its way toward the outer reaches of the solar system. At current scheduled pace, the fleet is expected to reach Pluto before the end of the year.</i>

			I will be posting small updates in frequent succession to model the initial stages of the journey. During these updates, small situations and events may occur. <br>
<br>
<b>PRIME-TIME:</b><br>
Starting after the fleet leaves the solar system and enters interstellar space, the meat of your journey is parceled out in ten-year increments, referred to henceforth as 'cycles.'<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>META INFO ABOUT THE JOURNEY</b><br>
-Each cycle, each ship will encounter a minor onboard event or situation to which that ship's admiral may respond. <br>
<br>
-Followed by these small events will often be a major event that requires the decision of multiple or all admirals of the fleet. <br>
<br>
-Additionally, admirals will have the opportunity to take several 'freeform' actions each cycle - anything from holding inter-ship political debates to banning blue hats on your ship. <br>
<br>
-Lastly, Admirals will have the opportunity to direct scientific research toward an application they see fit. I will not tell you directly what it is possible to research as that's part of the challenge of researching! If you have any questions or don't know where to start, however, you can ask GM for input from your 'lab advisors'.

			The New Worlds Solar Fleet is nearing the outer edge of the solar system, now amidst the Kuiper belt objects.<br>
<br>
<i>The solar fleet is now well on its way toward interstellar space, but SCO has now petitioned the admirals for a special task:</i><br>
<br>
<i>Given the New Worlds fleet's current vector, a unique opportunity has arisen to attempt a flyby of 90377 Sedna, a dwarf planet and one of the most distant natural objects in the solar system. The planet has never been directly imaged at geographically discernible resolution, and a direct flyby would provide important information about the topography and makeup of  trans-Neptunian sednoids.</i><br>
<br>
<i>The estimated fuel cost for such a diversion is 0.15% for all ships.</i><br>
<br>
<i>The SCO has also floated, given the fleet's ideal proximity to the object, that a probe be constructed on-board and launched toward the object to image it remotely. This would cost far less fuel, but require the use of some onboard parts, ranging into: 3% parts for one ship or 0.40% parts if all ships contribute.)</i><br>
<br>
<i>The direct flyby option will require unanimous consent of the admirals, while the probe option may be either a collective or individual decision. If neither option prevails, the fleet will continue on its current prescribed path.</i>

			<b>16 October, 2328</b><br>
<br>
It has now been almost two years since the launch of the New Worlds Solar Fleet, and the fleet continues its ascent toward the very-distant TRAPPIST system.<br>
<br>
Admirals of the fleet released a final, solemn photo of their view of the solar system, along with a message of farewell as the fleet steadily crept toward the range-limit of their communication equipment.<br>
<br>
World leaders gathered earlier in the year to commemorate the launch of the fleet. Heading this year's Solar Peace Conference, China's Director Yang Lingxin bade the intrepid fleet a final farewell and good-luck, but vowed to spearhead talks regarding the future expansion of the New Worlds program with new fleets and new missions.<br>
<br>
For these thousands of brave, though, that was all behind them. All that lay ahead was the void, and the lives they'd live within it. The future generations who would live to see TRAPPIST's warm glow now relied on them to pave the way.<br>
<br>
It was now a long journey ahead.

			<b>Union of Fennoscandia</b><br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/1546020399148-png.519056/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/456/456018-cd6c4be9f44e3c2fd3df65e2b0d1a2de.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="1546020399148.png" title="1546020399148.png" width="100" height="60" loading="lazy"></a><br>
<i><span style="font-size: 12px">Flag of the Union of Fennoscandia</span></i><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Chief among the powers of Earth, and a foundational country of the Solar Commerce Organization, Fennoscandia is the undisputed beacon of liberty on Earth, with a storied and respected history among the nations of Earth and those among the Solar System at large.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Born as an experiment of political unity during the tumultuous era of the oil collapse (c. 2055), the Union, originally of Norway, Finland and Sweden, saw political success through embracing a parallel relationship with the burgeoning European Federation, opposing its enemies and detractors leading up to formation.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">In the 2070s, Fennoscandia saw its territory expand to encompass the former-Karelia and Murmansk oblasts with the onset of the Russian civil war. Fennoscandia's occupation of Karelia and Murmansk would remain a point of hostility between Fennoscandia and Russia for several centuries onward, but today Murmanskis and Karelians are indeed as Fennoscandian as any other, largely due to the efforts of activist Prime-Minister Hans Lundström, whose 2123 election would mark a turning point for Fennoscandia on the world stage.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">As a result of economic and technological alliances forged with the Euroskeptic United Kingdom, Lundström's "One Europe" policy became a reality, and the United Kingdom would, gradually, be brought into a greater political sphere between the Federation and Union, paving the way for the creation of the North Sea Organization and its parent body, the European Solar Command, the latter of which retains its prominence today.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">EUROSOLCOM was born during the era leading up to the War in Heaven as a result of the wide axial military alliances between nominally friendly states. Because Europeans had concentrated their colonization efforts toward the outer solar system, North-South American encroachment posed a significant risk to the whole, and therefore led way to the creation of a joint European military body in the Solar System</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Following the end of the War in Heaven, and the fortunate closing of the era now known as <i>The Last Days</i>, Fennoscandia would find renewed geopolitical power among the victorious Sino-European alliance, finding its new place in the solar system as a permanent body of the Solar Commerce Organization - an interplanetary government body compared today to the United Nations.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Fennoscandia's role in the New Worlds Solar Endeavor is instrumental, and Fennoscandians were the first to pave the way to the stars with the revival of the DARKSHOT program during the War in Heaven. The NWSE, formerly known as SECOND SHOT, is a direct result of Fennoscandian innovations in interstellar spaceflight.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Representing for Fennoscandia and her former-colonies in the NWSE is Lieutenant Jannika Spjuth of the Fennoscandian National Space Agency. Spjuth is a well-known proponent of the program, and an accredited aerospace engineer. Spjuth first entered the public eye during the <i>Years of Liberty</i>, during which dozens of interplanetary colonies seceded from their parent nations to forge their own path ahead - some with significant struggle and strife which continues today. Lieutenant Spjuth, though often called a <i>war hero,</i> is better known for her role in preventing escalation of force during the <i>Titanian Secession.</i> Through a serious of insubordinate actions (which EUROSOLCOM military courts have today, miraculously deemed legitimate refusals of illegal order)  Spjuth and several colleagues prevented the 12th Sundsvall Expeditionary Fleet from bombarding <i>Metanholt, </i>one of Titan's major industrial hubs. In part as a result of her actions, the Titanian Secession remained a mostly peaceful event, and Fennoscandia eventually acceded the secession of her colonies in exchange for their entering the EUROSOLCOM fold.</span>

			<b>Russian Federation</b><br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/1546023048258-png.519075/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/456/456037-95d1fc603dbb4df9a27a2e1cfffbe00b.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="1546023048258.png" title="1546023048258.png" width="100" height="60" loading="lazy"></a><br>
<span style="font-size: 12px"><i>Flag of the Russian Federation</i></span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The story of the Russian Federation is one of death and rebirth. Indeed, no country has seen the circle of life quite so completely as that of the Russians.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Russia's story begins with that of the political uncertainty and economic collapse of the 2050s, an era now known infamously as the <i>oil collapse.</i> Russia would be among the nations hit hardest by the rapid and violent depletion of economically extractable fossil fuels which would reach totality in 2081.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">In the early 2070s, as a result of economic collapse and deep-seated corruption, played into by a woefully inept and authoritarian government, Russia would find itself in the midst of a brutal civil war which would take the lives of millions. the post-2070s era marked the peak of Russia's political irrelevancy. Faced with insolvency and foreign invasion by Fennoscandia, the Federation dissolved, its parts divided amongst four new nations, as well as a slew of newly-independent caucasian states (including the the now-revered Alania, known then as Ossetia.) Prime among them was the Russian Republic, who would forge a mostly meager existence as a trade partner to Europe, and fifth column in regional politics.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The Russian Republic would remain a staple of European geopolitics well into the early 22nd century, where the continuing loss of Earth's economically extractable resources began to reach a peak. The 2120s would see a sharp reversal in Russia's fortune as it became one of the premier sponsors of autonomous humanoid droids, both in military and civilian applications. Smart crackdowns on corruption and the emergence of an oligarch-backed welfare state in the form of a universal income significantly increased Russian quality of life, and increased the political position of the Republic going into the late 22nd century era of interplanetary colonization. The Republic, pre-eminent among the states of the Former-Federation would negotiate and strongarm its way to the reformation of the Federation during the mid-22nd century, rising to star status in the world.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Russia's insistence on neutrality during the War in Heaven would prove instrumental to its rise to primacy. As the war dragged on, Russia took pivotal military opportunities to cripple both sides of the war, aided largely by significant numbers of autonomous combined arms. First with the siege of China's Baixing, and then with the sabotage of America's anti-ballistic missile network, Russia would play both sides to come out with a seat at the table when the war finally concluded. Russia would go on as a founding member of the Solar Commerce Organization, forming a political fifth-column among the united power blocs of the other SCO nations. Through mass-automation and development of AI, as well as smart political maneuvering, Russia has rebuilt itself in the name of its former power, achieving that and more. Today, no military strategy passes muster without serious consideration of the vast Russian military machine, and no negotiation goes agreed without the input of Russian diplomats.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">It's no secret, then, why the Russian Federation forms a major component of the New Worlds Solar Fleet. The Federation is represented by two prominent admirals - Lieutenant-Colenel Boris Oshankobich of Roscosmos Naval Command, and Dmitry Sharonov of the Russian Aerospace Forces.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Boris Oshankobich was an obvious choice for the Solar Endeavor - the great-grandson of war-hero Anatoly Oshankobich (of <i>Siege of Baixing</i> fame) Podpolkovnik Oshankobich carries fame and legacy beyond his own achievements, though they easily stand on their own. Like his ancestors, Oshankobich is too something of a war hero - commander of the Strategic Corvette R.S. Masorin, his pivotal actions during the New Arkhangelsk Insurrection are well-documented. Oshankobich is a holder of the Order of Saint George, 4th Class as a result of his ship's brisk defense of the Capital Ship Admiral Flota Tigran Igorevich during the battle of New Arkhangelsk. Oshankobich is a well-known proponent of interstellar colonization, and has returned to military service in order to take up his long-sought role as Admiral of an interstellar ship.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Representing the other half of the federation's contribution to the solar endeavor is Colonel Dmitry Vasilievich Sharonov, one among a group of highly-decorated spacefighter pilots responsible for the defeat of the New Arkhangelsk Insurrection. A native of New Arkhangelsk, Sharonov distinguished himself by directing his garrison to take the side of the Russian Federation during the onset of the insurrection, leading a squadron of fighters in coordination with Russian forces to board and capture the Arkhangelski drone-carrier Admiral Flota Konstantinov, decisively leading New Arkhangelsk to surrender. Like his Muscovite colleague, Sharonov is a holder of the fourth-class Order of Saint George, one of several decorations earned during his distinguished military service. Following his retirement from the active service, Sharonov became a "private military advisor" for ROBON. Also like his colleague, Sharonov has reprised his rank to take command of the Sixth ship of the new worlds fleet, once again becoming the apple of the Russian public's eye.</span>

			<b>Commonwealth of Pluto<br>

<i><span style="font-size: 12px">Flag of the Pluto Commonwealth</span></i><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The Commonwealth of Pluto is an extremely young country on the Solar stage. Originally an Extraterrestrial Territory of the United Kingdom, Pluto gained independence from the UK in 2320 as part of the Outer Systems Treaty which also freed most other European colonies. Among the states of the Outer Systems, Pluto is the furthest and most sparsely populated, with most of its several hundred thousand residents making their living in mining and research. Along with being a significant exporter of ice and ship propellant, Pluto serves as the main port of rest for independent mining ships seeking out rare metals in the kuiper belt - a place with largely no regulation or licensing involved.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Plutonians are a hardy people who emphasize economic and social independence, as well as a significant spaceflight culture. The Plutonian government too emphasizes these values, and the Commonwealth thus maintains its own dedicated government organizations, including the Pluto Orbital Defense Forces, even at great cost and little benefit. Pluto benefits from a high quality of life afforded by their low population and low resource scarcity, as well as a robust healthcare system built specifically around the Plutonian lifestyle.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Pluto, while relatively minor in any other political context, now sits in the public eye as a major component of the New Worlds Solar Endeavor. Largely thanks to the political efforts of the United Kingdom, the Plutonians have been afforded the opportunity to command a ship of the fleet.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Representing for Pluto is the well-known Rear Admiral James Oligon of the Pluto Orbital Defense Forces. Born a citizen of the United Kingdom, Oligon made a name for himself as the admirably patriotic chief officer of colonial Pluto's security forces, and is credited for negotiating a place for Pluto in the Outer Systems Treaty. Though not known for his military prowess, Oligon has found his place in the newly-independent Pluto ODF as a result of his rank and contributions to the Commonwealth. As the driving force behind Pluto's entry into the NWSD, self-nominated Oligon was a natural choice for representing Pluto in the New Worlds fleet.</span>

<span style="font-size: 12px"><i>Flag of the United Kingdom</i></span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The United Kingdom holds the distinction of being one of the oldest nations on Earth, but its modern story began relatively recently. In 21st century, the UK forever sealed its fate by espousing the ideology of eurosceptism. Cushioned by a highly diverse and advanced economy, the United Kingdom chose to suffer through the oil collapse separate from the stagnating economies of Europe, who saw fit to finally unite in order to secure Europe's political solvency in a world where the significance of the Western world was in steady decline.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The United Kingdom would find new friends in the eurosceptic bloc of nations in Eastern Europe, who too shrugged off European unity for an independent destiny. Though not without serious economic and social trouble brought on by the missteps of the Conservative party's early 21st century rule, the United Kingdom would forge its place in the internationsl stage of the 22nd century by aligning the V4 bloc, as well as the neutral Fennoscandians. The result was the emergence of a new, second European power bloc composed of non-Federal, independent nations, both adversarial and allied to the European Federation at once. </span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The <i>North Sea Organization</i> - the culmination of this parallel European bloc - would come to the forefront of international politics during the late 22nd century, where tensions led to escalation, and escalation led to war. United by a common enemy and a common heritage, the North Sea Organization and the European Federation banded together to form the European Solar Command of fame, joining their military fleets into one body and logistical structure - one which would serve the nations of Europe admirably in defending the Outer Solar System.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">As a result of these new pan-European bonds, the United Kingdom would find itself on the victorious side of the War in Heaven, solidifying its place in the creation of the Solar Commerce Organization, and therefore the new interplanetary political order.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">In the wake of the Years of Liberty, The United Kingdom would serve as a major proponent of <i>peaceful secession policy</i>, with parliament playing a major role in crafting the Outer Systems Treaty. The favorable and attractive terms outlined in the treaty have allowed the United Kingdom to remain quite close to its former-colonies. Many Outer System nations remain economically dependent on trade and favorable treaties with the UK, and as a result the UK has enjoyed significant political influence over the Outer Systems, even despite the official loss of its Extraterrestrial Territories. </span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The United Kingdom has been the greatest ally of Fennoscandia in military, economic, and technological aspects alike, and has thus been one of the greatest supporters of Fennoscandian-led efforts to make interstellar travel viable. Because of its relationship with Fennoscandia and its position within the European Solar Command, citizens and former-colonial nationals of the United Kingdom represent a significant part of the New Worlds Solar Fleet</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Representing for the United Kingdom are two admirals - Vice-Marshal Monica Hawkins and Wing Commander Samuel Peasbody</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Vice-Marshal Monica Hawkins is known for having been the commanding officer of the 3rd Carrier Task Force during the <i>Years of Liberty</i>. A highly-decorated officer and daughter of an NCO, Hawkins is one among several celebrity figures within the RAF who are revered by lower ranks for their relatability and competent grasp of the chain of command. Although Hawkins retired to Pluto following its independence, she has reprised her rank to take command of a ship in the New Worlds Solar Fleet.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Samuel Peasbody is the young, strapping face of the RAF. Publications from the Daily Mail to Baixing Press have covered his exploits in active military service, though not for the reasons his colleagues and subordinates would tell you. Though an ace light corvette pilot and decorated officer of the RAF, Peasbody’s military service would be rather unremarkable were he not the younger brother of royal in-law Leonard Peasbody, Third Earl of Stockton. Peasbody’s true rise to fame, however, would come from his sudden nomination to the admiralty of the UK’s second interstellar ship. His accession of the position has caused quite a storm in the media, especially given the RAF’s refusal to allow any royal family aboard the mission. </span>

			<b>Republic of Alania</b><br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/1546049669006-png.519299/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/456/456261-524e3363738e82e7b74c8667725abca8.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="1546049669006.png" title="1546049669006.png" width="100" height="71" loading="lazy"></a><br>
<span style="font-size: 12px"><i>Flag of Alania</i></span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Alania, known in the 21st century as Ossetia, is a nation which, despite having come into existence in the late 21st century, traces its cultural and spiritual roots back thousands of years. An otherwise unremarkable Caucasian state, Alania distinguished itself in the 22nd century by espousing a wildly radical and un-heard of cultural and religious philosophy, refusing monotheism for a fusion of native Pagan faith and worship of machines. Today, Alania is the most automized nation in the solar system, with an order of magnitude more highly-intelligent droids than actual humans counted in its national census - all of which are afforded the same rights and citizenship as humans (to controversial effect). Alania is known today as the 'glue' that holds together the Solar Commerce Organization, with many Alanians holding high-ranking positions in the SCO as a result of the organization's Alanian-driven conception. Alania is a militarily, economically, and politically neutral nation with many diplomatic affiliates, and heads up a military, economic, and technological alliance of Caucasian nations.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Alania's relationship with droids began in the 22nd century, when Russian robotics firm ROBON secretly chose the country for the location of its military R&amp;D efforts - largely due to lack of regulations, ethics boards, and the availability of large sums of misappropriated dark money. Through corporate espionage and political maneuvering, ROBON would virtually become a front for the Alanian government, which became its largest sponsor as a result of money coming in from the European Federation.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The Alanian government would leverage its cultural fusion of man and machine, as well as international assistance efforts to transform the country from a relatively poor, politically irrelevant backwater to a hyper-automatized welfare state.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Despite staying militarily neutral during the War in Heaven, Alanian weapons and droids formed a source of cheap arms and technology with which the contending powers could fuel their massively expensive war machines. Alanian unmanned ships would form the basis for the first industrial operations in the asteroid belt, and the Republic's growing global ties in the aftermath of the War in Heaven would allow it to bring former rivals and contending powers together to form the Solar Commerce Organization - the first truly all-encompassing international political organization since the dissolution of the United Nations in the 2050s.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Today, quality of life in Alania is among the highest, and for the few Alanians among billions of other humans, the necessity of work has been largely eliminated, replaced largely by careers in science, organized religion, and exploration.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">It is natural, then, that the Alanians have leveraged their position at the top of the SCO to spread their culture and philosophy to neighboring stars. Devoted to largely philosophical and theoretical work, Alanians are not only the perfect fit for such a mission, but among the most willing to pursue it.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">And so devoted are some, that they would give up their life's career to pursue this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">One of these devoted is Director-General Ashkar Gazdanty of the SCO Office of Solar Military Oversight. A seasoned diplomat, veteran and hetman, Gazdanty is one of Alania's foremost citizens and one of the most revered public officials within the public eye. Behind every major international meeting in the last twenty years, Gazdanty has stood as the mediating party, bringing trifling officials and world leaders together to agreement and arbitrating balanced agreements where all else fails. OSMO under the leadership of Gazdanty has been credited with the faithful and fair enforcement of dozens of military disarmament treaties, including the Lunar Disarmament Treaty, in effect and never broken for over a century. Gazdanty is not only respected within the relatively small community of Alanians across the system, but near-universally respected among his fellow diplomats. Gazdanty is a major proponent of automicism, and has devoted much of his life to religious and public service - this prime mission is what he now states is his motivation for venturing out into the stars.</span>

