I am currently investigating what Brainfreez is on. It is the greatest drug that any man, woman, kobold or pony has ever seen, going off of that everything he posts is pure win.

P.E.A.C.E

Protecting Earth alliances completely ethically.
Ooh, nice. I second Corai's appointment as Terran Ambassator.

1. Mars has been geologically death for the last million years. You're going to have to dig deep to find a temperature difference enough to provide geothermal
2. Mars has a 6 year storm cycle. During the storms, solar power input can fall as far back as to 1% of normal levels, and surface equipment is going to be destroyed.
3. Mars has no magnetical field to shield it from solar flares. A flare will seriously damage any and all surface equipment, like solar pannels.

Due to this fact, I strongly suggest that the main power source of the martian base should be nuclear. A few tonnes of nuclear materials will last ages, especially if they are being supplemented by solar power. Also, the heat from a nuclear reactor can be employed to melt ice, and even turn it into hydrogen, which can be used to fuel our ships. Besides, we can also reuse the fuel or turn it into nuclear weaponry.

Also, solar pannels are terrible at absorbing sunlight. Even the most efficient pannels reflect about 60%. Painting the ship black would make it more stealthy.
1. Hm, that's an issue...
2. Meh, it could be worse.
3. Big problem. Is Earth te only planet that still has a magnetic field?
4. Black paint can be layered UNDER the solar panels, if you like. The idea is half stealth, half increasing the amount of time ships can go without refueling.

I vote we use synthetic adamanite coins as our currency.
Great, now we need a Commitee for Adamantine Needed Data and Initiation (C.A.N.D.I.) or something.

EDIT: I haven't been placed at top? I was the first to request a position! I'll go with...Head Official for Biology, Genetics, and Organics for the Bay12 Lunar And Notably Martian Expedition (H.O.B.G.O.B.L.A.N.M.E. was the best acronym I could come up with).

Acetech has been slow in updating it. I have personally condoned a position, but nothing! If your interested it was the currently unacronymed Deapartment of Arts and Recreation, i.e. the ministry of Culture. Slowpokez, since thats all I could come up with for him.

So, Canada. Anyone have the money to go to canada? a bunch of rich people on 730 this forum culd easily fund a exploration throughout the winter of whoever wants to go. I want to. I live in newyork, we acould all come to where I am, and take up a bus up north for the winter.

Yea I just pm'd him 'bout that, there's like 10 people missing :(

Why Canada? Can't we go somewhere awsome like Hawaii, North Korea or Cuba? Science can be done anywhere.

I completely missed page 4 of this thread, dunno why. I'm finally updating the posts though. Yay.

THERES A KERBAL THREAD SOMEWHERE OVER HERE? DUDE. HOW DID I MISS THAT. KERBAL FTW.

I wish KSP had a mars-like planet by now. Then we could train with it. But they don't. So no.

All of those are tropical, and two out of three have forbidden U.S. (or other) tourists. Many of us qualify as from the U.S.

Hm...what's a better title? First Officer of the Really Great Organic Technology, Engineering of New Biological Equipment, And Stuff, Thing. I need something better for the last T, but the acronym works a lot better. Thoughts?
