So those are possibilties which are ...possible. However it's a capitalist society so yes, your Free Trader was built by the lowest bidder and with the scale of the Imperium, it's entirely possible the design is commoditised. In fact, the generic parts would have to be commoditised in order to...

In SOME cases, a hole open to space also negates the artificial gravity. (Star Trek Into Darkness). Be careful out there. Your vessel was designed and constructed by the lowest bidder.

Ok, you made your point. No need to respond.

When I ran the Pioneer Playtest, for re-entry the target module was antirely auomated and, of course, that had failed. The PCs investigated broefly and found essentially an XBOX controller as a makeshift bridge control under a maintenance panel. no prizes for guessing that homage. Would...

It may be more limited than the ship at it's best but when your atmosphere has already vented. I know that; I didn't say melt-down. I said melting. The ship is on fire. A small attitude adjustment makes a big difference at 16,000 km/s.

It would be useful for manoeuver. youre travelling at 1,600 km/s, so let's have the onboard computer make sure you're not going to bump into anything (or perhaps not veer too far from regularly operated routes where you might be unrecoverable*) *Thinking of Pioneer here.

One for a lifer raft seems reasonable, not per 1-2 person life pod. Like the model on the Maersk Alabama (20 people rated) OK, they don't sink because technically they are already "sunk". If your boat is on the surface you have unlimted air. With a spacecraft, the analogy works better with a...

The rule in sailing is you step up to the life raft. Stay with the boat until you can no longer stay with the boat. There may be regulations on the life-pods. They may be large, may have a power planet of their own, at the very least will have batteries, possibly even solar cells.

As we are getting close and I have my shiny new 3D printer... The MAV from The Martian https://makerworld.com/en/models/1019991-the-martian-mav The Artemis https://makerworld.com/en/models/743079-artemis-1-100-approximately-1m-tall Ouraura space plane...

These cannot be underestimated. There’s a fabulous 4th Edition T2K character generator out there. And Star Trek Adventures would be an absolute slog without the online character generator. Same with Cypher. Actually the STA one is best in class. You select which books and regions etc and it...

🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳 I pushed, man, now it’s over to you guys. Congrats and here’s to making more of it.

(Those images are depicting space-adventurers/pioneers from an African state)

I'm invested in the Spirit of Pioneer :)

Seeing this image reminds me of an image I had made for me.