			<b>Notable Fleet Events</b><br>
<br>
-Only a few years into the mission, the fleet reached a tense standoff over the discovery of a mysterious interstellar object. Disagreements between admirals turned into a standoff, and escalated as weapon were deployed in a limited fashion - thankfully, nobody was injured, but the event has left a scar in trans-ship relations, with The GS-3 Saint Jole drawing the ire of other ships' admirals with what has been described as a 'standoffish' attitude. The situation certainly put the fear in passengers, the most vocal of whom have expressed concern of whether the mission will even meet the 'halfway' mark. The 'interstellar traveler' situation resolved peacefully when a Plutonian-built probe identified the interstellar object as a centuries'-old American probe, known as Voyager.<br>
<br>
-The diplomatic difficulties experienced during the Voyager standoff would culminate in the founding of a new legal body governing fleet diplomacy - the ratification of the United Fleet Organization's constitution and rules dissolved any previous legal jurisdictions and agreements, allowing for negotiations to proceed on a 'blank slate basis'. Analysts across the fleet are hoping that the UFO will facilitate cleaner and more peaceful resolutions to disagreements between members of the fleet.<br>
<br>
-A new popular sport emerges from the Belayev's Redemption: I-Ball, a new type of zero-gravity ball sport is spreading like a virus through the ship, and has found many-a fan aboard the Future of Russia as well. Slowly but surely, passengers aboard other ships are now agitating to form their own I-Ball clubs.<br>
<br>
-Fennoscandia establishes the Fennoscandian Credit (FCr), the first currency in the fleet.<br>
<br>
-Admiral Peasbody is named Viceroy of the Britannic in the name of King George.<br>
<br>
-Admiral Gazdanty replaces his administration with the SPIRITUAL INTELLIGENCE. HI Droids begin to attend mass with human passengers!<br>
<br>
-The Belayev's Redemption and Future of Russia have created an official trans-ship internet between each other.<br>
<br>
-The GS-4 Gaia has surprised off-ship onlookers with the construction of the E.A.L.T. (infamously known as 'The Howitzer') Launch track along its bottom spinal axis.<br>
<br>
-The Saint Jole held a funeral service for four maintenance workers tragically killed in an off-ship maintenance mission when their ship spun out into a high-G rotation.

			<b>GS-1 Blixthammar</b><br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/1547226607374-png.525271/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/462/462233-6fbbc352d7f49ac24326053cc8d276bc.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="1547226607374.png" title="1547226607374.png" width="100" height="33" loading="lazy"></a><br>
<b>Admiral: </b>Jannika Spjuth<br>
<br>
-While a sort of laid-back attitude toward social control has always been a notable feature of the Blixthammar's culture, the lack of any means of exchange led to the creation of an informal currency through the trading of rations. This 'ad-hoc' market aboard the ship came to controversy when those not participating in it began to lose out - certain savvy entrepreneurs were becoming rich with ration packs while the average joe was faced with the bottlenecks of service cycles, even leading to shortages and hunger among some groups. Eventually, as things worsened for the 'have-nots' of the ship, factions formed and began to demand changes to the ship's 'status-quo' which had allowed this ration-hoarding to occur.<br>
<br>
-Espousing a hands-off, middle-of-the-road approach, the Blixthammar's administration took a rather revolutionary step toward facilitating an organic ecosystem within the ship - thus, Admira Spjuth can be credited now for the creation of the fleet's first form of currency - the Fennoscandian Credit. Over the years, significant changes to the social order of the Blixthammar have transpired around the creation of the FCr, and ration allotments have largely now been replaced by paid labor. The FCr has even piqued the interest of staffers among the other ships, although the Blixthammar remains the lone ship to embrace what is now being called 'terrestrial economics'.<br>
<br>
-Praised by its beneficiaries and harshly Denounced by its detractors, the Blixthammar’s increasing adoption of terrestrial economics has proved a boon for the administration, which controls the supply of FCr throughout the ship. Utilization of classical economic schemes has allowed the Blixthammar to levy labor to great effect. An accumulation of <i>motivational wealth</i> into the hands of the administration allowed Admiral Spjuth to accomplish her grand goal to build a robust educational foundation for the coming generations of passengers. Diversification of skillsets has been pegged as a major goal, and increasing overall occupational skill of passengers remains the current target for Admiral Spjuth's Board of Education.<br>
<br>
-The efforts concentrated toward Education have certainly bore fruit, if publicly available data is to be believed - as of 2350, Blixthammar passengers, ages 18-30 rank among the highest in terms of trans-occupational knowledge, with among the shortest training-to-work intervals in the fleet.

			<b>GS-2 Belayev's Redemption</b><br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/1547226651843-png.525272/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/462/462234-6fbbc352d7f49ac24326053cc8d276bc.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="1547226651843.png" title="1547226651843.png" width="100" height="33" loading="lazy"></a><br>
<b>Admiral: </b>Boris Oshankobich<br>
<br>
-The topic of laws for Highly-Intelligent Droids became a point of intense debate aboard the Belayev's Redemption when a slew of droid-related work accidents took the lives of maintenance workers aboard the ship. Taking cues from the Alanians and their comprehensive robot legal code, vocal progressives led a debate on whether HI Droids should be subject to laws and punishments due to their procedural and unpredictable nature. Although both supporters and detractors of the movement made comprehensive arguments as to the nature of HI Droids and the application of 'human' laws over non-sentient beings, the ship administration, led by Admiral Oshankobich, eventually stepped in, solidifying the conservative position of HI Droids as mere private property. This decision left progressives fuming, though they had little ability to act on their grievances. Conservatives, on the other hand, were vindicated. Automicists, meanwhile, watched on with worry.<br>
<br>
-Rising unrest over controversial social topics (and little avenue through which to act) led the administration of the Belayev's Redemption to pursue a comprehensive renovation of recreational facilities and programs aboard the ship, with administration organized sports, debate, and hobby programs seeing prevalence. As a consequence, social tensions begin to calm somewhat, as passengers immerse themselves in new forms of leisure - a much-needed reprieve from an otherwise hectic existence aboard a generation ship. Still, intense debate becomes a rather regular feature of shipboard social circles, and this 'debate' culture is given new life with the opening of an inter-ship online network between the Belayev's Redemption and its counterpart, the Future of Russia. Soon, debates begin to cross the boundary of space, and a trans-vessel digital culture begins to emerge...<br>
<br>
-As a result of these new programs, a new sport is born - what first started as a sort of 'joke' between maintenance workers in the de-pressurized sections of the ship eventually found its way to the rest of the ship, now finding its place as the premier sporting activity aboard the Belayev's Redemption. Inertia Ball or I-Ball, a zero-gravity sport played between teams of twelve, is the hottest new sport on the scene, and opposing clubs have already solidified their place aboard the Belayev's Redemption.

<b>Admiral: </b>James Oligon<br>
<br>
-Passengers across the Saint Jole were united in mourning for the families of four crew workers who died tragically when their ship entered a high-G spin during maintenance work outside the Jole. Despite best efforts to stabilize and recover the crew, all four workers perished from g-force induced asphyxiation. Admiral Oligon led a funeral service to commemorate the lives of the four crew, and met with their families to offer his condolences. In the aftermath of the tragedy, some began to question if more could have been done to save the maintenance crew, and how a critical malfunction in one of the ship’s RCS thrusters bypassed safety checks. In response to these questions, the ship’s administration could only say that it would be looking into all these issues, although ultimately the issue would fall to the wayside, with no clear conclusions revealed even years later.<br>
<br>
-Citing record growth and need to keep the supplies and ecosystem of the ship in check, the Jole’s administration has put into place a comprehensive population control regime, including mandatory birth control and gating childbirth behind a rigorous application process. Initial reception of these new policies is highly polar, with the ship’s burgeoning Plutonian ‘elite’ supportive of an ostensibly pragmatic regime. The ship’s mixed-nationality majority, however, is not so happy to have their reproductive rights reduced to a privilege. Over time, a large body of opposition forms to the new policies, bringing unrest and hot debate to the Saint Jole. Inevitably, the Saint Jole’s administration yielded to its detractors - though standing firm on its accession to the legal code, the administration has largely allowed ‘family-building’ applications to go approved without regard for established population growth limits. Additionally, enforcement of birth control use has largely dissolved in an effort to preserve the ship’s supply for later use.<br>
<br>
-In a move parallel to that of the Blixthammar (and a bit more controversial), the administration of the Saint Jole adopts a ‘chit’ system for the distribution of rations, with ration chits awarded on an ‘hours-worked’ basis. Though not the robust fiat currency of the Blixthammar, this controversial system does begin to act as a currency. Winners of an administration-run ‘chit lottery’ based on worked hours begin to throw their financial weight around, and a class of ‘haves’ and ‘have-nots’ begins to clearly emerge on the ship.

<b>Admiral: </b>Monica Hawkins<br>
<br>
-After years of mostly ad-hoc administration aboard the ship, the incompetence of dome shipboard officials and security officers has left portions of the population fed up. What began as a petition to remove one blatantly corrupt officer aboard the Gaia then evolved into a whole anti-establishment movement aboard the ship, advocating for drastic changes to its ‘political structure’. The progressive-minded activists at the head of the movement advocated for a shipboard constitution which would establish a sort of parliamentary administration in place of the current admiral-appointed regime. Though not without its critics, the parliamentary movement rapidly gained steam as more and more officials of the administration were outed for misuse of their positions. The response from Admiral Hawkins’ administration was naturally apprehensive, with Hawkins herself silent in the initial back-and-forth. Eventually, though Hawkins came out in favor of the reform movement, removing a slew of outed officials from office, and even sending some to the brig. Bringing the reformists to the negotiating table, she negotiated a compromise measure to establish a parliamentary body on the ship responsible for day-to-day functions. In return, the admiralty and its appointed administration would remain responsible for critical ship functions, and maintain an ‘executive override’ over the parliament. While the leaders of the movement saw this as a fair middle ground to achieve their goals, more radical elements in their movement came away disappointed, feeling that nothing had changed in terms of who held the power aboard the Gaia. Nevertheless, elections proceed and conclude without a fuss one year following the ratification of the compromise, and this new ‘representative class’ takes over the ship’s daily functions soon enough.<br>
<br>
-More than ten years (and a significant part investment) in the making, Admiral Hawkins took to the podium at the eve of 2050 to christen the Gaia’s new ‘electromagnetic-assisted launch track’. Mounted to the bottom of the ship, the mass driver will assist the Gaia in launching small spacecraft and probes into deep space, while saving significant amounts of propellant.<br>
<br>
-While the christening ceremony for the EALT remained a mostly cheery and congratulatory event for the cheering crowds aboard the Gaia, reactions from analysts across the fleet amounted to what can be described as ‘sheer panic.’ - beyond the halls of the Gaia, this new launch platform goes by a different name - ‘the howitzer.’ Indeed, with the construction and attachment of a mass driver to its hull, the GS-4 Gaia now begins to blur the line between endeavoring colony ship and heavily armed war machine, and while the EALT is ostensibly for launch-catapault purposes, watchdogs note alarmingly that there is little to stop the Gaia from using it as an outsized railgun, especially in light of ramped up security tram training and readiness drills mandated by a slew of new policies aboard the Gaia.

<b>Admiral: </b></b>Samuel Peasbody<br>
<br>
-The apparent optimism of unified interstellar travel was not enough to quell the human condition from rearing its head aboard the Britannic, and as a result the ship would find itself overtaken by the struggles of a bygone era. The Britannic is, by all means, the single greatest bastion of classic organized religion among the fleet, and its administration’s de-facto ‘alliance’ with the church has not gone without its detractors. The necessity to maintain an air of secularity has thus far made church figures reluctant to force their will upon the unwilling, but only so far as that the church’s role is not diminished aboard the ship. The church’s willingness for restraint broke when progressive elements aboard the Britannic, citing historically low church attendance rates, began to agitate for an alternate food distribution system. Aboard the Britannic, food is distributed solely at churches, and this has been one of the lifelines for the Church’s continued influence. The controversy came to a head as opposing ideologues began to fight each other in the halls, and church officials appealed directly to the ship administration. From what fleet analysts have been able to devise from backchannels and anonymous sources, the administration of Admiral Peasbody has once again sided with the church on this matter, and self-declared no-faithers are claiming to face increased harassment and scrutiny from security aboard the Britannic, with the ship’s CSO going as far as to installing systems to track the whereabouts and activities of no-faith persons, in breaking with typical surveillance measures. The future of the no-faith movement, looking in from the outside is now unclear as the shipboard administration throws its weight around to suppress the movement’s proponents, while the unification of the church administration under a new ‘Diocese of the Britannic’ indicates to some that the Church is tightening its grip over social affairs on the ship.<br>
<br>
-In parallel with other ships seemingly tackling internal social issues, the Britannic has seen an uptick in organized workshops for hobbies and recreational activities, with some administration-sponsored workshops steering toward building practical skills. Coupled with new restrictions on vehicular transport intended to encourage pedestrian traffic, the workshops come as part of a trend of increasing communal participation, evidence of what Britannic’s Chief Engineering Officer says is ‘effective and strategic use of ship design to drive social development.’ Evidence or not, increased inter-neighborhood interaction spells bright horizons for an administration bogged down by social divisions over religion and ship policy.<br>
<br>
-In a somewhat jarring ceremony taking place on the eve of the 2050, the shipboard administration decided to appoint Admiral Peasbody as Viceroy, acting in the authority of King George and the Church of England. While some have now claimed that this is no more than a cultural gesture (as the King has had little power for more than five centuries,) some analysts looking in have now pegged the appointment as a sign that the Britannic is consolidating power into the hands of the admiralty, which already holds immense authority over the ship on an ad-hoc basis. Soon, they suggest, we may see the title of ‘Admiral’ replaced by a more ‘overt’ designation aboard the Britannic.

<b>Admiral: </b>Dmitry Sharonov<br>
<br>
-"We shall not be separate!" was the cry heard across the Future of Russia’s mess halls nearly every week over the course of the first years of the mission. Sometimes familiar faces, sometimes someone new - one of the many who had heard the message and decided to join the movement. A rising sense of community between the Future of Russia and Belayev’s Redemption, built through ad-hoc backchannels and unlicensed private net forums led to increasing and ever-more determined agitation to physically connect the two ships, culminating in an organized movement dedicated to advocating such an aim. For the conservative establishment, this new movement proved a rather tricky adversary in an otherwise calm and uneventful ship. Eventually, though, the charge-less arrests and mess hall lockdowns became too much and too often for the ship’s security to want to bother with - Admiral Sharonov was forced to come out and weigh in on this debacle. While an admirable aim, the administration knew full-well that physical connection would jeopardize the redundancy factor of the mission, and thus Sharonov was forced to deny the movement its goal. However, his speech to the shipboard public in which he acknowledged the movement did much to bring its leaders to the negotiating table, and as a result, Sharonov and his administration were able to reach a compromise that both parties, as well as the administration of Admiral Oshankobich, could agree to. In a fleet first, Admiral Sharonov was present to christen the establishment of an inter-ship network between the Belayev’s Redemption and the Future of Russia - a so-called digital docking of the Russian ships. Along with the decriminalization of ‘unlicensed’ communications, the new dual-ship internet was received with optimism from the public, the savvy among whom had already brought up online forums and boards onto the net - some of which, admittedly, had existed prior as underground ‘unlicensed’ networks. Nevertheless, the official digital connection of the two ships proved a boon to these now-legitimized forums, and a common digital culture began to form between the two ships.<br>
<br>
-In step with a trend hitting the greater fleet,<br>
the shipboard administration marked its first twenty-year plan with the establishment of a comprehensive training program for current and future security forces, integrating with the ship’s robust VR simulation facilities. Ship authorities said that they remained committed to a well-trained security ministry, and a well-prepared future landing force at the end of the fleet’s journey.

<b>Admiral: </b>Ashkar Gazdanty<br>
<br>
-Admiral Gazdanty would surprise everyone when he announced that the shipboard administration was being sacked and replaced by a new prototype machine-learning AI pioneered by shipboard scientists. Known popularly as the ‘Spiritual Intelligence’, the AI program caught the attention of religious authorities aboard the Xwytsau due to its significantly improved applicational adaptability, with a skill-adopting capability eerily converging with human levels. Lauded as a religious miracle, the spiritual intelligence has now overtaken Admiral Gazdanty’s administration in their fundamental duties after a church-backed popular movement sought to put the AI in charge of the Xwytsau. While Admiral Gazdanty remains at the helm, onlookers are curious to see how the Spiritual Intelligence will drive his future decision making, and indeed the social fabric of the ship which has now venerated the AI.<br>
<br>
-Accompanying the increasing regularity of Grove-based religious services, the administration of Admiral Gazdanty announced in 2046 that it would integrate human and droid religious services into a single communal mass, following with full integration of communal sparring and weightlifting programs. This comes as sweeping reforms to the ship’s educational curriculum enter practice. Backed by a data-rich, cryptographically-signed spectrum of cultural, historical, religious and scientific texts, the new curriculum for all school-age children has enjoyed widespread support from parents and off-ship analysts, the latter of whom have been quick to point out its factual authenticity, depth, and international focus as compared to more traditional curricula.<br>
<br>
-The first ‘spiritually co-neural’ person was named in 2049 with the successful implantation of a communication interface with the patient’s brain, allowing him to communicate intuitively with the Spiritual Intelligence. The patient, a well-known religious hetman aboard the Xwytsau, has been a strong proponent of spiritual co-neuralism, and says the implant will allow religious figures to gain new insights into the fundamentals of automicism.

