NR'd most likely help if you asked for it.

Nah, Las Vegas has this covered. :)

Not using rocket fuel, using Nuclear Reactor and fusion power. Though it would be good to have some help can speed up the process of the first attempt I did say in my post will be in 7 months to 2 years.

Er, i'm assuming you'd still equip your ships with thrusters... In fact, you could go a lot further with the fuel saved by a mass driver launch. I have plans to build a mass driver/base on the Moon as well to allow for quicker/further travel.

That is not bad, I was thinking of just like the weapon that would go from the Earth to Moon in a one-way trip. :p

Well, a mass driver is essentially a large railgun. We already have those, at least I know that all of my naval ships and land systems use them in one form or another.

Well, as long as you don't go around and kill anybody who doesn't fit your racial ideology like Russia does, you don't have to fear your northern neighbour.

I know, just had the mass driver as a weapon instead as a means of transportation.

As soon as The base on Bermuda is done, I'll be putting research into new forms of space travel. Anyone is welcone to help.
AH, PMT, some FT.


Your test scores indicate that you are an open-minded ultra-progressive; this is the political profile one might associate with a journalist. It appears that you are skeptical towards religion, and have a generally optimistic attitude towards humanity in general.
Your attitudes towards economics appear neither committedly capitalist nor socialist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as a liberal.
To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, a considerate idealistic egalitarian with many strong convictions.

A mass driver on the Moon aimed at the Earth would be a frightful weapon. Currently what you do for space weapons is drop tungsten rods down from orbit and let gravity do the rest :p

The Moon: Nova Roma's improvised Deathstar. FOR THE EMPIRE.

Or we could strap huge engines/halleys on the back of the thing and launch it retrograde to smash into the Earth. Planetary Annihilation, anyone?

I think we do not need doomsday weapons to already plunge ourselves into doom. If you read the post, the start of WWIII is starting up before the second page.

Except it's nearly impossible to get enough metal and fuel and technology enough to the moon to even move it an inch closer to the Earth. The moon's pretty heavy.

No it isn't. The Moon has no 'weight', because there is no gravity on it bar the Earth's. Now, if you knock it a tint bit out of it's current orbit, which is entirely possible, the Earth's gravity will do the rest.

Fool! Ah. Unfortunate. Shame to not be able to control the... glorious Czechs. On the current, outdated map, the Czech republic is in white, which mislead me.
