CHASEResearch:Lab 1st floor (Propulsion Expert): Design a 3m thruster, using the XL Safe Thruster as a base. Stats: 8000 max fuel use when fully optimized, 10% safety, doubled weight, and as much fuel efficiency as possible.
Lab 2nd floor: 10m fuel tank capacity
Lab 3rd floor (Shaiming Hu): Gym Station duration ($2000)
Lab 4th floor (Specialized for space stations) (Yi shing): Large Sleeping Quarters' duration ($3000)
Lab 5th floor: 4m space clinic. (With light supply usage per person if it increases the duration.)
Spacelab: Space Heatlh Studies (Share results with Toaster)
Design & ProductionNone.
ConstructionReinforce Lab 5 to localize explosions. ($2500) [Lowest priority]
Missions:This schedule assumes the economy will somehow remain stable. If it doesn't, just split the bad economy payload into two even shipments and swap the crew somewhere. If one fails ... turn off the power and temporarily abandon the station.
Explorer II thrust calculation with kerosene fuel:
Thrust = 1.5 * 2.75 * 4000 = 16,500
Weight = 10,916kg
16,500/1.1 = 15,000 (for docking with the station)
15,000 - 10,916 - 225(Taikonauts) = 3859kg / 2 = 1929kg with spacetape.
All launches to be made with spaceducttape.
In case the listed taikonaut is unavailable, please use the next best one.
Crew 1: Tiruin, Taikonauts 1 and 9.
Crew 2: Taikonauts 6, 8, and 5.
My launch 1, Crew 2, Explorer II (2) with docking system, kerosene fuel, dock with Mao Kongjianzhan. Max payload: 1929kg
Research supplies: 269kg (Space Health Studies)
12 solar cells: 1200kg
1/4 Water Recycling System: 400kg
My launch 2, Crew 2, Explorer II (2) with docking system, kerosene fuel, dock with Mao Kongjianzhan. Max payload: 1929kg
11 solar cells: 1100kg
1/2 Water Recycling system: 800kg
My launch 1, Crew 2, Explorer II (2) with docking system, kerosene fuel, dock with Mao Kongjianzhan. Max payload: 1929kg
4m station hull with 4 docking systems: 1360kg
1/4 Water Recycling System: 400kg
My launch 1, Crew 2, Explorer II (2) with docking system, kerosene fuel, dock with Mao Kongjianzhan. Max payload: 1929kg
If everything else went well, this will be a simple crew swapping mission.
Otherwise, send up 1000kg worth of supplies with the crew swap.
If the other shuttle is lost, the station crew will take the docked shuttle and temporarily abandon the station to fulfill the lost shuttle's mission.
Economic Depression total payload:
12 solar cells ($3000)
269kg Research Supplies [Space Health Studies] ($1345)
655kg supplies ($655)
Good economy total payload:
23 solar cells ($5750)
Water Recycling System ($4000)
4m hull piece with 4 docking systems ($2400)
269kg Research Supplies [Space Health Studies] ($1345)
Toaster agreed to pay for $5000.
Tiruin and Taikonauts 1, 5, 6, 8, and 9 will not be training to improve their skills between station stays.
If Taikonauts die in the line of duty, give $1000 to their families. [delayed this year]
In the unlikely event that a crew swapping mission fails, the station crew will receive a bonus for staying out the year.
Other:Aerospace department investment (year 5 of 5) ($1000) (preferred specialty: Fusion)
Use PR on my launch that gets the water system working, if everything has gone well until then.
Vote on only lighter hulls going open source. Nanobots would be exceedingly dangerous in the hands of terrorists.
Trade spacesuit research for ASTRO's kerosene fuel research (start of turn).
Promise not to compete with ASTRO's radio satellites before turn 35 outside of China.
Give DWARF the Agricultural System blueprints for his continued support.
New mission: by the end of turn 35, I'll have had a person living continually in space for five years. (So, five years to start the mission.)
Press conference: $2000
Total expenses: $21,995