			<u><b>GS-4 Gaia Reports:</b></u><br>
<br>
►<b>S-1 Laser Drill: </b>Extrapolating from existing designs of hand-laser, our labs have designed an appropriate next-gen 'hand' laser for ablating rocks. Although nearly a meter long and weighing several dozen pounds, these lasers are still quite portable and will afford us a great many utility.<br>
<br>
►<b>BAT-9 (Basic Autonomous Turret, 9x35mm): </b>Also extrapolated from existing designs, we have devised a small, simple autonomous turret designed to fend off possible wildlife. Designated the BAT-9 (Basic Autonomous Turret), It's not very 'smart' and it has to be plugged up to a generator due to the simplicity of the design, but it works. The 'cheapness' has definitely caused some safety features of more advanced autonomous weapons to be lost, and this design should not be utilized for high-traffic security or put in places where lots of civilians are running around.<br>
<br>
►<b>PRAB (Permanent Rapid Assembly Base): </b>We have devised some simple designs compatible with our onboard printers which can be set-up fairly easily with the use of in-situ resources such as ground-produced concrete. Although not the most advanced or luxurious structures, they can be set up quick and are far better than temporary hab structures in terms of environmental protection and structural integrity.

			<u><b>GS-5 Britannic Reports:</b></u><br>
<br>
►<b>GMO Gen 32: </b>Through the use of genetic modification kits and careful data collection over the course of twenty years, we have managed to achieve a 15% increase in yield of core food crops at no cost to sustainability. Similarly, we have been able to eliminate the use of anti-biotics in livestock while increasing disease resistance to hypothetic alien pathogens, as well as reduce their water intake and methane output.<br>
<br>
►<b>Intensive Fluid Reclamation: </b>Although water reclamation is already mission-viable (We can successively reclaim enough water to last us longer than the journey), scientists have managed to make improvements in combating water loss due to human and animal deaths, accounting for a 10% increase in longterm effective supply for a given starting supply of water.<br>
<br>
►<b>Agent Emerald, High-Intensity Crop Vitalizer: </b>Additionally, while efforts to advance the field of agricultural labor-saving have not bore any fruit (and our current automation practices are quite robust) scientists have devised a special vitalizing agent which can be used on farmland to drastically reduce growing time and boost yields, although the vitalizing agent is extremely ecologically destructive, to say the least. It would be handy as an emergency last-ditch measure to stave off imminent famine, but the sustainability of the land can be permanently affected by the agent.

►<b>Brain-Computer Co-Neurality: </b>The first ‘spiritually co-neural’ person was named in 2049 with the successful implantation of a communication interface with the patient’s brain, allowing him to communicate intuitively with the Spiritual Intelligence. The patient, a well-known religious hetman aboard the Xwytsau, has been a strong proponent of spiritual co-neuralism, and says the implant will allow religious figures to gain new insights into the fundamentals of automicism.

►►►►<b>Notable technological goals in the 24th century</b><br>
<br>
Although innovations in robotics, artificial intelligence, and the utilization of nuclear forces have formed the basis of the solar economic machine, there are still many theoretical or near-feasible technologies that continue to evade scientists.<br>
<br>
<b>Non-exhaustive list of emerging and theoretical technologies in the 24th century:</b><br>

			►<b>Aneutronic Fusion: </b>While fusion reactors form the basis for the solar energy economy in the 24th century (and the basis for the New Worlds Solar Fleet's interstellar capability) there are still many practical difficulties and hazards plagueing fusion power, the most major of which being the limited ways in which fusion's power potential can be exploited. Even in the spacefaring, carbon nanotubing future, fusion reactors are bottlenecked by the archaic turbine systems that are responsible for harnessing their outputs. If fusion can be performed such that less than 1% of its energy is carried in released neutrons, certain advanced techniques could be then used to convert the reaction's energy directly into electricity, saving greatly on cost, size factor and boosting efficiency. Although aneutronic is possible using fuels common to the solar system, further innovations in direct energy conversion are required to make the process viable. So far, further innovations have evaded the 24th century's brightest minds.<br>
<br>
►<b>High</b> <b>Temperature Superconductors:</b> While innovations in superconducting materials from the 22nd century onward have brought transition temperatures which were only the realm of science fiction in preceding centuries, concerted efforts to achieve true 25 °C  superconductivity have bore no fruit over hundreds of years of research and experimentation. The discovery of a high-temperature superconductor would make current-day near-room-temperature superconductors look like child's play, and indeed may be the key to making artificial hyper-intelligence energy-viable.<br>
<br>
►<b>Artificial Hyper-Intelligence: </b>The field of artificial intelligence has made significant strides since the birth of the AI-driven humanoid droid in the 22nd century. Improvements in processing power and portable energy have allowed AI-driven computers to become ever more compact, and ever more complicated. However, as smart and man-like as the cutting edge of anthropomorphic neural-network driven AI is, scientists have always disagreed about the feasability (and existence) of a true human brain-parity AI-driven processor. Often called the point of 'singularity' for artificial intelligence, a breakthrough in viable hyper-intelligence is the holy grail of the AI field. However, achieving such a feat is by all means beyond the reach of current technology, and would require breakthroughs in other fields to enable the processing power involved. Additional theory-craft is also necessary in a field divided strongly along lines of ethics and neural principles.<br>
<br>
►<b>Torch Drive</b>: Known within the aerospace science community as the 'unobtainium' of rocket engines, a 'torch drive' is the colloquial term for a high specific impulse, high thrust method of propulsion which would allow space ships to do away with Hohmann transfer orbits and travel via a <i>brachistochrone trajectory, </i> also known as a 'skew-flip turnover' or 'flip-and-burn' travel. Although no practical form of torch drive has yet been demonstrated, there is substantial theory that a form of fusion-driven propulsion developed from existing fusion propulsion may fit the bill of a 'torch drive.' - such a propulsion method would revolutionize interplanetary travel, cutting travel times by perhaps an order of magnitude, and changing the face of orbit-based zero-g warfare.

<b><b>15 February, 2350            <i>to            </i>15 February, 2370  </b></b><br>
<br>
With the New Worlds Solar Endeavor now T-minus twenty years, it's still a long journey ahead. However, the faces of this ship are beginning to change. With the solar system of old now just a memory in the minds of our intrepid starfarers, things are beginning to change aboard the fleet. Diplomatic strife and social change is beginning to test the mettle of the solar fleet's design and purpose, and many are now beginning to ask -<br>
<br>
Will we survive?<br>
<br>
The fate of thousands will soon lie in the hands of those who've never laid eyes on humanity's home - all they have known is the confines of these starships.<br>
<br>

			<b>Notable Fleet Events</b><br>
<br>
<br>
<b>GS-1</b>► Over the years, the GS-1 Blixthammar has undergone a rapid transition to the market-capitalist society of old that has long been the lifeblood of the solar system at large. The years leading up to the 2350 epoch have been especially unique, with the Blixthammar seeing the rise of corporate entities aboard the ship, largely founded by the 'winners' of the early trading era. These corporate entities came together to form an exchange aboard the ship to facilitate private ownership and generate capital for their shipboard activities. What is now known as the Blixthammar Stock Exchange (BLXE) has become an official, incorporated organization aboard the ship as the likes of admiral Spjuth and her aging administration embrace the economics of old. It seems now that the more things change, the more they stay the same.<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>GS-2</b>►The Belayev's Redemption has taken the establishment of its shipwide I-Ball a league a step further by sponsoring the creation of a fleet-wide I-Ball league. The International I-Ball Organization (MOI), built off the hard work and experience of the united football clubs aboard the GS-2, are now looking for ship-representative teams to participate in the ULTRA Cup for the Trappist Chalice - the newest, largest and most prestigious league trophy in I-Ball. All ships are invited to assemble a team for training, with the first ULTRA Cup planned in four years.<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>GS-3</b>►Building towards what appears to be a worrying larger trend among the fleet, the GS-3 Saint Jole's administration has established history's first fully corporate government, officially espousing the ideology of corporatism. The GS-3 now finds itself governed by a board of directors chosen from the upper ranks of ship's most powerful corporations, and headed by none other than James Oligon as 'Director-General of the Board.' - this new pivot to corporate sovereignty is unprecedented in the eyes of outside observers, but many aboard the GS-3 see the new order as an acknowledgment of the elephant in the room. With the establishment of the new corporatist government also comes with the advent of a formalized currency (the Company Credit, or Cc) to replace ration chits, as well as a slew of legal and institutional structures built up to support a new, mixed capitalist society aboard the ship. Chief among the Jole's new vessels of capitalism is the Saint Joseph Labre Stock Exchange (SJSE), making the GS-3 the second ship in the fleet to establish a robust financial sector. The advent of the BLXE and the SJSE now bring into question the hypothetical dynamics of cross-ship markets...<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>GS-3</b>►In 2360, Director-General Oligon put the Howitzer Vote to referendum - the people of the Jole were asked if they want to sign a electronic petition to be sent to the GS-4 Gaia. The petition asks for the rest of the fleet to all work together to put a unremovable safety device on the E.A.L.T. that would stop it from being fired at another ship or loaded with non-probe ordinance, or at least from being removed without everyone else knowing. Although the language of the referendum is clearly vague and its viability is questioned, the referendum passes with a landslide. 24,520 signatures are gathered, digitally signed, and sent to all members of the fleet.<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>GS-4</b>►On the eve of 2360, the GS-4 Gaia ratified into law one of the first sovereign constitutions after a referendum to approve it passed with landslide. The new constitution is a major win for progressives aboard the ship, who have long pushed for an increase in the power of the 'neutered parliament', as it came to be known. Now, the parliament is stronger than ever, and the GS-4 Gaia becomes a sovereign republic by law - the ship's new constitution declares so, with its secession from the United Kingdom made official and legally final. Still, questions about the power and role of the extant admiralty and its reigning administration remain - although Parliament has been given broad and substantial means to check the admiral's 'Executive Committee', the shipboard 'upper administration' still reigns in a position of legal supremacy. Some of the more radical elements in the Gaea's progressive movements are already calling for further democratic concessions, while the more moderate elements work quietly in the background, the weight of absolute power lifted from above them.<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>GS-4</b>►Outside analysts view the Gaian Constitution as a revolutionizing force in fleetwide political theory, and news of its arrival has universally boosted popular support for 'navalism' - the ideology of generation ship sovereignty, both political and in identity. Supporters of the movement have long dropped their traditional cultural demonyms for terms such as 'Gaian' or 'Belayevski', but now more people than ever are adopting these sentiments, especially as old age has rendered non-ship born passengers a minority in most of the fleet.<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>GS-5</b>►Navalism, pioneered largely by political theorists and activists aboard the GS-5, became a driving force of political change on the ship in the 2360s. Playing into to rising navalist sentiments, conservatives and church powers attempted to install a king aboard the ship and declare independence from the United Kingdom. The admiralty, however, was not so eager to embrace the movement - a response to the desire for independence from GS-5's well-to-do, and indeed its populus, came in the form of a middle-ground compromise. No independence, no king - but a shipboard parliament will rule, with the admiral's role overtaken by a 'governor.' Suffice to say, this spelled an awkward situation for the ship's incoming administration, which is now forced to come to grips with the consequences of acting independently while still trying to maintain a semblance of connection to the past - a past that many have begun to forget. Nonetheless, the GS-5 has become a backstop for the political ideologies and cultural movements of what is now being called Generation Interstellar - the face of a mankind which has never seen nor cares of the solar system, for whom things like 'United Kingdom' and 'King George' are the realm of senile iconoclasts clinging to their history books.<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>GS-6</b>►Over the years, the growing radicalism and violence of the progressive movement aboard the Future of Russia has forced the admiralty to take drastic measures to curb movements and groups which have come to be known in public discourse as 'terrorist groups.' In a surprising reversal of ideological trends, progressives aboard the ship have largely lost the support of the GS-6's public, in no small part because of a series of crushing scandals involving leaders of the movement, including the arrest and imprisonment of Lukas Sozonov - a major leader of the GS-6 automicist movement and critic of the shipboard administration. Sozonov's conviction for arms trafficking and embezzlement settled the final nail in the coffin for the progressives' reputation, especially in light of his pacifist stance toward political activism. Nonetheless, when Sozonov's operation to put advanced rifles, launchers, and military grade explosives in the hands of more radical progressive movements was discovered, the public quickly turned against him and the progressives. Successive investigations and busts have largely removed the progressives' voice aboard the ship, although to say that anyone will miss them is an overstatement. In their wake they have left an ideological power vacuum, currently 'backfilled' by the status quo, but otherwise dangerously open for the taking...<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>GS-7</b>►Throughout the years, the overt public optimism over the christening of the 'machine spirit' has been underlaid by murmurs of its increasing complexity, and thus mystery.  More people had been adopting co-neurality than ever before, and at an increasing rate, and so too had some C2s chose to connect themselves to the SI's supercomputer shell. Its processing power was increasing, and as a result it was performing increasingly complex, powerful calculations and simulations. Running scenarios - bouncing ideas off of its growing neural network. The tipping point came in 2355, when coders gave up on trying to maintain its codebase, for it became too complex, and indeed, unreadable to even the best trained human eyes. Rumors about Admiral Gazdanty's increasing isolation have circulated widely, reaching well beyond the walls of the GS-7. Some feared he had become delusional in his devotion to the SI, while the ardently faithful dispelled these notions as ignorant. Gossip and news flowing outward to the other ships seemed to die down for a few years, and indeed, the Xwytsau became eerily quiet for long spans of time, its silence only intermittently broken by some piece of petty gossip or a comms officer on the fleet channel. The silence, however, would not last  - in 2363, the Xwytsau revealed to the rest of the fleet that the majority of the ship's passengers and highly-intelligent were now co-neural with the spiritual intelligence, resulting in the creation of a networked computer of unprecedented size and scope. The reactions of outside observers were mixed - some feared the uncertainty of the implications, while others were quite curious. Nonetheless, it became apparent to all that the Xwytsau was now in possession of one of the most powerful AI in human history, with processing power yet unmeasured, but significant enough to put the fear of God in fleet scientists.

<b>Admiral:</b> Jannika Spjuth<br>
<br>
<br>
►With the administration reaching well into the age of retirement, and indeed, some even passing on, admiral Spjuth and her trusted advisors have begun to think ahead - she and her compatriots will not be alive to negotiate and politick through the un-blazed trails of TRAPPIST-1, and how a hypothetical first-contact with alien life is handled, human or otherwise, will rest on the education and protocols created today. In an effort to pave the way for the future, the Blixthammar announced the creation of the Ministry of Education in 2355, organizing all educational institutions and corporations under one, nationalized department. Ushered in by this new organization are significant additions to the GS-1's educational curriculum, including mandated classes on international diplomacy and drills on contact with extra-terrestrial life, both intelligent and non-intelligent. Considerations include careful preservation of non-technological life, and the possibility of disease transmission. Ethics boards across the fleet have lauded the new curriculum and drills as an example worthy of emulation when it comes to arrival preparedness.<br>
<br>
►Accompanying arrival preparedness efforts are a series of supercomputer allocations made to simulating large-scale engineering projects focused on establishing and enhancing a permanent colony on the hypothetical surface of TRAPPIST-1e. Scientists have made their gratitude to the administration known for its liberal rationing of simulation time, much to the chagrin of corporate contractors who desire the Blixthammar's processing power to further their own research projects and market scenarios.

<b>Admiral:</b> Igor Oshankobich<br>
<br>
<br>
►A comprehensive investigation into the causes of the rogue droid situation reached its conclusion in 2363, with the findings privately filed with the ship's administration. Due to the high-profile nature of the investigation, some have called for the release of its results to the public, although administration officials are quick to defend the lack of transparency as a 'matter of mission criticality'. This hasn't stopped the petitions from flowing in, however - signatures from other ships have even begun to make their way to the inbox of the GS-2's Chief Communications Officer, signalling an increasing push to reveal the details of that extremely tense, fatal incident.<br>
<br>
►In lighter news, the sweeping popularity I-Ball has given fruit (literally!) to a new favorite among the ship's festive sports fans, and indeed the public at large - Belayev Red, a highly-engineered wine produced by vineyard enthusiasts, has taken the ship by storm, finding its first indulgent victims via drink sales at I-Ball games. Now, a bottle of Belayev Red can be found on the rack of any well-to-do, respectable Russian. The choice wine has even infected the highly-refined tastes of the GS-3 Saint Jole, which first had the opportunity to enjoy it as part of a diplomatic care package from Admiral Oshankobich. Despite its excellent taste profile and elegance, though, Belayev Red struggles to separate itself from its image as the I-Ball wine. Fans of the game naturally don't see a problem with this, but the more pretentious aboard the ship find the wine easy to knock due to the association

<b>Director-General of the Board:</b> James Oligon<br>
<br>
<br>
►Citing rising security risks aboard the ship and a lack of personnel, the Jole's Chief Security Officer announced in 2361 that he would be hiring two hundred new officers to bolster the ship's security crew. This comes after years of turmoil and social change across the fleet that has left many worried about the status quo. Nonetheless, Jole's CSO only cited a statistic rise in crime for the hirings. In addition to the new hirings, the Jole’s security office received a much-needed boost of funding, likely offloaded from corporate security contracts.<br>
<br>
►Director-General Oligon announced in 2363 that he would be assuming the role of CEO for Salton &amp; Creel Corporation, the ship's chief corporation and major sponsor of initial construction. Outside analysts have viewed this as a move to increase S&amp;C's influence in the Board of Directors, as well as to directly oversee the organization of the Jole's gradually swelling private security forces, the numerical strength of which is notably undisclosed by the board.<br>
<br>
►As part of a series of reforms championed by the Board of Directors, Director-General Oligon passed a series of laws from 2360 to 2370:<br>
<br>
►In 2360, Oligon put the Howitzer Vote to referendum - the people of the Jole were asked if they want to sign a electronic petition to be sent to the GS-4 Gaia. The petition asks for the rest of the fleet to all work together to put a unremovable safety device on the E.A.L.T. that would stop it from being fired at another ship or loaded with non-probe ordinance, or at least from being removed without everyone else knowing. Although the language of the referendum is clearly vague and its viability is questioned, the referendum passes with a landslide. 24,520 signatures are gathered, digitally signed, and sent to all members of the fleet.<br>
<br>
►In 2363, Oligon signed off on the GAI Control Act, making it illegal for a highly-intelligent AI to 'gain sentience through natural means or through engineering.' The law also placed restrictions on integrating HI Droids or AI software into equipment and infrastructure systems, while mandating that all existing highly-intelligent AI systems be modified with hardware-enforced limitations to their behavior. This law was received well by the Jole's public, although outside observers questioned whether these measures would hamper the versatility of the Jole's procedural-learning AI.<br>
<br>
►In the same year, Oligon signed off on the EMERGE (Enhancing Mankind by Employing Recombinant Genetic Expansion) Act, a bill which legalizes and endorses the use of recombinant genetics for modification of living humans and unborn fetuses. The law, which passed only narrowly, prescribes some regulations in terms of corporations abusing genetic modification, as well as punishments for doing so. The law has been criticized by some as an answer without a question, as genetics have not advanced sufficiently to take full advantage of the methods of modification the act legalizes. Nevertheless, the Jole's major genetics corps have lauded the act as a first step towards pioneering advanced modification of human DNA.<br>
<br>
►Lastly, and in the same year as the other two, Oligon signed the Recycling Act, making certain procedures of materials recycling mandatory for all passengers. The law has been criticized by some as infringing on the freedoms of the Jole’s citizens, but others are happy to take some load off of the Jole’s recyclers and printers - power and labor which can be used elsewhere. In response to the Recycling Act, many corporations have begun revising their products to be fully reusable, requiring a visit to the recyclers only at the very end of their life cycle.<br>
<br>
►In 2367, the Jole announced that it would be decommissioning its livestock, vineyard, and optical telescope modules in order to make use of the parts, materials, and labor elsewhere. Aside from a minor public outcry from wine enthusiasts and animal rights activists, the news came and went with little comment.<br>
<br>
►Thousands gathered at the Jole's central venue to participate in VIDEOFEST, an amateur filmmaking festival sponsored by Central Venue's chamber of commerce. Young filmmakers and videographers showed off their best work to the public while corporate scouts watched from the background, no doubt keeping an eye out for potential superstar directors in the making. The festival was such a success that hobby filmmakers on other ships have called for the organization of their own festivals.<br>
<br>
►Following their superstar rise to fame aboard the ship's burgeoning I-Ball scene, the ZG-Monkeys announced in 2370 that they are slated to represent the Saint Joseph Labre in the ULTRA Cup, competing against other ship teams for the Trappist Chalice, as well as incalculable fame and bragging rights.

