Description:
In a near fatal accident, a test rocket from private spaceflight company, SpaceQ, spontaneously blew up on the launchpad, critically injuring a few nearby workers. Angry protestors have barged into your office demanding action be taken.
Choice #1:
"It looked as if a nuclear bomb had exploded!" says @@RANDOMNAME@@, a particularly startled observer of the catastrophe. "These private companies and their reckless CEOs cheap out on safety in pursuit of money, leading to these disasters. This blatant carelessness almost ended the lives of innocent staff, and is completely unacceptable. Pass laws immediately that require more safety systems and crew training, so this will never happen again!"
Result:
Pre-flight safety checks are longer than the mission itself.
Choice #2:
"That's not going far enough!" remarks ex-SpaceQ employee, @@RANDOMNAME@@, who was just recently fired. "This whole space thing is just a big waste of money anyway. Why are we spending millions every year to send these hazards into orbit, just to collect some dust and rocks? The only sensible solution is to restrict the space industry, and then maybe things will stop blowing up in our faces."
Result:
What goes up must be shot down.
Choice #3:
"Let's not be too harsh, now," says SpaceQ CEO and multi-billionaire Elom Nusk. "That test rocket was meant to blow up... I think. Well, in any case, tests are done to ensure that we're ready for the real deal! This minor anomaly is simply paving the way for future success and discoveries, so let's not let it get in the way."
Result:
SpaceQ rockets have a tendency to crumple apart.
Choice #4 (Must have Space Program):
Just then, head administrator @@RANDOMNAME@@ of @@NAMEINITIALS@@SO, the @@NAME@@ Space Organization, walks in. "There's a bigger problem here, you know. It's that your putting a very important industry in the hands of these idiotic CEOs. If we didn't have the space industry obstructed by so many private, greedy, businesses, maybe we could make some actual progress. Oh, and surely a couple more million a year wouldn't hurt, right?"
Result:
All model rocket sets are @@NAMEINITIALS@@SO approved.
