Re: How far will ship design go? How different will ships be

Ah, a level 8 EM shield! Very crafty but you will not evade our optical survey drones forever! Always been wondering if it's "Pizza" or "πz²a". Mysteries of the universe... If you let z be the radius of your pizza and a be the height of your pizza and assume the pizza to be cylindrical, then πz²a g...

Re: Development Update #11: November 2013

I'm not sure if it's been addressed before, but what are the mineral distributions like between asteroids?

It's just a shame that ...

I came across a part I thought was interesting: "Nevertheless, a number of recent publications have rei...

Re: I so badly just want to fly around space.