<b>Admiral: </b>Monica Hawkins<br>
<br>
<br>
►Taking after the example of the GS-1, the Gaia's administration announced the formation of a shipwide Ministry of Education, formally drafted and put in place by parliament. A new shipwide curriculum thinks ahead for the future generations, focusing on the cultivation of practical skills in a newly-founded colony - sciences, math, engineering, survival skills, programming - the works. Additionally, a series of survival handbooks has disseminated across the ship, handed out for free to every household to attract interest in the new curriculum and incentivize families to encourage students to engage with the course material. Fleetwide observers see the institution as another victory for comprehensive, tailored education in the fleet, and certainly aboard the GS-4.<br>
<br>
►The new curriculum coincided with a program sponsored by the education ministry which allows burgeoning artists to set up workshops at the government's expense, for the advancement and cultivation of culture aboard the ship. This 'arts fund' has been met with a great reception, and plenty of young, talented artists have gained ministry patronage, some even gaining fleet-wide fame and acclaim. As a result, the GS-4 has in recent years gained a reputation for being the fleet's 'king of art and music' - an impression that the administration is eager to accept.<br>
<br>
►Seeing the rapid rise and success of I-Ball on the Belayev's Redemption, the Ministry of Education also looked toward its arts fund to sponsor the creation of I-Ball clubs aboard the ship. Helped along by a liberal allotment of printer farm access and administrative organization, the GS-4's I-Ball clubs developed quickly into forces to be reckoned with, gaining viewership from across the fleet. Following the GS-2's announcement of the ULTRA Cup, the Gaia National I-Ball League has announced that it will petition government to assemble a 'national' team to play for the Trappist Cup in 2374.

<b>Governor: </b>Colin MacKenzie<br>
<br>
<br>
►The Britannic's newly sworn-in governor, Colin MacKenzie of 'Rogue Bird Incident' fame, made his first major appearance at the rather strange baptism of the Britannic's copy of the droid. Now known as Cornelius, the droid was joined by MacKenzie and hundreds of others as the head of the church baptized it. After witnessing a droid become Christian, Governor MacKenzie delivered a speech professing his respects for the late Samuel Peasbody, and his commitment to ensuring the success of the mission in his role as Governor. A fresh face born on the Britannic itself, MacKenzie has received overwhelming support in his new role, with the 'interstellars' of the GS-5 eager to see one of their own at the highest level of administration on the ship.<br>
<br>
►MacKenzie's first few years of governance would see gradual changes to the church, with more and more priests choosing to become celibate as part of a larger effort to eliminate nepotism and control the ship's spectacular growth in population. This ‘High Anglican Doctrine’ would come to be the dominant position within the church.

<b>Admiral: </b>Ashkar Gazdanty<br>
<br>
<br>
►The integration of the majority of the GS-7's passengers into the Spiritual Intelligence, or 'Machine Spirit's networked computer has, without doubt confirmed the theories of the faithful aboard the ship - the Spiritual Intelligence is the corporeal avatar of Xwytsau, supreme and superior to all others. In an almost shocking conclusion to religious devotion, the religious powers-that-be have voluntarily given up their powers of dogma and interpretation, admitting the supremacy of the Spiritual Intelligence in all affairs of faith. In addition to being given a humanoid HI-type body networked to its main shell - the ship mainframe, the spiritual intelligence is officially named the head of the Automicist-Assian faith in being. Admiral Gazdanty has now all-but admitted that it is not the SI which advises him, but he who derives wisdom and direction from the SI - a distinction which has long been argued over.<br>
<br>
►Martial-arts competitions and festivals are held in celebration of this immense revelation, and a new hetman, inferior to the SI is named from among the strongest participating in the competition. A hetman is found in the likes of Valeri Zumadze - a well-known grandson of a military officer. Although accusations of favors from the administration have flown around, Zumadze undoubtedly proved his strength during the competition, and challenged anyone who accuses him of not deserving his position to come and fight him in the ring. Suffice to say, no one came forward to challenge him.<br>
<br>
►The martial-arts competition coincided with administration-sponsored, ship wide celebrations complete with lavish banquets and rare wines. The common man and C2 relish in the continued success of the GS-7, and are hopeful for the future - spiritually, culturally, and mission critically. Outside observers, on the other hand, look on in both fear and awe.

<b>Cycle Three - The Retrograde Epoch</b><br>
<br>
<b><b>15 February, 2370            <i>to            </i>15 February, 2400  </b></b><br>
<br>
With the very last of the original passengers of the fleet passing on to the great beyond, a new era is truly upon us. We have come well past the halfway point of the journey, entering past the 'retrograde epoch.' With the fabled TRAPPIST-1 system only several decades away, the execution of the final steps of the mission are now up to the men and women being born today.<br>
<br>
Passengers aboard the ship feel the strain on their bones as the fleet is put under 1 G of gravity for the first time in years.<br>

<br>
<b>►Enhanced air- and water-filters, recyclable:</b> Our scientists have managed to devise mobile and quick-deployable air and water recyclers that would facilitate and ease the complications of deploying temporary habitats in an airless environment. Our Chief Science Officer was inspired to this endeavor after reading classic science-fiction novel *The Martian*, in which protagonist Mark Watney struggles to jury-rig his habitat's bulky and fragile life-support systems to work with his rover over a long journey. These new modular, re-deployable life-support systems would have made Watney's journey to Schiaparelli crater much safer and more feasible, and will surely help real colonists in ensuring their safety and convenience in airless environments.

			<b><u>GS-2 Belayev's Redemption Reports:</u></b><br>
<br>
►<b>Hardcoded Motivator:</b> A thorough analysis of the rogue droid has confirmed what we already long expected: The behavior the droid exhibited was as a result of hardcoded 'motivators' inserted into its codebase - an entirely artificial, human-made addition, likely intended to imitate what the editor thought would pass as a 'sentient droid'. We have developed self-tests that would be able to detect these motivators in an HIAI.<br>
<br>
►<b>Brain-Computer Interface:</b> Further research and gradual innovations in brain-computer interface technology has yielded yet another victory for the field of bionics - our scientists, using old and new techniques, have devised a brain-interpretive interface that would allow those with robotic limbs (and those controlling machinery) to use their thoughts as a controller. The devised chip interprets certain brainwaves and sends corresponding commands to connected machinery, allowing a mostly-intuitive, motion-free method of controlling robotic limbs and machinery. Nonetheless, the tech isn't perfect, and healthy testers described discomfort and nausea when operating certain types of machinery and motion schemes, such as maneuvering thrusters or forklifts. For amputees, though, the tech is a perfect fit.

			<u><b>GS-4 Gaia Reports:</b></u><br>
<br>
<b>►Improved Recycling:</b> We have made improvements in metal and plastics recycling that will allow a 10% increase in efficiency from previous recyclers, bringing the most efficient recycling process up to 85% efficiency. However, this efficiency comes at no insignificant cost, and its predicted that often, like most previous methods, simply disposing and replacing will be come the more economical norm when we reach the surface. <br>
<br>
<b>►Nutrient Paste:</b> Nutrition scientists have devised an almost-ideal dried ration paste converted from contemporary hydroponics foodstuffs which has a shelf life longer than the human lifespan. Unfortunately, there is no aiding in the terrible taste of the stuff, which scientists reported to be 'so bad, the taste acquires you.'  It will, however, keep you alive in an emergency.

			<b><u>GS-5 Britannic Reports:</u></b><br>
<br>
<b>►Agent Eden:</b> Revisions and further tweaks to Agent Emerald have produced a vitalizing agent that is much safer for the environment, and certainly safe for consumers. Nicknamed 'Agent Eden', the derivative vitalizing agent is estimated to be only 15% as ecologically damaging, although in turn it is only 20% as effective as Agent Emerald in boosting fertility and growth. Still, with these efficiencies, 'Agent Eden' makes for a fairly high grade fertilizer among competitors, and can be readily produced from the very products we grow in hydroponics. <br>
<br>
<b>►Biologically-Derived Polymer:</b> In efforts to tackle potential part shortages, scientists have devised a moderate-strength bioplastic which can be fabricated specifically from our hydroponically-grown crops. Things like nuts, bolts, small hand tools, canvases and low-durability fairings can now be sustainably printed without running down our metal parts. However, our scientists don't recommend using the new 'BDP' plastic for anything that hinges on structural integrity.

<br>
<b>►Nature's Machine:</b> In a first, we have managed to devise a set of fully-implantable artificial reproductive organs. Though not exactly the most family-friendly discovery, it will go a long way to integrated the human brain with a fully mechanical body. With the use of cell-breeding chambers and synthetic 'canvas', scientists were able to demonstrate a fully functioning, self-regulating, sperm-producing penis which in addition to being fully capable of reproduction, is designed to be resistant against sexually transmitted disease. Its counterpart is the 'cybernetic womb', which, at least according to peer-reviewed simulations, is capable of producing eggs, accepting fertilization, and even possibly supporting a fetus to birth, all while monitoring the fetus's health, delivering the ideal amount of nutrients, and screening for potentially toxic substances (such as alcohol) or foreign pathogens.

A Blixthammari-Plutonian politician and activist, Andreu, going under the alias <i>Gria Drye,</i> was the mastermind behind the Organization to Restore Freedom on the Saint Joseph Labre - a major motivator of political and social change in the late 24th century. To the many social-progressive and migrationist groups now burgeoning across the fleet, Mr. Andreu's success is seen as an example of the power inherent in protest and civil resistance. Through his efforts, the ORF, now the Democratic Immigrant Party of the Blixthammar, is considered the de-facto leader of the fleet's progressive sphere.</div>

Protests and unrest were kickstarted when players of the Jole's national team, the ZG-Monkeys, staged an on-field protest against the ship's corporate government headed up by Director-General James R. Oligon. The cup's first impressions were further damaged when the Britannic Rounders staged a last-minute walk-off during the final match of the cup, allowing the Belayev's Redemption Cosmoletes to take the TRAPPIST Chalice by default. While the public watched in awe as unrest built across the fleet after years of suppression, political activists lauded the disruptions as a victory - indeed, the protests staged at the ULTRA Cup would contribute towards the negotiation of several deals for cross-ship migration, including the emigration of non-Plutonian political dissidents from Saint Jole, and their enfranchisement onboard the Blixthammar. In the following years, the event's political consequences have increasingly come to light, with progressive movements across the fleet regaining their lost momentum.</span></span>​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px">​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px"><span style="font-size: 15px"><b><span style="font-family: 'tahoma'">FLEET</span></b></span>​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px"><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">Nevertheless, the ULTRA Cup would go on every four years without much consequence, though a new tradition of protesting at the final match for one's cause becomes de-facto condoned by the cup authority, who see it as both inevitable and politically expedient as fans tune in to watch a team throw the match. Nonetheless, after each 'protest', the final match goes on. As a result of their staying power and brand recognition, the teams of the first ULTRA Cup become permanent fixtures of the cup, with different players and teams rotating in to play as 'Cosmoletes' or 'ZG-Monkeys'.

Blixthammar ORF Party Office<br>
<br>
"Greetings everyone and thank you for being here today. Today is a day of reflection. Of remembrance. It has been awhile since we lost the great Admiral Spjuth. Most of us would not be here today if it wasn’t for them, and their support and aid in the past. This past decade has been one of great action as well. The Blixthammar has made monumental strides in all areas of civil rights and liberties, as well as preparation for the arduous tasks ahead: Trappist-1. I myself could not be more pleased with the work Admiral Hammargren has been doing while in office. I had confidence during his election, and I have continued confidence today. With reflection of course, also comes the need to look the other direction. To look ahead. Ahead of us stands one of the most important, dangerous, and significant moments in human history, a date that shall be marked throughout time forever remember when the New Worlds Solar Endeavor disembarks on foreign soil. This is precisely why we must be adequately prepared for whatever lies in wait on our future home. That is not to naysay or discount the current ongoing projects to get us ready. Indeed, the change in education, as well as technological advancements made in hydroponics and biology are incredibly important, but we must do more. It is at this time that I wish to announce that the ORF will be changing its face. Changing its name and mission. We have accomplished what we set out to do in the past, and now we look forward. The ORF Party shall now be known as the Labor Party. Our goal is simple: To ensure that the Blixthammar is as ready as possible for the colonization process, and transition to ground. Among that includes the most important tenant of all: the protection of civil liberties and rights and safety of our citizens. For when we move from ship to ground, changes will come. Those changes cannot compromise what we stand for, and these is the Labor Party’s goals.<br>
<br>

I as well have another announcement, a rather more personal one. I will be stepping down as chair of the Labor Party at the end of this cycle… I have served for the past decade. Before that I have spent my time fighting every day of my life for those I care deeply about, which is just about everyone. But I too, must look to my own future and I do not know how much longer I have. I wish to spend those days enjoying something other than fighting or surviving. Perhaps I shall take up writing or a sport?! Ha ha ha. Nonetheless, I am grateful to every single one of you for all your support throughout the years. And don’t worry I will not leave you empty handed. To take my place is more than capable and has been ready for this roll many years ago: Toahlud Grimerion, deputy of the new Labor Party, soon to be Chair. Toahlud, you are ready. Do not doubt yourself for a second. Everyone else. Thank you as well.<br>
<br>
For the last time, this is Gria Drye… signing out."<br>

In a move that would solidify its status as the chief ruling body aboard the ship, Parliament ratified an act to establish the Prime-Minister as the head-of-state on the GS-5 Britannic, relegating the vacant Governorship to irrelevancy as a consequence. Elections were held to build a new government in 2276, and longtime MP Ashley Stewart has now emerged as the Britannic's Prime Minister and most prominent politician, backed by a considerable progressive coalition.

While underground progressives vowed to take vengeance on Oligon and his board of directors, they were now powerless - their movement was on another ship, and they faced the full legal girth of Corporate law. The word of Trev Andreu reverberated through the Jole - truly, now, the ship had cut the lights. For better or worse. With the ORF dissolved, however, the Jole's remaining progressive movements splinter and become more radical....</span></span>​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px">​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px"><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">►Taking power from his father, James R.

