The Western Isles Space Station (OOC, TWI Only)

[Corindia]

so you making the module would be retroactive, that's one of the more annoying things about slotting people in. You could still run a news story detailing how it went down, some repairs being made, or it reaching full capacity, but canonically it's already up there.

There's no specific IC thread just for this, it's been done through news posts so far. We could make one if there were some ideas for an arc, or maybe one offs could go in some of the general TWI RP threads.

Ah I see okay thanks for the tip. Well, I will add it to my factbook then. Nevertheless I will set up a supply mission since the last time that happened is probably a while ago.

On another topic, is talk about a moon base or mars base to futuristic? I mean with advancements made in real life, setting up camp on another celestial body is probably not that far away.

Aizcona is right there, it's really just not feasible.
I made this for Corindia's in character space plans, and even that's assuming no delays + funding doesn't get cut. It's still quite optimistic for nations like ours. That said, talking about or planning those bases? Fair game.

If Scantarbia's contributions no longer exist IC, Ioudaia can pick them up. The new GDPpc cap has given us some extra buying power.

Ok, I believe Altera picked up the arm from him but you can do panels/dissipators

Right. I'll make a retroactive adjustment to my space agency, and think about future posts. Offhand, probably both the panels and the radiators would probably be installed over time, since the station's power or heat rejection needs grow as more modules are added.

So what is the status on potentially sending a telescope into space? As said before, Uprea could provide the launch vehicle in form of its Pallas Rocket, as well as contribute to the telescope itself.

We could do something like this: https://www.space.com/china-hubble-clas ... ce-station
I've noticed that there's not much in the way of celestial telescopes actually operating out of space stations, my assumption (although I can't confirm this) is that there's too many vibrations from the other stuff going on or the orbit would be suboptimal

[Uprea]

So, attach the planned telescope to the already existing space station? Would that be the plan?

[Costavozka]

Interested. How could I contribute?

If the nations still on the map are ok with you having an astronaut sent up or contributing some of the systems then make a newspost or factbook that
