Tag, if it's not too late to join. I'll get an app up later today.
EDIT1: Does all the stuff that applies to planets apply to habitable moons? If not, I'd be starting at a massive disadvantage... :/
EDIT2: Are these the only planets we'll ever see? If so, I can imagine coming to blows very quickly, and this RP lasting a very limited amount of time :p

It appears we have at least three somewhat dedicated players.

Will there be a date, or deadline, for sending in the first turn?

Looking forward to seeing what the Exploration Team finds....

I wouldn't rush things. Saturday was just a day catching most folk off guard. I thought I might've not been able to post yesterday myself.

The planets can be explored, so its not like you will have one tile for each planet. Moreso several.

Elion is open. Not sure if there is anything else though.

Neizhan, the moon that didn't get spaced and everyone ignored it

It is not too late to join, You mean the planets that have moons? No?
This is the current planets and all worlds are able to be explored
And it looks like you got two worlds left unless someone drops their reservation. Elion a former asteroid and Neizhan a Volcanic moon

In regards to the first question, I meant habitable moons like Neizhan.
In regards to the second, I was asking if we were able to search for planets in adjacent systems or in deep space, since there’s very limited room for expansion as it stands.

No, each habitable moon has its own pros and cons, it does not mean the other moons or the gas giants have that.
No, maybe later depending on how the rp works and I meant it for there be a limited amount of players.

So correct me if I am wrong, but do sponsors serve as event givers and suppliers (if they like what you are doing)?

Personally, I'm planning to build some stellar lifters around our system's primary star, and work on some matter condensation techniques in order to manufacture artificial orbitals.

Oof. This RP got started at a bad time for me. Likely will not be able to post for another day or so. Limited access to computer here.

Sponsors generally put the mission's laws and culture in place.

My understanding is that, until the sponsors get to the system, the colonies are on their own.

I don't see why there couldn't be expansion beyond the Tiria system, but one part of the game is to explore why this system has so many life supporting worlds/moons and starting a new colony is probably a LOONNNGGGG term operation.

True true, the only interaction I see the sponsors doing is communicating, and giving supplies. I dont envision them sending folk over as it'd be like a one way street.

I think it is said in the first post that once ships are sent colonists are on their own, i would normally bother myself by trying to find it but it's late.

They probably won't be communicating or sending anything, either. The Colony Ships were likely Super Expensive, took time to build and used a LOT of resources. Also, I don't think there is currently Faster Than Lightspeed Communications.

Here i found the exact phrase for you

M'kay, fair enough. All the more reason to build a warp gate to allow for eventual reinforcements. :p

There we go, there we go. One more question - I see penalties for not feeding your population, but are there also benefits to having population at all?