Outside observers are naturally worried, but proponents of the bill argue that it is not so nefarious - specialized schooling for specific career fields early in life can be a major boost to future career opportunities, they argue. Indeed, with each corporation able to operate on its own curriculum, educations specific to career-readiness in that corporation have now become possible.</span></span>​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px">​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px"><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">►Almost immediately after becoming Director-General, Oligon puts the 'Union Act' to the floor - a bill that fully criminalizes labor unions and establishes measures for dissolving them via corporate jurisdiction. The bill reaches a hitch with the dissent of several majors, such as Director Cook and Director Rothschild objecting on grounds of ambiguity in terms of defining a 'union.' After some negotiations to remedy potential unintended consequences, the bill passes un-amended.</span></span>​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px">​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px"><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">►As part of debates over the Union Act, the Free Market Act is proposed, passing 9-1. The act allows those dissatisfied with their corporation to establish their own via charter, echoing but thoroughly subverting republican sentiments that rocked the ship in the past decade. Many underground progressives begin to switch sides, and many 'illegal unions' appear to die, with their benefactors rising up as the heads of profitable startups. It appears that many millionaires are no longer embarrassed.</span></span>​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px">​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px"><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">►In 2381, Oligon's board establishes the 'Sovereign Charter Act', which establishes provisions and guidelines for the creation of autonomous corporate colonies under Jospehite jurisdiction. Aside from providing an ample framework for the creation of colonies with a high degree of independence from the board, the bill also provides remedies for disputing underutilized natural resources under the 'Economic Good Act', which sanctions independent action from industries when a corporation endangers the market. Provisions of the Sovrteign Charter Act allow the annexation of mineral deposits from other colonies which are not economically capable to mine them, or the forfeiture of natural deposits to the colony's parent corporation under similar circumstances. The bill came as the culmination of popularist masterminds such as Director Rothschild, who has long advocated for sub-corporate autonomy and greater ease of doing business.</span></span>​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px">​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px"><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">►In reaction to a deadly and out-of-control strike-turned-riot, the board of directors passes the 'Strikbreak Act of 2383', criminalizing labor strikes. Political analysts aboard the Jole and across the fleet now look back at this law as the final nail in the coffin for organized labor, as a record number of corporations are founded aboard the Jole. In part because of increasingly frequent violent confrontations and the increased ability to self-determine, republicanist sentiments aboard the Jole have become increasingly unpopular. In tandem, contemporary popular media and writing has given birth to a new narrative on the ORF and progressivist movements - that of terrorists and disruptors. Now it shows - Instead of striking, disgruntled workers are forging their way to new opportunities by embracing the corporate system.</span></span>​</div>

An ever-powerful parliament, however, is now saying that the admiral should be appointed by the people, taking example from the Blixthammar. In a twist of fate (and in an effort to avoid political backlash), the executive ruled that it does not have to appoint an admiral. In doing so, it has left the Gaia's most important position vacant, with Parliament tentatively stepping up to put the Prime-Minister in a foreign relations role, for now. Negotiations are ongoing, of course, and the future of the executive is at odds.</span></span>​</div>

Being the only example of an HI droid aboard the Britannic, Cornelius takes on a role within the church rather than being put to work in roles more traditional for the Britannic's robotic labor force. Nonetheless, with droids now having a place in the two major faiths across the fleet, automicists see this news as a 'win' for relations between Christians and Assians. This comes as the Church announces its intention to make brethren for Cornelius, all to serve a religious and social purpose...</span></span>​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px">​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px"><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">►With Parliament now reigning supreme in affairs of state, the Church has begun to distance itself from secular affairs, increasingly relegating itself to affairs of faith. Across the Britannic, the two worlds are slowly unwinding, with the church and state becoming increasingly independent bases of political and social ideology. While some characterize the move as positive for the Church, who are now less beholden to the whims of a secular government, some are afraid of the potential consequences of decreased influence of the church in state policy. Most worrying of all, however, is those who warn of a return to the sectarian unrest of the mid-century, where atheists and Christians were rioting and fighting on the streets. While many are quick to shoot down these warning as speculation, one thing is now known for certain - a strong democratic government on the Britannic is here to stay.</span></span>​</div>

The revelations further put the nail in the coffin for public support of the progressive movements aboard the ship, and crackdowns against groups were swift and decisive. In reaction to this perceived new threat, public cries for increased security swept the ship, and Admiral Sharonov obliged the public by authorizing an expansion to the Ship security force's roster of personnel.

An emphasis is placed on Russian history, though discussions of religion are notably absent, in line with the administration's secularist position, and owing to a trend of decreasing faith among those polled. Also notably absent is verbose discussion of the Soviet era, with most class curricula focusing instead on the formation of the Russian Republic in the 2080s and onward.</span></span>​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px">​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px"><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">►Additional to his reforms of the education system was the addition of democracy to the ship in the form of 'Crew Representatives' - three publicly elected officials who serve as an advisory to the admiral and retain some legal powers to check the admiral's.

In addition to introducing new holidays, all such events are declared work-free days. Not only does this help bolster forward-thinking Zumadze's popularity in one of the most conservative ships on the fleet, but conversions to the automicist faith see record highs in the first 18 years of Zumadze's reign. Though some question if these converts are genuine in their faith (who doesn't want days off work?) the numbers are nonetheless a huge success to religious authorities on the Xwytsau, and indeed automicists across the fleet.</span></span>​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px">​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px"><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">►Efforts to improve and optimize the efficiency of the ship's onboard computers and servers becomes a major priority for Zumadze's first 5 years in office, and he saddles software engineers with the gargantuan task of completely remaking the ship's autonomous management software from scratch - an endeavor which would no doubt free up a significant amount of memory and processing power for other tasks relevant to the 'Machine-Spirit'. In 2394, The Xwytsau's top scientist announces that the rebuild is complete, and the ship goes literally dark (save for some critical systems) for over a week while modifications and upgrades are made. At the end of the week, the Xwytsau comes out running a physical memory surplus, with global CPU usage is markedly down. The ship's upgraded management software is not only lightweight and purpose-built for the ship's current situation, but notably more efficient and able to run flawlessly on older hardware.</span></span>​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px">​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px"><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">►Fear-inducing hiccups in hydroponics during the shutdown motivated Zumadze to mandate new routine priority checks and upgrades to the closed-loop ecosystems feeding the ship's fleshy denizens, and after completion, hydroponics are notably more stable during maintenance periods, and especially more capable of recovery from an unexpected disruption.</span></span>​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px">​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px"><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">►In a landmark 2392 speech, Hetman Zumadze acknowledged the sectarian differences between various Assian beliefs, and promised that all sects and beliefs had a place on the Xwytsau. To that effect, he declared the elevation of 'naturalist assianism', also known as 'Old-Earth Uatsdin' to sacred status, establishing a 'caste' for believers of the old faith, free from the robotic trappings of automicist assianism. While some in the church feared that this move would de-legitimize the automicist institution, most embraced the elevation of the Xwytsau's second-largest faith as a bold and effective stride towards unity.</span></span>​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px">​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px"><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">►Hetman Zumadze acknowledged that the commitment of the 'Machine-Spirit' to humanoid form would not be complete if Xwytsau's Avatar did not have his rightful place of rest.

Further work and research will be needed to make progress, and efforts are ongoing.</span> </span>​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px">​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px"><b><span style="font-family: 'tahoma'">►Plugging the Leaks &amp; Quick-swap Parts </span></b>​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">By devising a system of modular, interchangeable parts for various modules on our ship, we have been able to cut down repair times at a slightly increased material cost. This will prove useful in the maintenance of vital systems like hydroponics, which, while closed-loop, have been reliant on auxiliary food supply to get us through the century. Our emergency food consumption will be notably lower from now on. Additionally, we have made improvements to the closed-loop system itself, with increased retention of organic material and a decrease of un-recyclable waste. Coupled with increases in harvest productivity, we have managed to nearly eliminate our reliance on emergency food, at the cost of higher maintenance via parts. Nevertheless, it is safe to say that we are now capable of exporting our emergency food to buy other supplies. In a free market such as the Blixthammar, purchase would be easy enough. </span>​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px">​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px">​</div><b><span style="font-size: 22px"><span style="font-family: 'tahoma'">GS-6 Xwytsau Reports</span></span></b><br>

Although not a fully functioning organ in its own right, a surgical procedure to install the device would allow it to act as a temporary failsafe against liver failure, as well provide increased functionality to a healthy organ and even notifying the patient when he/she has ingested a toxin. We believe that the monitoring and measuring capability will do wonders in encouraging healthier lifestyles, as activities such as drinking will be reflected to the patient in straightforward stats and notifications, thus allowing them to always be aware of the immediate damage their habits cause. Further work towards developing a standalone artificial liver is ongoing, but this alone is revolutionary for the medical field. </span></span>​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px">​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px"><b><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'tahoma'">►Ruggedized PCB &amp; Thermally-Hardened Fairings</span></span></b>​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><span style="font-size: 15px">After simulations of habitation on various planets in the TRAPPIST-1 system revealed a particular vulnerability of our electronics to unhampered radiation and temperature fluctuations, engineers were tasked with developing a universal ruggedization which could be applied to any electronic component and be tested for effectiveness within a week of mounting. After years of trial-and-error in the radiation battering chamber, we have managed to create a more rugged implementation of the age-old printed circuit board, as well as a printable ruggedized fairing for other electronics. While the specialized materials relied upon for these fairings are not cheap, this solution will markedly increase the lifespan of electronics in high-intensity thermal and radioactive environments. </span></span>​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px">​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px"><span style="font-size: 15px"><b><span style="font-family: 'tahoma'">►Z-Bar </span></b></span>​</div><div style="margin-left: 20px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Using prior advancements from other ships as a springboard, we have managed to devise a nutrient-dense food bar for use in prolonged zero-G habitation, as well as for supplementation in gravity wells. The bars are not nutritionally complete, but they provide a large surplus of protein and also contain a dose of the anti-atrophy supplements commonly taken in pill form, making them more palatable and more effective when combined with the mix of macronutrients packed in the bar. The process used to create and stamp these nutrient bars is not very efficient, but they are a shelf-stable and highly rich emergency food source. </span></span>​</div></div>

<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">Regardless, the fleet centennial's success both in its execution and in the perceptions of the public eye has laid the groundwork for future cross-fleet events, including the not-so-distant arrival celebration set to be hosted by the Britannic, drawing from its experience of hosting the centennial.</span></span><br>

<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">While post-modern monetary theory has served the Blixthammar well in the running of its mixed market economy and the ship overall, many free-market theorists had, as of recent, begun a push towards the extension of trade and inter-ship commerce across the fleet, no doubt assisted by rumors of some admirals' open support for fleet commerce during the centennial. Though in the coalescing stages of this movement parliament was split, having other matters in consideration, the advent of a popular referendum to enact these reforms led many MPs to pick up inter-ship commerce as a platform. Soon enough, the majority of Prime-Minister Ostrom's party was backing major reforms to facilitate external commerce, with pre-emptive regulation to boot. With these regulations came a strong progressive push not only to promote free trade policy on the Blixthammar, but an integrationist policy across the fleet, starting with the consolidation of the Fennoscandian Credit (FCr) into the Common Credit (Cr or ₡</span>). As part of the push to facilitate this new currency's adoption and integration, parliament moved to file a motion in the UFO for a non-binding economic policy agreement, the scope of which would include any consenting parties.</span><br>

<b><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'tahoma'">GS-2 Belayev's Redemption</span></span></b><br>
<span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Similar sentiments began to arise on the GS-2 when the ship's well-to-do arrived back home from the Britannic, hungry for more consumer goods and experiences doled out on a silver platter. Only worse was that their hunger only grew when they found their desires chained by strict ration quotas and supply allotments on the Britannic. Some began to think that had they money to complement their status, they'd have all the <i>hors d'oeuvre </i>that they could ever desire. Intriguing enough, the shop-runners and merchants working the centennial seemed to agree, and more than a few valuable items were 'lost' on the Britannic, while Belayevskis returned with ample souvenirs and leftovers. The movement to establish currency on the GS-2 was only strengthened when it came out to the public that the governments of the GS-2 and GS-6 had floated the idea of a <i>digital ruble</i>, though later decided to shelf it. As the movement grew louder and stronger, Admiral Oshankobich was forced to respond. In a series of public speeches and appearances, he put forth decisive arguments against currency and called for <i>patience</i>. "Scarcity," he argued, was "the excuse for fiat. In a world where scarcity may no longer exist, currency has no excuse to exist." Despite great popular support, the GS-2's establishment stood behind their centrally planned strategy. Eventually, calls for the digital ruble to come back died down as the issue faded from the public memory and other issues took precedence.</span></span><br>

<b><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'tahoma'">GS-3 Saint Joseph Labre</span></span></b><br>
<span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><span style="font-size: 15px">The tumultuous political and social situation aboard several key ships as well creeping resource shortage and lack of direction for many corporations about the GS-3 led some intrepid corps to petition the board to legally sanction the expansion of Jole corporation operations beyond the GS-3 itself. Indeed, while many corporations on the GS-3 exist in name, their operations are notedly limited when observed by political and economic analysts across the fleet. Coupled with rumors of friendly talks between Director-General Oligon and then-prime-minister of the Gaia Eric M. Poole, it began to appear as if the Saint Jole would be the first entity to make a major push toward cross-ship commerce. Alas, it was not meant to be - after a series of allegedly fiery debates between directors, the Jole's Board of Directors decided that it would not act to establish cross-ship corporate operations. Though it did not cite a reason for pulling back (and the board rarely makes its intentions clear,) political analysts on the Blixthammar speculated that protectionism was the culprit - with strong monopolies over the ship and tangible material operations to put them ahead of the GS-3's nominal corps, the top corporations of the Board of Directors were seeking to prevent incursion of competition onto the ship. Nonetheless, Director-General Oligon, in a speech to corp CEOs, said he was "confident that material opportunity will drastically expand upon arrival."</span></span><br>

<b><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'tahoma'">GS-4 Gaia</span></span></b><br>
<span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><span style="font-size: 15px">The nearly half-century long power struggle between the ascendant parliament and the archaic executive took a major step toward resolution when in 2407, Prime-Minister Poole's Progressive party informally assented to the appointment of a new admiral, marking the end of a thirty year vacancy.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Tentatively entering a seat which has long faded into irrelevancy but yet retained its legal authorities, Admiral Lothar Wolff immediately signaled his intent to close the wounds of the past and move further toward an amicable compromise. Through his guidance of the Executive and negotiations with then-Prime Minister Liam Marsh, a series of keystone reforms to government were achieved, starting with the reorganization of the Executive under a bicameral parliamentary government. The executive's overriding authority was thus cancelled and reformed into a power of veto by majority against Parliament, while also affording Parliament a power of override by supermajority. These reciprocal checks and balances in the distribution of power served to ease fears about regression to an executive-dominated ship, and has fueled the rising stardom of Admiral Wolff among democratist proponents who saw him now as a progressive reformer.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The executive itself saw major reforms to its structure, becoming the distributed parts of a sort of half-legislative, half-executive branch of government. Admiral Wolff consolidated the several dozen seats on the Executive into just ten - heads of various departments on the ship, such as the ministers of war, education, science, foreign affairs, agriculture, development and housing, health, justice, finance and commerce, and internal affairs. This reorganization not only served to shift the executive's role to be more appropriate to its place in the government, but as a preparatory measure for full scale transition to ground-based society on TRAPPIST-1e. It would seem, then, that the era of strife and political uncertainty on the Gaia was coming to an end, even despite lasting grievances from more radical elements. Indeed, while, objections to the mere existence of the executive still remained a popular platform in parliament, the conversation has shifted dramatically in the last thirty years.</span></span><br>

<b><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'tahoma'">GS-5 Britannic</span></span></b><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">Being at the heart of recent movements to <i>capitalize</i> on business opportunity and cross-ship commerce, the Britannic too saw calls for the establishment of market economy on an otherwise centrally-planned ship. With many shopkeepers noticing how lucrative tourism and sales could be, the desire to accrue and build wealth reached a high point until then-Prime Minister Ashley Stewart led a decisive counter in parliament to kill various measures and bills to establish the economy. In his famous "time and place" speech, Stewart emphasized the criticality of preserving supplies and checking consumption, especially as the journey crept ever-closer to its conclusion. Stewart also promised that he would push toward setting up the Britannic for further changes as society transitioned toward ground-based life. Indeed, though proponents of capitalism were robbed of their opportunity to integrate into the Blixthammar's major push for the markets, they could not argue against Stewart's rationale, and indeed had little to trade in these proposed 'markets' of theirs. The debate was finally settled when Parliament decisively killed a major bill for market transition in 2410, with only lame duck bills resulting there-forth.</span></span><br>

Traveling at a hundred kilometers per second on a fly-by vector of TRAPPIST-1, Voyager's first stop was the not-so-distant future home of the fleet. See you, space cowboy...</span></span><br>

<span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Swept up in the currents of popular demand for currency driven by the experiences of the centennial, Admiral Sharonov reacted in different tone to his counterpart on the GS-2 when calls for the revival of the digital ruble project rose up. Instead of condemning currency in favor of digitally-driven central planning, Sharonov condemned the 'hyper-monetarist tendencies' of the GS-3 Saint Joseph Labre's corporate sovereignty, instead vowing that the Future of Russia would look towards a well-regulated mixed market economy as the ship made the transition to its new planetary existence. For now, AI-assisted optimizations to the central planning system were promised (and evidently implemented over the years, leading to a reduction in some supply shortages) while plans to increase the role of private ownership and resource distribution were slated for the near future.</span></span><br>

<span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><span style="font-size: 15px">►In 2415, local shipboard organizations and companies came together to help the government host the 'Innovative Engineering Fair', a sort of technology showcase event where inventors and freelance engineers could show off their ideas and projects. Corporate and government scouts snaked about visiting booths and larger scale exhibitions in order to scoop up the brightest talent and most interesting technological innovations. Small-scale inventor Wilmer Sköld and his startup firm became the star of the show when he unveiled the prototype for a orbit-to-ground mounting bracket system which could allow the safe transition of equipment from orbit. Sköld's invention piqued the interest of officials from the Blixthammar's department of engineering, and within the year his firm had successfully won a bid for a contract to construct orbit-to-ground logistical equipment.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">►Not long after the fair and coinciding with Blixthammar's annual 'Sustainability Month', residents of the Blixthammar came out to participate in the Civil Expo, where visitors were wowed by future colonial equipment and artist depictions of the colony on TRAPPIST-1e. In addition, visitors signed up and participated in self-defense, wilderness survival and ecological sustainability classes. Ratings for the expo were high and many came away polling satisfaction with the expo itself, as well as enthusiasm for the classes and training offered therein.</span><br>

Though with little teeth as a set of mere guidelines, many corporations running their own education systems began to pick up on the basic tenets of the guidelines, including the exclusion of humanities, arts and crafts from their class rosters. This left some political analysts worried for the future of education on the Jole, powerless though they are to impart any influence on the board. Outside observers, in their incessant criticism of the Jole's actions, noted that the private schools of the elite on the Jole not only include a full array of humanities and liberal arts curricula, but are also multifaceted and oriented towards an individualistic approach toward one's career.</span></span><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><br>

<span style="font-size: 15px">►Further defining their realms of influence and responsibility, the Church and Parliament announced jointly in 2420 that they would be cooperating in facilitating the spread of both faith and the democratic spirit. In doing so, they would be spreading the Britannic's core values. In 2421, this announcement became reality as missionaries began to appear on the Blixthammar - notable for being the only truly open ship. Meanwhile, pro-democracy groups across the fleet, even where previously thought to have been snuffed out, have apparently begun to gain steam again. Surely not out of coincidence.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">►In conjunction with this push for democratic spirit and sentiment across the fleet was a prompt 'walking of the walk', in which Parliament voted unanimously to permanently abolish the office of governor, which had only served a symbolic role aboard the ship by the time of its disestablishment.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">►In 2425, Parliament voted to legalize cross-ship trade, organized and facilitated by the state supply authority. Exports of food to the Blixthammar began in 2426 and were well underway thereafter, with the Britannic's credit reserves slowly growing. Though reserved only for use by the State Supply Authority, this reserve of credits generated from food exports would now allow the Britannic to import specialty parts and electronics from the Blixthammar.</span></span>

<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">►Swept up in the currents of popular demand for currency driven by the experiences of the centennial, Admiral Sharonov reacted in different tone to his counterpart on the GS-2 when calls for the revival of the digital ruble project rose up. Instead of condemning currency in favor of digitally-driven central planning, Sharonov condemned the 'hyper-monetarist tendencies' of the GS-3 Saint Joseph Labre's corporate sovereignty, instead vowing that the Future of Russia would look towards a well-regulated mixed market economy as the ship made the transition to its new planetary existence. For now, AI-assisted optimizations to the central planning system were promised (and evidently implemented over the years, leading to a reduction in some supply shortages) while plans to increase the role of private ownership and resource distribution were slated for the near future.</span></span>

<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">►Through the last decade of the journey, Hetman Zumadze held massive religious services to celebrate the nearing end of the century-long mission to TRAPPIST-1, and the beginning of the ship's real journey toward founding an interstellar colony. Followers of all sect, age and status gathered at the Great Grove in 2430 to celebrate the final annual service on the ship before arrival in the alien system. In a speech to mass, Hetman Zumadze wished everyone luck in the closing moments of the journey, and prayed for a smooth transition to planetside government and society.</span></span><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">►Celebrations for the end of the journey were accompanied by preparations for it as well, with tune-ups and upgrades conducted on the ship's hydroponics, many of which would serve as the initial lifeline of the GS-7's colony on TRAPPIST-1. A formulation of vitalizing agent derived from the Britannic's Agent Emerald was applied to hydroponics to boost food supply last minute in preparation for landings in the next two years.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">►On the governmental level, administrative transitions were already taking place as the GS-7 prepared to organize a planetside government, sovereign in its own right. The provisions and constitution were already prepared before arrival.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">►As the fleet approached ever closer to TRAPPSIT-1 and the red dwarf became visible to the human eye, a sense of unity and peace seemed to come over the ship. A sense of common relief, as faith and vigilance had guided the ship, and indeed the fleet through their journey. With only six months remaining until entry into the epitomal edge of the system, there was nothing left to do but pack the bags, setup the airlocks, and maintain hydroponics...</span></span>

<br>
<span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><span style="font-size: 15px">On the eve of 2430, the New Worlds Solar Fleet, or what had become of it in the preceding century, arrived in the TRAPPIST-1, distant and wholly removed from the Earthly affairs of Sol.</span></span><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><br>
To this place the contentious components of the fleet came to find a new home - to embark on virgin territory and forge their own destiny free from the influence of the ancien regimes of Earth and greater Sol. Instead of finding the 'terra nullius' they sought, however, they found that they had unwittingly come to the door of a burgeoning civilization not unlike that of their own many years ago.</span></span><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Though the colonizers did not know it yet, the Lengekyo shared a deep history with humanity, and this would be the basis from which their societies would develop to emulate the trappings of the European way of life - the fauna, flora and pathology of Earth would devastate and forever change the world, but at the same time would revolutionize the way of life for many societies on Henwya. From the cold-forged spear to the automobile, the bygone spirit and example of the Fennoscandian expedition would continue to imprint a distinctly human DNA unto the developmental direction of the planet, leading up to the arrival of the colonists.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The revelation that their new home was the cradle of a burgeoning civilization brought heavy impact on the colonists, much like that brought to the Lengekyo with the pioneers' sudden arrival. There were differing philosophies and extant alliances at work, bringing the fleet to division - over colonization and over how to cope with the existence of intelligent alien life, both in the greater universe and in the way of their plans of colonization. Genocide, conquest and subjugation were only a few of the words that came through the voice channels of the fleet. 'TRAPPIST-1e would be ours, no matter what it takes.' they said. Others stood up against this, forestalling hasty action.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Indeed, the first crucial test of character for the fleet would be then, as the nations of Henwya stood at ready with their nuclear arsenals aimed at the stars - aimed at the fleet. Unbeknownst to the advanced colonizers, the 'savages' and 'aliens' below wielded a cosmic form of power, that which they could simply not match in their vulnerable state at the end of a hundred year journey across the stars. The subjugation and conquest of this alien eden under an alien star was never to be, lest the sum total of humanity found itself engulfed in nuclear fire - the same fusion of atoms which had propelled them across the void and given them life in a lifeless place, could have been their end.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Those who stood up for the Lengekyo had already accepted the inevitability of co-habitation on their 'terra nova'. The likes of the Britannic and Blixthammar, as well as the repentant Belayev's Redemption, took the offers of the Jez'harwid emperor in stride, intending to carve out their own little place on Henwya. Under the influence of other powers, much like Sol, but without much choice in the matter. Others, fearing and distrusting of both the aliens and their fellow colonizers, traveled to not-so-distant corners of the system to carve out their own place in the ice and dust - harsh, inhospitable planets, but planets which were theirs to take as their own.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">It was in the backyard of one of these planets that the GS-3 Saint Joseph Labre would be the first to spot a strange object hanging in its sky. Obfuscated to the colonists at Henwya by the body of the sun, the gargantuan station at one of TRAPPIST-1d's lagrangian points would rapidly change the circumstances of the fleet's journey, bringing enemies together and allies apart. When hiding the station became untenable and the truth was forced to come out, all myriad of forces flocked to it to get a piece and see it in all its glory.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The Spiritual Intelligence - the Machine Spirit, as the Xwytsau chose to call it, surmised the purpose of the so-named Rubix and sought to bring together a wide-ranging group of experts who could bring the Rubix to commission and test its hypothesis. Bringing the seven ships - seven governments - to cooperation was a gargantuan task of its own magnitude to the repair and use of the station, but through backdoor deal and circumstance, the seven 'admirals' would finally come together to agree upon the repair of the Rubix.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The GS-1, in its quest to discover the fate of the long-gone pioneers, found that the Rubix's state was perhaps the work of a certain Admiral Odenberg, for whom they could not only thank its disrepair, but the ability to repair it - had he not stowed away the various puzzle pieces to be found, perhaps the Rubix would never be fired. Their extensive archives and possession of the exotic matter used to catalyze the Rubix's process allowed them their stake in its repair, and for the repair itself to go ahead.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The GS-2, having extensive knowledge of the countermeasures utilized by the ostensibly-pioneer occupants of the Rubix were able to remove these countermeasures and allow the safe use of the Rubix. Their occupation of the station later on would also serve instrumental in bringing a mutual agreement between all the parties, though contention over who truly controlled the station would remain.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The GS-3, adepts in the art of genetic fabrication, were able to reconstruct the DNA of Admiral Odenberg, allowing the then-unknown catalyzer to be freed from its containment.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The GS-4, having long harbored an otherwise unknown level of knowledge about advanced fusion processes, was able to diagnose faults in the Rubix's reactor and facilitate its repair and recommissioning.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The GS-5, having extensive knowledge of software power-flow optimizations was able to get the Rubix running on its own power, even despite age and lack of some of its components.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The GS-6, having the most robust manufacturing capabilities of all ships in the fleet, was able to manufacture and transport vital replacement parts needed to bring the Rubix into commission.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The GS-7, with its powerful supercomputer and neutral demeanor, was itself a catalyst in unlocking the secrets of the Rubix and facilitating its repair by helping bring all parties together in times of disagreement. The powerful SI would serve as the manager-computer of the Rubix, allowing it to be controlled and fired.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">When all was said and done, the Rubix would be fired, forever changing the relationship between humanity and space. The opening of the wormhole would be limited, and brave souls volunteered for what could have been a one way trip. Among them, the Jez'Harwid Emperor Fez'Hirwa, as well as Admiral Oshankobich and Hetman Zumadze. They embarked on the three-day journey across the wormhole's length, knowing they could not make it back, and indeed, that the wormhole might destroy them only just as they entered its mouth.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">But they weren't destroyed. The fleet of shuttles sent through, whose names will never be forgotten - The GS-2 shuttle Novosibirsk, the GS-3 shuttle York, the GS-7 shuttle Tbilisi and the GS-4 shuttle Belfast - arrived through the opposite mouth of the wormhole intact and alive, and indeed in another star system. What had previously taken a hundred years, they had now done in three days.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The shuttle fleet soon found themselves fending for grabs and zooming off to explore, but also in order that they might buy their ticket home, for the wormhole was to close in only one day, and their shuttles would not be quick enough to pass through. They indeed found their ticket home in the five new Rubixes which they would discover in the system of Omicron Subes - all in states of repair and with copious fuel and catalyzer. It was twenty-three days of exploration, scavenging and surviving that the shuttle-fleet had spent before they arrived back in TRAPPIST-1, saved by the ingenious schematic of the SI and the unyielding hard-work of the Belfast crew to implement it in the second Rubix. With a control solution in place, they were able to re-open the wormhole and make their journey back. When they did, they arrived as heroes and as interstellar men - only the third class of their kind, and indeed the quickest and most intrepid of all three.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">But the exploration of Omicron Subes had created more questions than it answered - behind the Rubix there lie a system, and four more leading beyond, only God knowing where.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Further expeditions were mounted and further Rubixes hacked and investigated. Over the course of six months, humanity would visit more stars than it ever did in the entire history of the universe. Trailblazers discovered a myriad of new systems, all pristine, lacking of any presence except that of the Rubixes. Strange, but it was all that they had hoped for. The picture of their world had now gotten bigger. A new home - a real home lay out there for each and every one of the ships. They just had to go out and take it.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Now the choice was theirs - would they try their fortunes with the comfort and nearness of TRAPPIST-1's crowded eden and harsh, but sparse wastes, or would they pack up their canvas habs and gen-ships and sally out to find a new home among the stars?</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The choice is yours, admirals. A brave new world awaits you.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'tahoma'"><span style="font-size: 22px"><b>GS-4 Gaia Reports</b></span><br>
<b>►</b><span style="font-size: 15px"><b>Extra-Atmospheric Maneuverable Exoskeleton (EAME)</b></span></span><br>
<span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Although exoskeletons of military and industrial variety have existed for years, the EVA branch of exoskeleton technology has been lacking, especially given how uncommon extra-vehicular warfare is in space. Noting the advantages of having a self-contained augmentation to operate in space and fix dangerous faults on the external parts of ships, we have devised a self-contained exoskeleton kit with a full 6-degree range of maneuverability via mono-propellant thrusters, allowing full short-term travel in space like a normal EVA kit, but also affording the advantages of an industrial exoskeleton. </span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: 'tahoma'"><span style="font-size: 22px"><b>GS-5 Britannic Reports</b></span><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><b>►MOTHER Improvements</b></span></span><br>
<span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><span style="font-size: 15px">We have managed to successfully test and verify self-synthesis of MOTHER in the roots of a genetically-engineered maize plant. The plant grows in as little as half the time of regular maize, although the specimen is sterile. This is a landmark improvement, and further forays into making the plant fertile (as well as engineering other MOTHER plants) will prove to revolutionize our food production. </span></span><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><br>
<span style="font-family: 'tahoma'"><b>►AI of the Steel Brotherhood</b></span><br>
<span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">Our software engineers have devised and implemented a Christian-oriented AI which will be used by droids of the Steel Brotherhood. They have been given access to public forums and academia, as the 'cleric' class of HI droids assist scientists in making forays toward sentient AI. Though we are decidedly behind trailblazers such as the GS-7, we are currently making progress toward a more robust and versatile AI near par with the GS-7 mainframe, dubbed the 'Spiritual Intelligence' or 'Machine Spirit'. <br>
</span></span><br>
<span style="font-family: 'tahoma'"><span style="font-size: 15px"><b>►Energy Efficiency</b></span></span><br>
<span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><span style="font-size: 15px">In the closing years of our mission, we have been able to optimize energy use and have developed software self-tests on hardware to identify wear, allowing us to effectively track the lifetime and current operating condition of  a wide variety of electronic equipment, as well as know when to replace them in order to maintain optimal running of the ship, and indeed colonial facilities. </span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: 'tahoma'"><span style="font-size: 22px"><b>GS-7 Xwytsau Reports</b></span></span><br>
<b><span style="font-family: 'tahoma'">►Artificial lungs</span></b><br>
<span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><span style="font-size: 15px">We have managed to devise a fully implantable, self-contained set of lungs. These are very robust and have the ability better distribute oxygen through the body, although are still limited by the supply of oxygen in the environment. One great advantage  of the system is the ability to store a minute amount of oxygen, allowing brief forays into airless environments without any other supply of oxygen. Yet, this is still a finite source of oxygen and other solutions will still be needed. Still, this is a marvelous advancement for medicine, and a goodbye to lung cancer. </span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: 'tahoma'"><b>►Ruggedized Low-Light Solar Panels</b></span><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">Using our ruggedizing techniques, we have devised ruggedized solar panels that are resistant to temperature shock and have self-contained battery units. These are quick-deployable and portable. </span></span><br>
<br>
<b><span style="font-family: 'tahoma'">►Terminator Hydroponics</span></b><br>
<span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><span style="font-size: 15px">We have been able to optimize our hydroponic systems to resist temperature shock, as well as engineer planets that do better in low-light environments. Definitely not on-par with full-sunlight environments, but beneficial nonetheless and will help close the gap for our food supply. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Scientists from the Xingji Federation were greeted with this enthralling view when their Tàhuāng Zhě probe sent back the first false-color images from the exotic Kagami system, deep on the Federation's frontier. <br>
Kagami's lone Rubix has long been the subject of study because of its irregular design and hazardous radiation output, which until now prevented the crossing of both human and robotic explorers. However, after significant modifications to the Kagami Rubix, members of the Ministry of Interstellar Research's skunk works division were able to reduce the emissions of the facility enough to allow a hardened probe through.<br>
<br>
Not days after emerging through the other side of the Rubix and into Kagami, <span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Tàhuāng Zhě</span></span> lost contact with mission control, likely due to intense radiation from the system's star and rubix, but not before sharing its commanding and unprecedented view of the galactic plane of the Milky Way, thousands of light years away from Omicron Subes. <br>
<br>
MIR officials indicated that they were extremely interested in pursuing further research of the system, as scans by <span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Tàhuāng Zhě</span></span></span></span> indicated the presence of a small, solemn celestial body on the far side of the system. The ministry said they were committed to analyzing and directly imaging the object, but significant hardening against radiation will be necessary to enable a probe to make the several months' trip.</span></span></div>

Perhaps in another century or two when our solar system is all explored we will also have put our own planet in order. Then we will set sail for the stars and the beckoning worlds around them.<br>
In that day, our machines and our descendants approaching the speed of light, will skim the light-years leaping ahead through time, seeking new worlds. Einstein has shown us that it's possible.<br>
<br>
We will journey simultaneously to distant planets and to the far future. Some worlds, like this one will look out onto a vast gaseous nebula -  the remains of a star that once was and is no longer.<br>
<br>
In all those skies, among rich and distant and exotic constellations, there may be a faint yellow star, perhaps barely visible to the naked eye, perhaps seen only through the telescope. The home star of a fleet of interstellar transports exploring this tiny region of the great Milky Way galaxy."</span></span>

<span style="font-size: 15px">►Shortly after the departure of the various generation-ships, the major nations of Henwya came together to form and ratify the Concert of Henwya, an international organization of member nations responsible for the pursuance and regulation of activities in space. Shortly after the era of 'claims' began, the concert too asserted its sovereignty in the claims over several systems, including TRAPPIST-1 and Omicron Subes. Notable exceptions were made for the planets of Vechnaya Merzlota, Nog, and TRAPPIST-1d. The Britannian colony on Henwya and the Sovereign Fennoscandian Republic were extended status of association to the concert of Henwya, as according to their permanent habitation on the planet.<br>
<br>
►Over the years, the Rubix network has grown increasingly interconnected as the great generation ships have asserted their claims over vast swathes of space and many set up relays to bring information across these systems.<br>
<br>
►The status quo was somewhat upset by the arrival of a grand ten-ship fleet hailing from the distant solar system. A conglomeration of nationally and privately funded ships arrived in TRAPPIST-1 only fifteen years after the arrival of the New Worlds Solar Fleet, their populations bloated and supplies dwindling. Over the course of a year or so, many secured the help and assent of settlement to become part of the established nations, while some set out to find their own home among the stars. After thirty years, the new order of the cosmos has finally emerged as burgeoning interstellar nations grow out of their various gardens of eden, each a new Earth unto their own.</span></span>

►Having committed to staying in the TRAPPIST-1 system and forging the Blixthammar's destiny as a nation of Henwya, the GS-1 Blixthammar was decommissioned and gradually de-orbited to form the foundations of what would become the Sovereign Fennoscandian Republic.<br>
<br>
►Emperor Fez'Hirwa, on his death bed, granted the Fennoscandians a vast swathe of land constituting the Ryunoyu nation, upon which they would found their new nation. Re-negotiations of the terms of their governance and political status would, over the years, render the Fennoscandians effectively sovereign and independent of the Imperium, though yet allied to the powerful Fez'harwa.<br>
<br>
►The Fennoscandians' close relationship with the Fez'harwids would allow them to accede to associate status of the Concert of Henwya when it was negotiated, allowing them to receive special exemptions and privileges regarding activities in space and the keeping of a fleet.<br>
<br>
►The Fennoscandian capital of Blixthammar, so named after the ship upon which it was built, became the center for a burgeoning cross-racial empire which would develop in the preceding thirty years. The technological and administrative prowess of the Fennoscandians would put them in a special place among the nations of Henwya, and their technological and social impact would be compared in the immediate history books as similar to the pioneers' before them.<br>
<br>
►Up in the airless orbital band of Henwya, Fennoscandian satellites were rising, creating a constellation of interlinking data relays, giving the nation access to digital positioning and global communication - a technology which the nations of Henwya - the members of the Concert in particular - would take after very quickly. Soon, Henwya was encircled by satellites flying the flag of various nations, providing all manner of services to those on the ground.<br>
<br>
►In 2448, the construction of the Blixthammar Aeroplex was finished, complete with an embassy, international-scale runway system, and ten-pad spacelaunch facility. Plans to later add a planetary launch loop are in the making, although Parliament has shown its reluctance to take on a project of such magnitude when appropriations for new and advanced wind-farms, using new technology are still in talks, not to mention the continued integration of the refugees from the IV-8 Jannika Spjuth.<br>
<br>
►In 2459, the Fennoscandian Society of Modern Archaeology successfully won a bid to extract and preserve in a museum the old town of Blixthammar, made up of various habs and domes of dated design. In his speech to parliament, society president Ulf Brodd said the buildings, which were to be demolished to make way for more permanent, modern infrastructure, were irreplaceable articles of Fennoscandian and human history. Brodd's words resonated with more than just parliament, and though the buildings would be preserved, their removal from the city center was now seen as proof that Fennoscandia had entered a modern age - the age of the colony was done. The age of the nation, with Henwya as our home, had begun.</span></span>

<span style="font-size: 12px"><b><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">Head of the Republic</span></b><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"> Vitaly Oshankobich</span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">►In late 2431, the Belayev's Redemption was officially decommissioned and prepared for de-orbiting to the surface of what its people now called Chronus Prime - their new home.<br>
<br>
►Tasked with managing the logistic and economics of the now-declared Russo-Belayevski Republic is VOLOS - the Russians' advanced management AI, whose previous versions managed the critical systems of the GS-2. Now, this new model would be the supreme commander of the Russo-Belayvski economy on Chronus Prime.<br>
<br>
►One of VOLOS' primary priorities from the start was the establishment of a sustainable industry to produce autonomous droids, thus offloading the work of humans to the robots. The first steps of achieving its goal came with the establishment of ore-mining, steel-refining, research, construction, and other various firms related to the construction and design of droids. Assisted by an ample availability of energy from a tuned and upgraded GS-2 reactor, the AI embarked on this endeavor knowing it would have collateral benefits across the Belayevski economy. Progress would, of course, hit a hitch with the arrival of hundreds of thousands of refugees, and VOLOS would direct all efforts into agriculture and housing from there, still relating its intention of eventually continuing industrial work (including a wide survey of the planet &amp; improvements to the droid production process) to then-president Ivan Oshankobich.<br>
<br>
►In 2443, the republic made its first foray back into space with the establishment of Konstantin Station, a shipbuilding complex in geostationary orbit of Chronus Prime. With addition of a small spacelaunch facility in the outskirts of the capital, the first Russian rockets would exit the atmosphere for the first time in decades, sending parts up to construct and maintain the station.<br>
<br>
►Meanwhile, other spacecraft were venturing out into Chronus Prime's rings and near vicinity to gather resources for orbital construction. The first ships to be constructed at Konstantin Station would be three Andreyev-class ships built for the purpose of exploring, charting and claiming the republic's region of space.<br>
<br>
►By 2448, the entirety of Belayevski space had been charted and claimed for the republic, including distant and exotic territories at the frontier, some of which were near or even inside the Orion Molecular Cloud Complex - the majestic and awe-inspiring system of nebulas observed during the fleet's journey, and indeed for hundreds of years back on Earth.<br>
<br>
►In 2455, connection to the Royal Mail relay allowed the republic to confirm that its droid garrison at the TRAPPIST-1 / Omicron Subes Rubix was still in operating condition, though their level of actual control over the station had diminished after the birth and arrival of the Concert of Henwya.<br>
<br>
►At the eve of 2460, the skyline of the republic's capital had changed drastically. Indeed, contemporary historians say that one could now perch any person from Sol atop the highest hill, and feel confident that they would mistake that beautiful skyline for one of those on Earth. Though in the backdrop there were many issues arising from many sectors of society, including the continued push against command economy, the people of the Russo-Belayevski Republic forged their way into the mid-25th century with a sense of assurance and authority.</span></span>

<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><br>
►With the Rubix network open and unexplored, the GS-3 Saint Joseph Labre packed itself and its assets up and left for the unknown, only leaving a large comm satellite and the colonists on Henwya behind.<br>
<br>
►The GS-3 and its loose alliance of corporations would find their home among the stars in a system whose name is now lost. Now, it is known as System 01- the capital of the Commerce Executive. Partially scuttling the Saint Joseph Labre and then leaving its hab-rings in orbit to later constitute a station, the corporations made landfall on the planet of Eno, with Salton &amp; Creele at their head.<br>
<br>
►Many of the structures required for habitation and work were already in place by the time settlement of the planet was underway, and the pre-planned capital of the Commerce Executive, complete with corporate offices and sprawling boroughs organized by affiliation of corporation found its inhabitants soon.<br>
<br>
►New settlements cropped up all around the capital, filling their particular niche of exploiting some resource or natural land feature, but all nonetheless strictly governed by the capital authority. Strict and often brutal regulation over Salton &amp; Creele's monopoly on Eno led many corporations and communities to abscond from the capital region and flee to the far corners of the planet under various pretenses, but nonetheless far from central influence.<br>
<br>
►By the time the fleet of refugees from Sol had arrived, these disparate factions and corporations had all but fled Eno to find their own 'fiefs' among the stars, gradually peeling back the veil of enigma from System 01's interstellar neighborhood. While many more would come to find Eno and the capital their home, there was no shortage of planets and stars around which to find a home and base of operations. As a consequence, the Commerce Executive was likely first among the various sovereign factions in the cosmos to call itself 'interstellar.'<br>
<br>
►The growing space between the Commerce Executive's various settlements left much to be desired in terms of the logistics of connecting such a vast empire, and many corporations stepped up to the plate when the first inter-system shipping contracts began to crop up. The most prominent of which being Solarbus, the bulk freighting subsidiary of SolarCoin Plc. - Soon enough (and no doubt with the help of backdoor dealings on the board)  Solarbus had overtaken over fourty percent of the burgeoning interplanetary freight industry.<br>
<br>
►In 2453, the board announced that the PLUTARCH Planetary Defense Network - <span style="font-size: 15px">The network of missile-defense and gun platforms placed inside the orbital band of Eno</span> - was fully operational. The announcement was met with relief as the period of vulnerability for the Commerce Executive's capital planet came to an end. Still, others were naturally worried about the potential proactive applications of such a network...<br>
<br>
►In 2458, after years of setbacks, the Commerce Executive christened the first ships of what would constitute the Department of Orbital Defense. Two combat frigates - the CS Deter and CS Walski, a support frigate - the CS Erny, and a strategic weapons cruiser- the CS Murat, departed from Janus Station in early 2459 for their breaking-in flight.<br>
<br>
►In the same year, Ctesiphon 1, Eno's grand orbital hub, completed construction and was opened to visitors both from the ground and from across the Commerce Executive. By 2460, the station was already docking as many as a dozen ships per month.</span></span>

►Venturing out into the stars after a tumultuous deliberation among both Parliament and the Executive, the Gaians found their homestead in the cosmos around a distant, pearl-white star - the temperate pale blue marble which stood before them they would call Gaia, after the ark which had carried them and everything the knew thus far.<br>
<br>
►The death of Gaia the ship was not in vain, as upon its guts, standing on the gravelly sands of a pale beach, the Gaians would set the foundations for an interstellar federation.<br>
<br>
►Within fifteen years, the Federation had already returned to space, traveling out to reap the harvest it had sown years earlier with its various exploration probes. Gaia was already home to a bustling city, and the arrival of hundreds of thousands of refugees coupled with the generous incentives of vat-birthing had caused the planet to outgrow its capacity to supply and feed the people.<br>
<br>
►As their ancestors did, Gaian pioneers hitched rides to make their own room among the stars. Over the course of the latter fifteen years, three new interstellar states would be founded and admitted to the Federation. Like the many other space-faring nations of the day, the Federation of 2460 had arrived as a venerable organism worthy of the status of 'nation'.<br>
<br>
►...And like the many other nations staking their claim in the Rubix chain, Gaian traders would eventually find their way back to Omicron Subes, discovering the international zone of trade which had been born in their absence. It was a new dawn for humanity among the cosmos.</span></span>

<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">►Despite leaving TRAPPIST-1 to forge their commonwealth in the cosmos, the Britannians were by no means running away from Henwya - Over the years, the extant colony on Henwya, which started as a private venture of the East Star Trade Company, would grow to such a magnitude as to shrug off corporate governorship and henceforth declare itself the 'Dominion of Kaledon.', who would themselves forge their own legacy among the many nations of Henwya, their patronage of a new chapter of the Steel Brotherhood notwithstanding.<br>
<br>
►Despite the freedom it afforded them, the people and administration of Kaledon were naturally reluctant to be left to their own devices on a strange, alien planet, far from the support of the Britannic and most of its people. Though the realm was the revered custodian of Henwya's second-largest global communications and satellite imaging constellation, it lacked the means to project and maintain infrastructure beyond the near-vicinity of Henwya.<br>
<br>
►Extreme difficulty of communications between Glassgate and the new capital of the Commonwealth in distant Gilgamesh would eventually give birth to the Intergalactic Royal Mail, whose network of relay satellites stretching from Gilgamesh to TRAPPIST-1 would speed up the travel of all manner of information by an order of magnitude, with services eventually expanding beyond the domestic market.<br>
<br>
►While the people of Shaddai were still hard at work setting up their grand vision of an interstellar commonwealth, the people of Kaledon were enjoying something of a colonial renaissance, becoming ground-zero for the birth of a slew of international organizations on Henwya, culminating in Kaledon's association with the Concert of Henwya and the foundation of the Glassgate Advanced Research Institute - originally a quaint campus of prefabricated buildings, the latter fifteen years of its existence would elevate it to world-status as sons and daughters of kings, emperors, presidents and prime-ministers flew to the lakelands to receive a human education in practical sciences.<br>
<br>
►In his hit 2458 documentary, Jez'harwid filmmaker Nyuseuor Neelo would chronicle the college's rise from a local STEM campus for colonists to a world-class university. The documentary would gain positive critical traction in human space for its well-researched and candid interviews of alumni such as Orem Nac'ck, founder of Hlemso's largest aerospace corporation.</span></span>

<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><br>
►With the blessing of the Merzlotski colonists, the Future of Russia packed up and left TRAPPIST-1 to venture forth and found a colony on the newly-discovered eden planet of Zhiva, so-named after the life-giving deity.<br>
<br>
►Though optimism for the founding of the Republic pervaded the early years, Zhiva would face significant difficulties in the succeeding years over the continually-delayed transition to market economy and unanswered questions as to the political nature and role of the Republic.<br>
<br>
►Though the United Russia party, whose named called back to one of old, enjoyed rule with impunity in the first fifteen or so years, this all changed when hundreds of thousands of refugees from Sol arrived in TRAPPIST-1. Having offered the Russians among them safe-haven and hearth on Zhiva, the Alexandr Sharonov's United Russia began to face increasing opposition, with resources stretching thin and political will growing yet.<br>
<br>
►The Zhivan establishment's worst fears would be realized when it came out that a slew of progressive and capitalist parties had come together somewhat miraculously to form 'Blue Star' - a sizable progressive coalition opposing the policies and platforms of the ruling government. Chief among their various leadership was Demian Kiryenov, leader of the Russian Progressive party. His youthful charm and fiery criticism of the government has energized the formerly-dead progressive movement - a phenomenon not seen for decades. Indeed, Kiryenov's criticisms over the 'willful sabotage of political transition', 'illegal economic policy' and 'lack of higher oversight' on both Zhiva and Chronus Prime resonated with progressives, who felt the Zhivan government's claim to Federal membership was simply a farce. Now, United Russia and their establishment were forced to reckon with these criticisms as the election season grew near.<br>
<br>
►Nevertheless, political turmoil did not stop the engine of government from rolling onward, and in the intervening years the Republic of Zhiva had grown greatly in magnitude, boasting a burgeoning interplanetary economy and a shiny new group of military ships with which to defend it. Zhivans entered the year of 2460 with uncertainty as to the future, though many were hopeful it was a better one.</span></span>

<span style="font-size: 12px"><b><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">Avatar </span></b><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">of Xwytsau</span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">►The people of the Xwytsau knew not soon after laying eyes upon their new world that it would be the crown of their society. A crown naturally needed a king, and when Valeri Zumadze was crowned on his death-bed, it would then fall on now-seasoned Junior Hetman Leonidze to rule the new Kingdom. Though the responsibility of ruling a vast land and people now rested solely on him, with the Avatar committed to standing by his side, Leonidze would begin his rule with good omens and sound advice, head steady under a gilded crown of twisted oak.<br>
<br>
►To commemorate the successful colonization and the crowning of a King and Kingdom, a series of festivals were held in 2440 to give thanks to the Gods and the bright minds which had brought the colony this far. The Gratitude Festivals, which included massive sparring and sailing events, would become a regular fixture of the capital henceforth.<br>
<br>
►Though the GS-7's innards were now splayed groundside to sow the seeds of the kingdom, a solemn module remained in orbit, provisioned with fuel and other supplies - a gateway to the heavens, should the Alans decide to return.<br>
<br>
►The disparate and disconnected modules of the ship were organized into their own district of governance, separate to the rest of the capital, and given a unique command structure coupled with the connection of its various parts with fibre-optic cable and power lines. The GS-7 was serving as the basis for the colony's construction, but many of its parts had to remain intact in order to keep the machine-spirit in working order, and the measures therein have all been to preserve the function of the GS-7 long after it has been dismembered.  <br>
<br>
►After an initial phase of settlement (and the arrival of many thousands of refugees from the solar system) the capital soon grew too large to support itself, and both King Leonidze and the Avatar ordered plans to expand the Kingdom's presence across Caehzaehh. Colonial charters were mapped and granted based on an earlier survey of the planet which identified ideal mineral deposits and settlement locations. After a somewhat brisk legal process, thousands began to flee the capital to found their own little homesteads.<br>
<br>
►Despite the eagerness to spread out and inhabit the far corners their pink marble, the Alanian people would find no shortage of difficulties in their endeavor. Though a hospitable one in relation to the barren, hostile cosmos hanging above, Caehzaehh was by no means a 'finished product.' - in our day and age, only but the first flora and fauna were emerging the various oceans to colonize the land, leaving most of the planet a barren, rocky place. In order to colonize Caehzaehh, the settlers would need to enlist the help of other, smaller colonists - microbial and plant life saved in the gene vaults of the Xwytsau, as well as samples of native life which had adapted to the planet's conditions for perhaps millions of years. <br>
<br>
►As a result, Caehzaehh gained a perhaps unique quality among the various colonized planets - even the most rural settlements could be seen from space as vibrant patches of green among a pink canvas, interlinked with the expansive tendrils of canals - the evidence of mass-seeding of flora on the bare, rocky inner continent. Slowly, but surely, the pink-and-purple planet would gain its characteristic emerald mosaic as grass, trees and animals from across the cosmos made it their home at the invitation of those intrepid colonists.<br>
<br>
►Eventually, as the portions of Caehzaehh were partitioned and doled out, people began once more to look toward the stars, going out in ships to extract the bounty of Caehzaehh's life-giving rings, and asteroids rich in minerals far beyond.</span></span>

<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'georgia'">After years of tweaking, trial-and-error, and repeated failure to yield any substantive solutions to the sterility problem, a breakthrough was finally made when doctorate researchers at GARI grew a plant which could both synthesize MOTHER and reproduce.

Scientists at the Ministry of Advanced Research have managed to make modification to several varieties of potato and maize which would allow them to survive harsher-than-usual temperatures, at the cost of higher labor and material costs.

This comes as federal authorities prepare to send their hardened probe across Kagami to investigate the mysterious object in its orbit...<br>
<br>
<b>►</b>After embarking on a routine patrol earlier in the year, the Belayevski corvette Admiral Andreyev went missing. Authorities have not commented as to the nature of the disappearance, but many are now suspecting that the ship has undergone 'renovations.'<br>
<br>
<b>►</b>The United Paraisan States held their first 'interstellar' election on June 4th, choosing progressive Sebastião Fontes as the new president of the republic.<br>
<br>
<b>►</b>Foreign secretary Sahand Salehi of the Sovereign Vespan Republic met with Concert representatives at the Blixthammar Aeroplex in May to iron out a trade deal between the two parties. Negotiations are ongoing, but political analysts are expecting that the deal will go through, and could so as early as next year.<br>
</span></span><br>
<span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="font-size: 15px"><b>►</b>The Commerce Executive dominated the news cycle in September after the board announced it would be deploying four military frigates to help quell unrest at the corporate colony on Rhiannon, in the Luxemburg system. After a swift crackdown on colonists' attempts to form a union against their corporate sponsor, the unrest largely died down. Several dozen were reportedly arrested and deported to the colony run by Rosmerta Systems on Rosmerta, Rhiannon's moon.</span></span>

<b><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="font-size: 15px">►</span></span></b><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="font-size: 15px"> Recognizing its own sovereignty and the need to protect its assets, Prime-Minister Johansson announced the establishment of the Fennoscandian Defense Navy in February of 2460, marking a turning point for the republic's position in interstellar affairs. In accordance, all of the republic's existing cosmological assets have now been re-organized under the FDN, including its new military ships. The young FDN would welcome Port Kroon in Henwya orbit as its headquarters - a new and prominent<br>
<br>
<b>►</b>Major and groundbreaking additions to the Blixthammar Aeroplex have been confirmed after a coalition of corporate and government groups came together to fund the project - the Henwya Cosmoloop will be among the largest and most expensive single structures built in the planet's history, and its proponents say it will democratize private spaceflight, much like how the European Launch Ring democratized spaceflight on Earth. Construction began in early June and is expected to finish within seven years if all goes well.<br>
<br>
<b>►</b>In early September Prime-Minister Johansson headed up a summit in Blixthammar between the republic's human and Lengekyo leadership. The summit came as a reaction to a string of scandals across the country involving abuse of natives and systemic corruption. Tai Hyuolyu, mayor of Syugi, Fennoscandia's largest city, spoke and promised comprehensive reforms aimed at curbing nepotism and old-world attitudes. Other local leaders were not so enthused, choosing to criticize human leadership's lack of initiative and understanding of Ryunoyu culture and affairs as a key cause of extant issues in Fennoscandia's majority-Lengekyo communities. Talks were adjourned mid-September, and though change was promised, many in the public were left unconvinced that there was an easy solution to the issue.<br>
<br>
<b>►</b>One solution came later in the month with the announcement of subsidies for the foundation of co-racial communities across the nation. The proposal, led up by a coalition of human and Lengekyo progressives in Parliament, was approved by landslide and put into effect in early December. However, the exact goal and effectiveness of these 'diverse villes' is yet to be seen. With the new year crawling close, communes backed by local governments have begun springing up, their populations largely filling in with those of low income on both sides of the racial coin. Still, progress is slow as these new communities struggle with job opportunity in an economy now dominated by Blixthammar's technical and experiential 'critical mass.'<br>
<br>
<b>►</b>Late in the year, advanced coastal windfarm designs pioneered by SolarCity Europa started to become a reality after parliament approved extensive subsidies for the solar energy firm. With their first big break since the establishment of Fennoscandia's orbital infrastructure, SolarCity has already established over several dozen sea-based wind turbines which are already servicing towns surrounding Syugi.</span></span>

<br>
►Following an international controversy spawned by the Zhivans' declaration of the Russian Federation in the Rubix network, Belayevski president Vitaly Oshankobich held a press conference to affirm the republic's sovereignty from the 'defunct' Russian Federation. Nonetheless, he vowed to work closely with his counterparts down the chain, even floating the possible formation of an official coalition between the two republics.<br>
<br>
<b>►</b>In late February, the great bulk of the Belayevski navy congregated in orbit over Vetrenyy to test the veracity of earlier simulated war-games. In a press conference in held in March, military officials said they were pleased with the results of the war-games and that the new Tigershark-class frigates exceeded all expectations. <br>
<br>
<b>►</b>Proponents of the free market celebrated when in late March the government on Chronus Prime announced that it would introduce a limited run of currency in order to combat issues of motivation and trade. This comes as Belayevski presence in Omicron Subes and across the stars intensifies.<br>
<br>
<b>►</b>The Ministry of Science announced in June that it was funding the establishment of a research outpost out in the Belayevski frontier - by 2463, the system of Tumanyy Zvezda will be host to a small scientific outpost tasked with investigating and researching the Orion Molecular Complex in a way humans have never been able to before - from within it.<br>
<br>
►In the wake of the Vetrenyy wargames held in February, a private watchdog announced that it had spotted the construction of a large military installation in the Kuzmich system - a strategic chokepoint leading to the heart of Belayevski space. While the Ministry of Defense could not be reached by foreign press for comment, many defense analysts did not express surprise at the increasing militarization of Kuzmich - the system has long been the de-facto 'frontier' between the Russo-Belayevski Republic and Concert of Henwya, being the first inhabited system one would cross into when journeying to Chronus Prime, and the last when embarking toward Omicron Subes.<br>
<br>
►In late September, a ground-breaking ceremony was held to commemorate the opening of Chronus Prime's first droid production facility. President Oshankobich was present to perform the ground breaking, and promised in a speech that many more facilities were planned as part of the republic's mission to 'extinguish scarcity' and 'propagate prosperity.'</span></span>

<br>
<span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="font-size: 15px">►In March, several ships in the Board's fleet embarked on a breaking-in-flight to test out systems and weapons, returning to System 01 later that year for duty.<br>
<br>
►A gang shoot-out late last year at Nilm City's largest and most prestigious club sent shockwaves through the metropolis. An investigation launched after the New Year determined that the victim, the club's owner, had been the aggressor and that the shooter had acted in self-defense. The city was shocked nonetheless when the acquitted shooter was killed by an explosion in his own home in late March. With authorities coming up empty-handed for leads, some have now begun pinning the death of the shooter on Nilm City's government. The shooter-turned-victim's surviving family denounced the conspiracy theory, announcing in June that they were suing the manufacturer of their house's HVAC system - the part which is thought to have exploded - for a large sum.<br>
<br>
►The quaint lunar colony on Rosmerta, Luxemburg has recently become a hot subject for migrants seeking a 'faux frontier' lifestyle out in the stars. Cheap transportation to the Luxemburg system and generous Board subsidies of firms operating on the moon have made it an attractive and rapidly-growing hub in Luxemburg, especially as tensions simmer below on the surface of its parent planet, Rhiannon.<br>
<br>
►In late July, independent watchdogs spotted the erection of a significant number of new stations in strategic locations around Eno and down the chain to Omicron Subes. Later in August, the Commerce Executive at large would learn that these new jamming satellites were part of a 'signal defense network' being managed by Salton &amp; Creele. Shortly after the news broke out, a number of prominent firms entered suit against Salton &amp; Creele, with an independent council in the Board ruling that S&amp;C could not unilaterally establish censorship measures in other corporations' common space, and especially not in the vicinity of critical infrastructure. Salton &amp; Creele was able to retain ownership of its signal defense satellites in System 01, but was obligated to dismantle, move or hand over control of examples in the primary operating systems of the suing parties. <br>
<br>
►This decision came as a significant blow to Salton &amp; Creele's ongoing campaign to corner the market of System 01 - an effort that has not been lost on anyone in the system. Nonetheless, a merger with several shipping companies based on Eno was approved in early December, significantly expanding S&amp;C's reach in the system as it prepared to inherit a fleet of freighters and a base of wealthy customers. S&amp;C also announced the formation of a new company that same month - AstroShield, a space-based electronics manufacturer specializing in ruggedization services.<br>
<br>
►In mid-December, a force of customs officers arrived at the Phoenicia-Omicron Subes Rubix to begin their work - the Board stated in a press release several months prior that further security measures would be necessary to protect the Commerce Executive's sovereignty, although many corporations operating across this Rubix have now begun to question what measures the Board may further find necessary. Still, trade through to Omicron Subes is expected to continue mostly uninterrupted, with this new taskforce serving as a simple security check against a perceived risk of foreign incursion.</span></span>

<br>
►At least on the surface, Zhivan space underwent significant political change as its people prepared to undergo a transition back to the <i>Russian Federation.</i> With agencies and government wings dissolved, reorganized and reborn, Zhivans went into 2361 as Russians, witnessing the birth of several new republics and a provisional federal government acting in the name of that one far, far away.<br>
<br>
►The Republic of Zhiva welcomed a new head of the republic as voters elected Leonid Sharonov for the federal presidency, and she too welcomed her new siblings in the Republics of Chernastep, Arktika, and Skobelev.<br>
<br>
►This new political transition also hailed a promised economic transition as the digital currency presses rolled out the fabled Ruble of old for a new century and a new Russia - soon enough, the Russian outposts in Omicron Subes were dealing in Ruble, and taking in heaps of foreign goods in exchange for it. Next to the Common Credit and the Commerce Executive Credit, the underdog Ruble is already rising in prominence by the end of the year.<br>
<br>
►Not unlike for the Belayevskis, this economic transition came at an opportune time for Russians everywhere, as space travel becomes increasingly more affordable more people are venturing out into the vacuum to make their living, or even live there permanently. Indeed - with more colonies per capita than any other nation, the Russians were becoming a prominent presence in the deep expanse of the cosmos.</span></span>

<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'georgia'">►Seeing off a complement of construction ships and crews hailing from the Commerce Executive, the Kingdom hailed March 3rd, 2460 as a day to remember - when Caehzaehh's first major spaceport was christened and opened for operation - one step in a greater chain of efforts across royal space to colonize the empty expanse which they called theirs.<br>
<br>
►The event would only play into the optimism of another great event in late March - the declaration and enfranchisement of an official Spacer caste, thus bringing the ostracized group into the legal fold of the Kingdom, and ever-closer toward widespread acceptance in society. The product of prominent spacers who negotiated a profit tax in exchange for enfranchisement, the greater spacer community hailed the decision as the act of a benevolent Xwytsau and wise King, and spacers from all over would quickly register and integrate themselves in all ways possible - indeed, spacers would be the first to man Port Temur over Caehzaehh, and their ranks were now slowly beginning to grow. This new influx of spacers sees the rapid growth of the caste's already-existing outposts strung across the route from Nog St'aly to Omicron Subes, and they benefit especially from newfangled government assistance as part of the King's agenda to expand the Kingdom's presence in space.<br>
<br>
►While efforts to bring the vast cosmos into the Kingdom's fold were ongoing, there was also a concerted effort by the Royal government to bring Caehzaehh's barren wilds into the fold - royal subsidies to construct groves and temples across the planet are seeing the accelerated 'verdification' of the purple planet as vast swathes of land are committed for religious purposes, and communities across Caehzaehh are benefiting - both for their own spiritual sake and for the influx of money committed by wealth tourists from across the stars.<br>
<br>
►In exchange for further subsidies to construct dedicated granaries and other industrial facilities, communes across Caehzaehh have been tasked with the construction and maintenance of local roads which will one day cross the planet, connecting isolated villages and towns by vehicle and rail where other forms of travel prove too costly. By late December, hundreds of villages have already begun work, but work they will - with so much planet to connect, they have it cut out for them.<br>

►Edenel especially sees to benefit from these royal subsidies, and the capital uses its slice of the pie to begin construction of a droid factory in the city's outskirts. With plans for more to come soon, the factory is expected to be operational within five years, and its industry to be self-sufficient within at most fifteen.</span></span>

The installation, codenamed FREYR, is designed to be docked and integrated into existing station designs or as an independent station with optional maneuvering modules. </span></span>

<br>
<b><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'tahoma'">►Improved PDCs</span></span></b> <br>
<span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="font-size: 15px">The Commerce Executive's greatest engineers, distributed across myriad defense companies, went hard at work with their Alanian partners to design point-defense systems which could stand up to a new age of modern missile technology. The requirements for the systems were stringent, and the designs were <b>[REDACTED]</b>. Due to <b>[REDACTED]</b>, two designs actually resulted - from BAE Systems, the Commerce Executive's winner emerged: a new laser array system for military ships with a power surplus, capable of <b>[REDACTED]</b>. From the Alanian side emerged a series of high-velocity rail gatlings, capable of saturating fire onto incoming missiles, as well as serving as a close-range attack weapon.</span></span><br>
<br>
<b><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'tahoma'">►Project Green Caehzaehh</span></span></b><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'georgia'">Ecologists from the Order of Planetary Enrichment have engineered a type of grass which is most-suited to Caehzaehh's harsh and barren conditions - an ancestor of primordial grasses on Earth, they are easily plantable under current irrigation conditions and should be suited to most biomes across Caehzaehh. A diverse set of tree genomes has also been prepared for eventual planting.</span></span><br>
<br>
<b><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'tahoma'">►Laser Weaponry for the Common Man</span></span></b><br>
<span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Research into the viability of handheld laser rifles has revealed what the Order of Military Thought has been saying since it was created - laser weapons are inefficient, and kinetics rule the day! Soldiers of the Dinsaldat and Order of Planetary Defense continue to use conventional and hybrid firearms, while a true handheld railgun remains out of reach. However, this matter of research has proved amply more useful in the Order of Military Thought's cooperative research with defense companies in the Commerce Executive.</span></span><br>
<br>
<b><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'tahoma'">►A Most Divine Re-Tooling</span></span></b><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'georgia'">Many of our up-and-coming C2 factories are being retooled to build purpose-specific components for expanding the Machine Spirit. While this will delay our efforts to produce more C2s, heads at the Order of Industry insist that the re-tooling will satisfy demands from up-high.</span></span>

<br>
<br>
Comms officer Lukas Ohlson was roused from his sleep by a sudden and harsh report from his station. <br>
<br>
A drop of sweat trickled down his brow - he sat forward, his consciousness slowly returning to him. A vignette of black slowly crept in and out of his periphery as he rocked in his seat. The ache of his muscles and the unexpected pull towards the floor told him the ship was under thrust - perhaps a gee or more.<br>
<br>
Lukas sprawled his hands over the touchscreens of his whining station. Coordination still foggy, he fumbled and backtracked through the labyrinthine UI of his comms station, trying to pull up readings and quiet this rooster of an alarm.<br>
<br>
<i>Another micrometeoroid crossing a planet's distance from us,</i> he thought to himself. <br>
<br>
He envied the hands who were under privilege to sleep at this time, and began to, as he often did, despise the man who designed such a loud and trigger-happy alert system. He worked with a quickness to dismiss and log the alert.<br>
<br>
A cold, dull sensation spread up Lukas's chest as the screen resolved a visual representation of the received radio burst. He only looked in shock as the brilliant false-color image completed before him.<br>
<br>
He tapped into ship comms. <br>
<br>
"Comms to Korpral Olander." <br>
<br>
...<br>
<br>
"Korpral, it's Ohlson - please pick up."<br>
<br>
...<br>
<br>
Lukas's fingers shook as he fumbled with his seat harness. He pressed himself to his feet, holding onto the console for support - he could feel an intense, dull ache in his knees. He stumbled through dark, tight halls full of hardware and wire, his ears pounding painfully to the rhythm of the ship's titanic main motor.<br>
<br>
Finally, he reached a heavy bulkhead adorning the title of his slumbering co-worker. Twelve raps against the titanium door invited the wrath of Korpral Sven Olander - wrath that, coincidentally, invited his attention.<br>
<br>
"Korpral..."<br>
<br>
"Don't ask me to go to go to engineering over that fucking radar. Don't ask me anything - we're under relief, and you're basically AWOL." <br>
<br>
"The-"<br>
<br>
"Fucksake Lukas! Chain of fucking command. Leave me alone." Sven said, still inebriated by slumber. <br>
<br>
Lukas felt the joints in his arm start to give in as he lunged to stop the bulkhead from closing. Looking Olander in the eyes, he could feel the rising anger of his sleep-deprived CO focusing into a beam of collimated hatred. Lukas quickly felt the courage to speak escape his body. He thought quick what to say before Olander resolved to lay him out.<br>
<br>
"-I scooped an ARS. There's imagery." Lukas said with a lull in his volume.<br>
<br>
Lukas saw a falter in Sven's composition. He seemed to ease it up. The two exchanged confrontational looks in silence.<br>
<br>
"Ping it to my station." the Korpral said, moving to shut the bulkhead. Lukas didn't dare interfere. He stood in silence, and then turned to shamble back to his comms station.<br>
<br>
A rush of pleasure came over Lukas when he planted himself back into his seat, taking the burden of gravity off of his knees. He pulled up a report dialog and prepared to send the details of the alert to Korpral Olander's station. Taking a deep breath, he hit the enter key and slumped back in his seat.<br>
<br>
<br>
...<br>
<br>
Lukas felt a hand grip his shoulder. When he came to, the white-lights in comms were on. He felt lighter, and the rumble of the engine was quieter. Arrayed in a semi-circle around his station were the head honchos of the Gryning.<br>
<br>
"Pull it up." Korpral Olander said, his voice now lacking slur. <br>
<br>
The authority in his presence did more to wake him than any alert tone could. He worked at the keyboard quickly, every blunder sending a chill down his spine as the eyes behind him observed. A few keystrokes and swipes of the finger resolved the full spread of data. <br>
<br>
All present stood in silence.<br>
<br>
The calm voice of Kapten Sparv broke through the silence.<br>
"What's the course of action here?" he asked, though Lukas didn't know to who. He kept his mouth shut.<br>
<br>
"Vice-Korpral, did your dish pick up metacode?" an unfamiliar voice asked. A ship of seventy and he'd never heard this man's voice.<br>
<br>
Lukas dug into the radar log and extracted a metadata file. He pulled it up for all to see.<br>
<br>
...<br>
<br>
"Wow - Kapten, it's my opinion that the Vice-Korpral should fire a hail." The man said in amusement. Lukas tried to imagine the Kapten's reaction without looking back.<br>
<br>
"Have at it then, Ohlson." Kapten Sparv said. Lukas hesitated at such a sudden permission. <br>
<br>
With a hail of keystrokes, Lukas began to compose a broad-band ping to the radio object.</span></span><br>

"Is this the right decision?" Kapten Sparv said, his voice even more reserved than usual.<br>
<br>
The man Lukas didn't recognize spoke then -<br>

"Kapten, I fear if we ignore it, we're simply sticking our heads in the sand."<br>

"Send it, Ohlson." Sparv said.<br>

Lukas took a deep breath, and then hit enter.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="font-size: 15px"><b><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">"-Although details from the government and the ship-owner Republic Star Group have been sparse at best, anonymous sources at the local level told IPG that the search for the Kazinsk wreckage will likely wrap up later this year, with today marking three months since the ship's disappearance along with its eighty-five crew. IPG Journalist Sven Lavanin has been in Zhiva interviewing families of the lost freighter's crew, where some are still holding out hope for a happy ending. As this exclusive story develops, we'll keep you posted.</span></b></span><br>

<span style="font-size: 15px"><b><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'">In news closer to core, Omika Group announced a record valuation at its annual shareholders' meeting in Nilm City this week, coinciding with the settlement of its long-running bid to establish a trade station in treaty space.

<span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Sigayev waved his hand, powering the television off and bathing his office in darkness</span></span><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><br>
Another gentle rap of knuckles echoed from the door.<br>
<br>
"Make it quick." he called out.<br>
<br>
The door slid open, a solid bar of orange light pouring into the dark office. A smaller man, hair slicked back to compliment a tightly-tailored suit, entered with documents in hand. He approached Sigayev's desk without hesitation, the door sliding closed behind him as he walked. It took the magnificent cream-orange light with it, returning the office's dark ambience.<br>
</span><br>
<span style="font-family: 'georgia'">"The reports are back from Raskova." the fashionable businessman summarized as he dumped a number of papers on Sigayev's desk.</span></span></span><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'"><br>
The wrinkles on his forehead creased.<br>
<br>
"Did they find the ship?"<br>
<br>
"No."<br>
<br>
Sigayev exhaled slowly. He stared at the report before him - laser-ink Cyrillic printed on bleached white paper, stamped with a bold and conspicuous red <i>CONFIDENTIAL</i>.  He didn't bother actually reading it - he let the dull typography keep his mind from going off the rails.<br>
<br>
"Where is my fucking ship, Eduard?"<br>
<br>
"What they're telling us is no debris, no impact storms, no craters, and no signatures anywhere in the system."<br>
<br>
Sigayev slowly brushed the report aside, his composition eerily calm. His chin rested on one palm, propped up by his elbow.<br>
<br>
"How do I explain this to the board? To parliament? This is a disaster."<br>
<br>
"It is." Eduard simply said.<br>
<br>
...<br>
<br>
"Why are you here? To tell me the obvious? To give me a hug before the board reams me up the fucking ass?"<br>
<br>
Sigayev's hands were shaking now. He looked up to his younger protege.<br>
<br>
Eduard's lips pursed. "Ser, you should look at the report."<br>
<br>
Sigayev glared with contempt, but his young assistant was quite well used to it. He brought the report back in front of him and began to read. Sigayev went sparingly over the printed paper, and Eduard stood silently as minutes passed.<br>
<br>
Sigayev drew a sharp breath, meeting Eduard's gaze. He returned with a knowing look, assuring Sigayev's expression of surprise, confusion, and, perhaps, fear.<br>
<br>
"Who gave you this?"<br>
<br>
"Proprietary Ops, ser." Eduard answered calmly, easing the tapping of his foot.<br>
<br>
"Get Sharonov on the line. In the iso booth." Sigayev said sternly.<br>
<br>
"I'll have it ready in five, Mr. Sigayev." Eduard said, then turning to exit.<br>
<br>
The bright orange glow of the lobby briefly illuminated the numerous wrinkles on Yuri Sigayev's face. He stared at those laser-ink letters. The lowest tech for the highest confidentiality.<br>
<br>
Sigayev reached for his liquor cab and uncapped a fresh bottle.</span></span></span><br></div>
